Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Scarecrow-88 Another one of those entertaining Doctor Who Christmas specials having Tennant's Time Lord stowing away on board a "luxury liner spaceship" called the Titanic (an alien race from the planet Sto kind of gets a lot of Earth's history wrong, unaware that the very ship that bores their title suffered a rather tragic fate) after it crashes into his Tardis. The captain of the ship was dying and paid off (the payoff to be left to his family after his death) to allow the shields to go down and missiles to blast parts of the Titanic, hovering over the Earth. "Angel" cyborgs are stored throughout for the convenience of passenger tourists but they soon "go rogue", endangering the very ones they were assigned to assist. Who is behind all this…could it be the luxury liner's CEO, Max Capricorn (George Costigan)? Somebody has to be responsible for the major death toll that erupts, not to mention the malfunctioning angel cyborgs violently attacking tourists. Kylie Monogue gets quite a character here as a potential new companion for the Doctor, her fate quite a staggeringly emotional stunner. Lives (including a heroic cyborg) are sacrificed to save the Earth below as the Titanic is set to crash on it. That old revenge angle is mined again as a reason behind all that takes place, with the Doctor having to watch as those he would like to protect give up their lives. This is one of those episodes where the Doctor must endure loss and understand that even he sometimes can't save everyone. With angel cyborgs that hurl violent metal halos at people, a spaceship named Titanic that could very well crash into the earth, and Monogue operating a forklift, "Voyage of the Damned" certainly doesn't fail to provide lots for us to remember. A handful of survivors joining the Doctor in a perilous survivalist mission as a new shipmate tries to helm the ship after the captain is killed once the missiles damage the Titanic devastatingly could remind many of The Poseidon Adventure. With the Doctor having to helm the Titanic to safety as it plummets towards the Earth, we get quite a rousing final descent. This probably isn't in the same league opposite many more show-defining Christmas specials, but "Voyage of the Damned" still has plenty to offer Doctor Who fans. Tennant is obviously having a blast as the Doctor, and there's a great deal of action and special effects dallied out for our enjoyment. I didn't think Kylie was extraordinary opposite Tennant as the "girl desiring to travel" but her character's conclusion is heartbreaking and allows for a major gasp. And the Doctor's desperate attempts to save her, and unable to do so, is a real shot in the gut...no matter how much he has contributed to the safety of many in the face of insurmountable odds, the Doctor can't always succeed.

Slade Doctor Who Voyage of the damned I would have to say is the best Christmas special yet. The special effects were just out of this world. The cast was brilliant the setting was astounding. Kylie Minogue did a great job taking on the role of a waiter on the (space) Titanic. This episode is cinema quality. I was lucky enough to see Doctor Who Voyage of the Damned at the cinemas in a competition that I had won. And I'm telling you the sound at the effects really stand out. David Tennant was very good in this special. I think that the line when he says "I'm the doctor, I'm 903 years old, I'm from Gallfry from the castrellis constellation, and I'm the one that's going to save your lives". I didn't know what the constellation was called so I just put in a random name. But that line is really good with the fire behind him. And also when the heavenly hosts are flying him up to the bridge. All in all Doctor Who Voyage of the Damned stood out from the rest. I can't wait till series four starts. I hope it is just as good as Doctor Who Voyage of the Damned.

Jim Trascapoulos You know, when Hollywood does a steaming pile of explosions and cgi like this, it's called out for the useless drivel it is. Why is everyone loving this episode? It's so poor, so sub-class, so riddled with stereotypes and amazingly cruelty for a Doctor Who episode. And this was a holiday show? Life is cheap now too it seems. Russell Davis seems to want to up the body count to match Torchwood. Frankly, I'd not mind if they were as half suspenseful or clever as the two-parter "Impossible Planet" and "Satan's Pit", but if this is a sign of things to come, it's sooo not. Leave the needless Hollywood violence for Torchwood, hm'kay?

ghpilato This is the second Christmas Special for New Who to really disappoint, without actually being dull, particularly bad, or really horribly offensive. This was prettier, wittier, and just plain bigger than the story we got last year for Christmas, but it still paled in comparison to the hit of 2005's special which introduced the ever more popular David Tennant as the dashing geek, the Tenth Doctor. The primary complaint to be leveled here is that this was a rather tired and very familiar sort of story for Who, all flashy and fun but still overwrought with so many strange notes of high passion when the passion just seems to be all wrong for the moment. It was not bad, just tired. Nothing really new and worthy went on here after the first five minutes passed. For fear of spoiling your enjoyment, I'll keep quiet about most of the details.Great success was to be found here by the production team for Who in making a truly beautiful show, all shiny and gorgeous, but the many witty homages, jokes both inside and out, and great casting aside, this was still just another overwrought melodramatic Russell T. Davies story with some really bizarre scenes involving the deaths of short-term characters and some inexplicably emotional responses to said deaths. If you watch this for the cheap thrills of the Who-ness of some really pretty big-budget Doctor Who on Christmas, then by all means, enjoy. But the thematic, imaginative, and storytelling great heights and depths that have been reached occasionally in the best of the new series are not touched here, merely aimed for - and missed.This was a very pretty disappointment. Frankly, I'm tired of that. The majority of the big themes are undeveloped enough make the justification for epic qualities, unfortunately. Even if it surely justified 12.2 million live British viewers upon first viewing.
