The Worst Film Ever
Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
View MoreThis is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
View MoreThis show is just smart, breathtaking show. I can I agree with few other comments that it is just like a book one's coming addicted to. The chemistry between characters is more than amazing. It is one of the best TV-series I've seen lately. When I am done with each episode I am left with a very good after-feeling. This is exactly what a good show is supposed to do! Actors play well and Second Chance kind of gives a futuristic impression not being intrusive with technologies at the same time. It is still not known yet if the show would be renewed for the second season and I am still hoping for a second chance. I understand that FOX might see itself busy with other shows that it might evaluate higher for one or another reason. You won't regret. I give it 10 out of 10.
View MoreIt was bothering me when I saw the description of this series, I knew I'd heard it before. Back in 1999 - 2000 there was a series starring Eric Close (had such a crush on him) called 'Now and Again'. A husband (played by John Goodman) is killed. He's brought back by a scientist in a younger, genetically enhanced form. Maybe the personal issues are different, I don't know but the premise is the same. I guess they thought they'd give the idea another outing. So although they have tried to make this into a bad guy going through a learning experience to become a good guy (as has been done before) the similarities to the previous series spoilt this for me. I guess I never got over Eric Close :) The smug-faced beefcake who's the main character just didn't cut it for me, not my type! Couldn't get into this at all.
View MoreWhen I read the plot line I wasn't overly enthralled, just figured I'd give it a go. So glad I did.There are some really interesting characters here, most of whom are deliciously flawed, with interesting relationships and interactions between them. Visually pleasing, an interesting extension of technology and software that we already take for granted (and the slightly darker big brother aspect to it with the developers using it for their own ends without conscience) is a believable near future that makes the more esoteric sci-fi storyline feel more natural.The plot for the first episode was a bit 'seen it before', but I think a necessary lack of invention in order to establish the story and give us an immediate understanding of the prime characters. I expect the plots will thicken up nicely.I'm really looking forward to seeing how this develops; early days but has serious potential, for me, the best show so far this year and I'm eager to see more.
View MoreFirst of all they changed the title from The Frankenstein Code to Second Chance. Why? I have to guess they think we're stupid and can't handle such a cool title. And I really enjoy this show from the few episodes I've seen. I like the cast and acting. It isn't perfect but hey, it's only episode 3! Now Fox has moved the show to Fridays. I can handle Fridays, but I don't want them to cancel the show. If you believe the internet it doesn't look good for the show.IMDb gives it a 7.9! I'll give it an 8 and some room for improvement. Other shows are below this rating.The title 'Second Chance' though appropriate isn't a good title. They must have been forced to change the title by a bunch of suits. A show with The Frankenstein Code would pull in more viewers. Change it now! Why couldn't you? But you won't because it's probably too late.I will be sad to see this show go after so few episodes. I've read elsewhere people saying 'There goes Fox again!' It makes it difficult to even care about a show when it may not be given a chance. I really really hope they do. Fingers crossed. P.S. And with episode 3's big and deserved early reveal... should I watch another episode? I will for the cast, crew and what could have been a great run.
