If you already know the history of Formula 1 this will propably tell you nothing new. If you only know F1 from its modern days whatch this.
In any case this is the best documentary about F1 that I've seen so far. The pictures together with the soundtrack are awesome. Mixed with quotes from former drivers gives you an insight how it was and what it meant to be a race drive in the 60's and 70's
I've had a hard time with this show. During the first season I was tempted several times to quit because it wasn't what I expected. When it became what I expected it was gone for good.
What's left is another really good show that had to suffer the ratings dictate because this wasn't the easy entertainment most people are looking for today. This was tough, it showed people in a desperate time doing desperate things and being able to do something they never thought being capable. And when the show ended there where infinite story possibilities.
Exceptionell cast that brings some great emotional character moments. Would have loved to see more of it. Have to rate it as it is, though. That's why I only gave it 7. But had potential to become 9.
I mainly started watching this because of Gilian because I hadn't seen anything from her in a while. She didn't dissapoint me.
As for "The Fall" itself. Well, it's not bad just nothing special either. Yes, it is slow and I think they could have easily done it in a two hour movie format. There are often longer pauses in the dialogue and the camera moves slowly too. So, if you like fast pace and lots of action this is surely not your thing.
I'm not sure if I will watch the second season, a lot will depend on how the first episodes will play out.
By todays standards it might look naive but this was a groundbraking series at it's time. If you only know the remake take the time to watch this. It's worth it.
Whatever you do, do NOT watch the movies (Specials). They are basically put together from parts of the series.
The first is a shortened Version of the three-part "Saga of a Star World" which starts the show. The second is made of parts from "The Living Legend" and "Fire in Space" which are put together rather clumsy and in a different order, in the end telling a different story through large parts.
Yes, this has no Hollywood-like CGI, then again it didn't had a Hollywood budget. But it's fun too see some of the old Star Trek cast again.
Well, it´s Fast & Furious. You know what to expect when you read the title. And it delivers.
Absolutely unrealistic and over the top action movie. LOVE IT!!!!
Turn on your speakers and enjoy ;-)
Feels a bit like Dallas or Denver Clan only a couple hundred years back. I don`t mind the fact that it´s not historical sound because it never claimed to be in the first place. It´s good entertainment.
One thing that is a bit disturbing production wise is that while some people in the series are getting older quite normal (especially the children), which suggest the time that has passed, it is not reflected in the appearance of the main characters as much.
First movie in a while that kept me in front of the screen from start to finish.
Honestly, I´ve seen better documentaries than this. If you´re not heavily into such movies don`t bother watching.
This movie depends on the urge of the viewer to want to watch the end despite it´s confusing back-and-forth plot. I had to convince myself every 15 minutes to go on with it but after about two hours I lost interest. After that it played along without me taking much notice.
An hour and two stories less might have done the trick.
at first I considered not watching this because i really don´t like Tom Cruise. Would have been a mistake to skip it, though.
Personally I think the plot was solid. Not full of surprises but sufficent. I didn´t felt that something was missing. I concur with most reviews that the visuals and score are great (BluRay FullHD and DTS master).
One of the better movies I´ve seen lately.
if you know what to expect from theese kind of movies you won't get dissapointed.
yes it's nothing knew, everything has been seen before but on the other hand an action movie is what it is. Some have decent story lines others don't. Beside that an explosion is an explosion and a gun fight is a gun fight.
If you don't like it don't watch it.
I´ve seen better ones cancelled.
Don´t remember much of the details from the original so I´m not comparing. This one started good but got pretty much two-dimensional very fast. CGI look really bad always felt like people were standing on top of sets rather than in it. Story had potential, yes, but the uninspired pulled it south.
Just finished it. Feels like someone got me a pretty wrapped present which turnes out to be completly empty. I thought this was supposed to explain things instead it left more questions which I believe Scott intents to follow up on the sequel(s). because if there won´t be any this was a tremendous waste.
starts well but becomes agonizingly slow in the middle. i got so bored after about 90 minutes that i lost interest in finish watching it.
I agree, not as good s the first. Still better than a lot of other action movies.
I´m a Western Fan. Although the story is very typical for the genre and predictable this is worth watching. Duvall & Costner are really good together.
If you´re looking for sfx and lot´s of action this isn´t for you. Otherwise give it a try. nice to see a movie about moral and principles from time to time.
turned it off after 20 minutes and even those were painfull to watch
Just watched the ext cut. Actually if you take the movie itself without comparing it to the first it´s quite good. If you like action and CGI you won´t get dissapointed. Story is OK for the genre and if you do compare it to the first I think the story is even better in places.
It is not a must-see-movie but it´s good entertainment.
This is how Overhaulin used to be in the early seasons. Bringing back cars for people who REALLY deserve it. Love it.
i´m no expert in greek mythology but simply seen as a movie it was entertaining. Nothing special though in terms of FX or acting.
had it´s moments.
First two seasons had too much Desperate Housewives for my taste. Thrid season started good than got hit by the writers strike which hurt it badly I think. Fourth season was the best and showed potential for a fith which didn`t come. Therefore I think the Finale left a lot open.
Alltogether not a waste of time watching it but not a show I would want to watch again at a later point.
If you like that kind of movie you´re probably in for a treat.
It´s absolutely not mine therefore the weak sauce
Took me a couple of episodes to get into it. Finished first season now and really like it.
Not comperable to any US sitcom, this is british which you either like or you don´t.
The "guesstars", although only having very few scenes in every episode, are kind of self-mocking (hope it`s the right term) which is cool.
And I really think Ashley Jensen, who plays Maggie, is awesome in her role.
Give it a try.
If you like North American Hockey you may or may not like Don Cherry.
If you like Don Cherry you should whatch this. It tells his Story roughly from childhood until becoming a commentator on CBC.
He always is true to himself, and that´s what I respect him for.
Greatly played by Keeso.
Movie is OK.
But where the original Tron was outstanding, and at it´s time something special, Legacy doesn´t offer anything new. Today it´s just another CGI Movie. It doesn´t stand out in my opinion.
Don`t like the fact they put the Tron charakter in but choose to make him faceless despite the few scenes at the beginning. And the Clu charakter looked kind of weird. Supposed to look like a younger Flynn he seems more like an old one who had plastic surgery.
The grand-grandfather of CGI. Revolutinary at it´s time. Still fun to watch
Cheap Alien look-a-like.
Thin story, weak acting, poor sfx.
The thing I like most about Ridleys movies is the fact that he uses CGI only when absolutely necassary and does as much practical shooting as possible. And he always tells a story. Just watched the extended cut which gives it a little more depth.
I can`t remember a bad movie from him but Gladiator sure is one of Ridleys masterpieces.
