Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
View MoreI like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
View MoreAbsolutely brilliant
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
View MoreThis is the end of the human race done right, it doesn't get caught up in how depressing it would be to be the last human and the zanyness gets better and better season by season with season 8 being my favourite by far and the mini-series in place of season 9 being the worst by far, season 10 does a bit of a hard reset, removing kochanski and while the episodes are better than the first few seasons they just aren't as entertaining as they used to be. Hopefully they bring kochanski back soon, she really helped round out the team and add new fodder for comedy
View MoreSuch an awesome show, it has sparked a following around the globe. Especially here in the US.I hope to see many more seasons but regardless, thank you for the show thus far. It has been both entertaining and inspiring.Peace, -Unicorn
View MoreThere have been lots of reviews about series 1 to series 8, and I think it's time to review Back To Earth and Red Dwarf X.Back To Earth, frankly, was a bit of a let-down. The storyline focused more on, well, an actual storyline, and comedy was replaced by drama. And I'm sorry if this is a little weird, but I just don't find the jokes funny without the studio laughter. The ending was also a bit inconclusive.All this left my expectations very low indeed for Red Dwarf X, but I found it brilliant; if anything, even better than all the others. The comedy (and studio laughter) returned. It certainly was a "Hey ho, pip and dandy" moment. (Only people who have watched the series will understand that joke. I feel sorry for you if you didn't.) So, in short: Back To Earth is to be avoided, but Red Dwarf X is to be viewed. Even if it means you lose your legs, you must watch it. Preferably now.
View MoreOver the last few weeks my daughter and I have watched and wallowed through the heyday of Red Dwarf, in other words series 1 to 6 – a total of 36 episodes made between 1987 - 1993. It's still difficult to believe: the BBC made a scifi sitcom on a shoestring budget with minimal special effects and no cgi cartoonery, but with tremendously witty and inventive scripts starring 4 eccentric and diverse characters up against various gimps, gimboids and smegheads which can still effortlessly hit the spot all these years later.In S01E01 vending machine attendant Dave Lister survives the death of everybody on board the salvage spaceship Red Dwarf - and I mean everybody - to be woken 3 million years later from stasis by Holly the ship's original laconic computer to begin his adventures with asshole hologram Arnold Rimmer, snazzy mutant Cat and eventually the eccentric robot Kryten. It's their relentless sparkling interplay that made it all work, they made any period of history or situation funny. So many memorable bits! For instance who could forget Kryten's warning the buzzards and the lizards would be fighting over their gizzards in Gunmen Of The Apocalypse? Or Cat's shock after his call of nature in Backwards? Or What A Guy Ace Rimmer's continuous reluctant disappointment over his other-dimensional self? Or Lister's disgust at his corrupt bodiless future self in Out Of Time? And hundreds more up to episode 36, after that the opposite was true: who can remember anything on the same level from series 7 on? S07E01 was OK, borderline humourless bad taste but had a good idea and of course was the solution to the previous cliffhanger, then the serious nosedive into mediocrity began and it became only fit for the Smegging Garbage Pod. The major disasters were that writers Grant and Naylor had split up, the BBC decided it was worth throwing a lot more money at, Rimmer was replaced with Kochansky and Craig Charles had a few real life problems of his own.A modern era British great: one of the few memorable things created in the '80's but destroyed by ego and myopia in the '90's. At least we have the first 36 beautiful episodes to replay, but as for the rest – Spin On!
