not as good as all the hype
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
View MoreIt is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

This classic series of Doctor Who is awesome with each era bringing something new to the Legacy of the. See were it all started with An Unearthly and see where is ended with Survival its a hell of a ride lets break down the eras.Now the first two eras i find really hard to watch due to most of the episodes being missing. However the stories i have seen i really enjoy Dalek Invasion of Earth is incredible and The Tenth Planet is awesome. With the second doctor i enjoyed The Invasion and Tomb of the Cybermen two great cybermen episodes who are my favourite villains now have seen 3rd Doctor onwards in its entirety and its Classic so lets break down then Eras.The Jon Pertwee era on Doctor Who such a classic era and a great part of Doctor Who history Pertwee plays this role beautifuly and this for me is when Doctor Who feels Dr Who unlike the two era's that came before. This era introduced alot of classic monsters that would be remembered by Dr Who fans forever like the Sea Devils, Silurians and the Sontaran which had there first appearance in The Time warrior. This era is also when I first saw the Ice Warriors in Curse and Monster of Peladon such great episodes now there some episodes I don't like for example the Green Death isn't brilliant and I've never really enjoyed Invasion of the Dinosaurs. This era also introduced two of my characters in the whole show the first one being The Master a brilliant villian in Dr Who history and his relationship with the Doctor is always brilliant. The other being Omega who was in The Three Doctors such a brilliant character and has a great backstory and such a great part of Dr Who law this is a character I want back in the New series and I prefer his look in this over his look in the 5th Doctor era. My favourite episodes in this era are definitely the three Doctors and the sea Devils which are just classic Dr who and episodes that all fans must see in my opinion. I also like that fact the Dr is stranded on earth during his era didn't think it would work but I love it and him for Unit his just awesome and makes for some really good stories.The Tom Baker era of Doctor Who my second favourite era in Classic Who and one of my favourite Doctors. This era has some of the best stories in Doctor Who history like City of Death, Pyramids of Mars and Deadly Assassin just to name few. However I think the best story in this era is definitely Genesis of the Daleks this story is just perfect and should be watched by any doctor who fan it's introduces one the best villains in tv history in Davros the creater of the Daleks such a great and interesting character and any scene with him and the Doctor is just pure gold and down Doctor Who's best moments. Davros isn't the only great villian in this era though Sutekh in Pyramids of Mars is incredible and really want him back in NuWho and season 13 is my second favourite season in Classic Who. I also really like the Key to Time season very enjoyable season. However there are some stories I'm not a fan of like Underworld and Meglos very disappointing stories in my opinion and ones I probably won't revisit that often. This era introduces me to my favourite companion in the Classic Run Romana II played by Lalla Ward. I also want to talk about Logopolis which is one of my favourite and I think Tom has the most interesting regeneration in my opinion.My favourite era in Classic Who is definitely the Peter Davison years this was the era In classic who I watched from beginning to end and loved it all now there are some episodes that aren't perfect like Time Flight and Warriors of the Deep but there some of favourite stories in all of Dr who In this era like Earthshock being my favourite Cyberman story of all time and Caves of Androzani being my favourite episode from the classic era. This era also some of my favourite villains introduced like the Tellaliptals in The Visitation and also the return of Omega in Arc of Infinity which is great. Fantastic era all round and Davison remains my favourite Classic Dr.The Colin Baker era definitely the most underrated era of Doctor Who in my opinion I personally like this era and I really Colin Baker as the Doctor think he played it really well I dont think every episode is perfect I'm not a massive fan of Time Lash and Twin Dilema has some issues. But there are some great stories in this era I love Vengeance on Varos and The Two Doctors. And trail of a Timelord, Revelation of the Daleks and Mark of the Rani are great as well. However my favourite story is definitely Attack of the Cybermen such a great story.The Sylvester McCoy era definitely my least favourite era in Doctor Who and still my least favourite Doctor this era has some really bad stories like The Happiness Patrol and my least favourite Cybermen story in Silver Nemesis and Ghost Light is just plain weird. However there are some great moments in this era and some stories I really like for example I love Survival and Remembrance of the Daleks and I really enjoy Curse of Fenric and Battlefield I also think Time and Rani is very underrated and one of my favourite episodes in this era. This era did also introduce one of favourite companions in Ace such a badass character and loved were her story going but still there just are alot of flawed stories and sometimes I'm not a fan of how he played the Doctor although he does have some great moments just a flawed era overall.Verdict 9/10 great piece of British Tv not all eras are perfect but alot of fun to watch and Dr Who is still my favourite show
View MoreSo far I've only seen a few episodes of "Doctor Who". What I've seen impresses me. I interpret the show as a look at how we might respond if suddenly forced into another world (i.e., will we cooperate to do something that helps everyone or will we resort to war?). I also like the idea that the Doctor regenerates (meaning that twelve different people have played him). Admittedly, some of the sets and special effects look dated, but the plot is what matters, and there's plenty of that.The series is one of the favorites of the nerd/geek crowd. The characters on "The Big Bang Theory" reference it, and it's easy to find Comic-Con attendees dressed as the Doctor. It's not my favorite show by any stretch, but I like what I've seen. I recommend it.
