Memorable, crazy movie

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

'Spaced' is a show that never fails to make me laugh. With the many, many pop culture references sprinkled throughout, this show is a geek's paradise. The cast is absolutely spectacular: Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Jessica Stevenson (Now Hynes), Peter Serafinowicz, Bill Bailey, Mark Heap. All of the characters are believable and the situations they run into can range from the mundane to the extraordinary. A true template for what a British sitcom should look and feel like.

This show kick started Simon Pegg and Nick Frosts career on our TV and cinema screens. A very quirky plot with unbelievable characters but a great storyline and dialogue - especially if you are a fan of sci-fi as you will be treated to numerous Star Wars references amongst others! Worth a watch - can be viewed on 4oD and is one of the better comedies I've seen, albeit for a niche audience of those who love pop and sci-fi references on their screens. There is a good chemistry between Simon and Nick's characters as well as the female which points towards romantic interest on all parts. This can be watched on many levels as one can simply ignore all references contained and enjoy the comedy for what it is - witty and sharp!

SPACED is a wonderfully written and terrifically acted British comedy. Much of the creative team went on to do the great SHAUN OF THE DEAD. Simon Pegg & Jessica Stevenson have such great give and take, such chemistry - they are a delight. The show is just funny - that's all it tries to do - yes the characters become three-dimensional and you care about them - but the pace of the show is so fast, so brisk, with tons of pop culture references - but the pace is like a runaway train (in a good way) and in the long one, Spaced just tries to make you laugh and they succeed. Little moments between friends, buddies hanging out in front of the TV - this is the kind of stuff the show nails - where you, the viewer, go - that is just like me and my mates when we were just hanging out. The rest of the cast is top notch and the actress who plays the older landlady, Marsha - is brilliant. American TV has bought the rights to this (sadly) and have butchered it twice in pilot form - I hope it never reaches the US screens in its "Americanized" version - where I am sure they will take all the rough edges off and give the typical US TV notes - "we have to like them - we want them to be good at their jobs." "Well, they don't really have jobs." "What??? That won't do."

I only saw one episode because I was on a plane. At first, I didn't like it but it grew on me about cartoonist who submitted the wrong picture to the man who can change his life forever. He has to get it before he sees it. Well remember the Mission Impossible scene where Tom Cruise has to break into the CIA but it's far more enjoyable and there are laughs along the way. The cast is unfamiliar to me personally. I don't get much newer British comedies in America but I think Simon Pegg does a wonderful job as does the other cast members. It's kind of quirky and silly but really enjoyable. I think Simon Pegg goes over the edge regarding the show's comedic appeal. It's not so much about Spaced as it is about average ordinary life in London and the characters who wish they were anything but ordinary and average.
