Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
View MoreIt'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.
View MoreThis film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
View MoreI am so glad they brought this show back again. I loved the one with Drew Carrie as host,MC what ever. I even liked the first run which was British although some of the colloquial expressions made it hard to understand some of their skits. They have a new hostess/MC and have brought back all four of the original actors. Of course there are the guest ones when a regular is not around. What I especially like about this new show are the guests. For some reason almost every one of them tries very hard to interact with the comics during the scenes. Unlike a lot of the old guests who seemed to either be embarrassed or just not have any comedic talent. Even the audience members who get drug into some skits are participating with a will. All of this makes this the best set of the three different show series, at least in my opinion anyway. I hope this one runs for a long time.
View MoreI wanted to like this new series based on the venerable old programs which are still quite hilarious both in the British and later American incarnations with Drew Carey.Alas, Aisha Tyler doesn't yet fit in but she may never fit in. She overdoes her reactions and the men of the program, used to "giving it to the host" for instance Wayne Brady's mock sexual advances to Drew Carey are not duplicated so far on this incarnation. Nor are they ever likely to be, no doubt due to political correctness!Sorry, the chemistry is not there. I don't understand why Aisha can't use her normal voice instead of that affected loud sing-song delivery she insists on. Maybe if she relaxed more she would do better.Go to YouTube instead and watch the old clips which are the real thing.additional comments added 9/16/16: I think that maybe they are finding better ways for the long-time familiar players to interact with Ms. Tyler and she seems to be giving up her affected delivery which never worked. Speaking of her supposed Trans-sexuality for comedic purposes works for the present and if that can be related to her supposed "bossiness" I think they might succeed where they didn't before!
View MoreWhose Line is one of my all time favorite shows. The old version at least. The new version is slightly less funny and much more annoying. I love Ryan, Colin, and Wayne, and their comedy level hasn't changed. I still find myself crying from laughter throughout the show. However, the new host, Aisha Tyler, isn't the least bit as funny as Drew Carey was. The whole cast was much more comfortable with each other when he was the host. Things like the "Irish Drinking Song" game were always my favorite when the guys would pull jokes usually making Drew Carey the butt of it. The guys are no where near comfortable enough with Aisha to make those jokes. And she isn't comfortable with them to do the same. She is more like a detached game show host than someone who could be involved in the hilarious Whose Line remake she was lucky to be a part of. Lastly, I can't stand this new celebrity guest thing they're doing. They don't actually do anything as it is and they're only there to promote their own shows which is just annoying to watch. Although I'm disappointed with the new Whose Line, I'm really glad it's back and I will gladly sit through Aisha Tyler's boring performance to see the stars, Ryan, Colin, and Wayne, do what they do best.
View MoreI don't want to make a final judgment on the revival yet. Don't get me wrong...I love it so far, but it could do better (if you've ever seen the original series, you'll know what I'm talking about). Here's a short list of what I think they'll need if they want to bring back the magic of the original: 1. Aisha needs to become more comfortable with the cast and tell more jokes. I know she's new so I'll cut her a break for now, but hopefully by the end of this season all the awkwardness will be gone. For me, the biggest things are her jokes. They seem flat and safe and definitely unlike Drew's from the old show (granted, he was pretty awkward in his first season too). Haven't heard a "...and the points don't matter. That's right, they're like (something that doesn't matter)." Her unscripted parts (reactions, mostly) seem to be very tame too...nothing more than playful nudges (we need full-on attacks like Carey gave us in the first series). I am a hugggge Archer fan so I know Aisha is capable of being funny.2. Change the ending format. I know in the first few seasons (maybe just the first) of the original series they did what this series is doing now...the "winner" reads the credits. This needs to stop and they need to get the "final game with the host" going again. This will make Aisha more comfortable with the cast and give us more jokes. Also, what's up with the no "Irish Drinking Song"s? That, World's Worst and Props are always the best three to finish a show off with.3. Stop with the lame guests and bring back Proops. Firstly, the guests are awkward and are nothing more than eye candy. OK, the Glee kid was fun, but that was the exception, not the rule. Most of them stand around, confused and shy and it just pains me to watch it. If you bring in a guest, make sure they're down like a clown Charlie Brown. Also, Greg Proops was always the funniest fourth in the original series and it will greatly sadden me if they don't use him at all in this one.