View MoreThis series is just too huge to put into words. Classic Who has so many different styles and stories and protagonists. It's amazing concepts and different, iconic things.things that are just common knowledge in our culture today. Eight Doctors. Eight eras. There's just too much of it to put into words. Doctor Who is just part of British culture due to this fine, twenty six season long story of a time travelling alien.Each Doctor's era is very different. They seem to have the same style as the Doctor. The Doctor ran the show, with the exception of the First Doctor (William Hartnell) to a degree, who let his companions take charge. Each Doctor had unique personalities, and the style and stories of Classic Who matched the Doctor they were assigned to.The First Doctor was more of an adviser and let his companions take control, but he was still a crazy, lovable alien just like his other incarnations. The Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton) is my favourite, he's very childish but intelligent and was grown up when he needed to be. The Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) was the earthbound Doctor started off as arrogant and annoyed, but gradually became more loving. The Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) arguably made the show popular and is the most known Classic Doctor. He's also arguably the most childish and always had that huge smile.The Fifth Doctor (Peter Davison) was the youngest Classic Doctor, but acted like the oldest at times. He's arguably the most unlucky Doctor as he just wants fun but death surrounds him. The Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker) is arguably (yes, again) the most disliked Doctor due to his arrogance and choice of clothing (not his fault). He was very childish and serious most of the time. The Seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) was the clown to start off with, but gradually got much darker and more manipulative but always remained childish. The Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann) was probably the most human Doctor, and seemed to be one of the most childish but had a hidden sadness and rage, leading into New Who.The TARDIS is the Doctor's iconic time and space travelling machine. It has became so iconic in British culture that if a child sees an old police box, he'll/she'll probably shout "TARDIS!" and point. The Master is the Doctor's nemesis, his Moriarty, who can also regenerate when injured as they are both the aliens called Time Lords from Gallifrey. Daleks are another iconic thing in Britain now, try and find somebody who doesn't know what one is.Of course, these are only brief descriptions and don't go into each era, which usually matches the Doctor at the time. The series is so massive that I could describe it for hours. So impressive. A small concept became such an iconic show. Possibly more famous than Robin Hood, another British achievement.I gave this series a 9 for a reason, though. I believe the pacing is too slow. It's hard to pay attention much of the time as things take so long to happen. This was normal at the time of 1960s Doctor Who, but not the extent this series. As fun and interesting as it is, it can bore me to a very large extent. If only each story was cut in half, bar some of the better paces stories.So a huge cultural thing, but the series itself has a number of problems. The concepts are so genius, though, that these can be forgiven. I just find the series hard to watch a lot of the time. I'll review New Who (2005-) separately.
View MoreOkay I am huge fan of doctor who I love the monsters and the time travels I have been watching new series for a while now so I give the classic series a try I wanted to see the ones from Tom Baker and John Pertwee and Peter Davsen's era so I watch one from Peter's era and I was not let dawn by him so watch Tom's and John's as well The doctors I like from the classic series are the 4th 3rd the 5th 7th the 2nd and the 1st are okay the 6th was my least favorite doctor and as for the monsters their where some monsters from the new series and some I did not know until now so you can I good time watching this series its a bloody good show and full great things my favorite episodes are the ones with the Daleks and the Cyberman The tomb of The Cyberman was outstanding watch and I watch bit more the classic series because I have seen almost all the episodes from season 3 from the new series and to me I think the classic series is good as the new series I give this a 10 out of 10 for outstanding work.
