Just perfect...

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Myron Clemons
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

This show may have started off half decent but it ages badly and got old quickly. It seems to just be a stage for some truly vile people who now seem to be the average Joe. The worst part of this show is that it COULD have been so good. I mean think about, people under surveillance 24/7. See the average people put in odd situations and locked away from the world. But sadly it was ruined when every chav, tart and odd mental patient signed up. And in an attempt to be 'ground-breaking' the producers picked them. Learn from your mistakes. Stop making this tripe.I mean did the celebrity version not make enough people vomit for the producers to be satisfied?????1/10 all the way... PS. If you want to see these people getting what we're begging for, then watch Dead Set by Charlie Brooker. Stress-relief...

i am an avid fan of this show, and have watched every series. when it first started out in 2000, it was intended to last for one series and be a social experiment. the first two series were this. from then on in, channel 4 realised that they are better off marketing this as entertainment, voyeuristic and easy to watch TV. they basically shove 10 people into a house and see what happens. as the show has progressed, more and more people are being put in, and the show is lasting longer. now on its 9 series, the show is starting to lose its shine. i think everyone thinks it is repetitive, and they have seen it all before.despite this, i still think the show is great. this series is especially diverse. they have a blind man and an albino, a Buddhist and a Muslim and two immigrants, and a strict catholic. you really either love this series or hate it. a lot of people think it is boring to just watch people in a house, but big brother intrude, and throw some twists in to make it a bit more exciting. this is one of the reasons it has swayed from its original concept, because there are so many new people and twists put in throughout the series.the first series was great, a good bunch of people with one evil fella, nick bate-men, who showed the viewing public how bad and desperate some people are for fame. he said he killed his wife by accident when she was waiting outside. the show pushes people to their mental limits, and shows how strong or weak some people are.in the past they have put some people they shouldn't have put in, such as Shabaz, who was bullied and even threatened suicide. they put in lea, who was a porn star and had body-dismorphia. they put in Nikki, who had suffered from an eating disorder. Sam, a pre-op transsexual, was paranoid, Pete who had Tourette's, and Mikey who is blind. the shows morals and integrity have therefore been called into question 'what will they do for ratings?' is the question that people ask. some people believe they are irresponsible. big brother defends themselves by saying every person who enters undergoes a vigorous physcological analysis.this show is the but of controversy, never being away from the papers. u really have to treat the show for what it is, because it certainly isn't intellectual viewing anymore, this was the start of reality TV, and has now developed a cult following who will not stop watching, i personally recommend it. i suggest you try it, and if you don't like it then fine, but don't prejudge it when you haven't seen it

We are talking about a show which was once introduced with the words "Day 21 - Derek is eating a sandwich". What sort of person carries on watching anything after that.You'll see the phrase "like watching paint dry" through thousands of user comments across this website, on despised shows & films.Never a truer word spoken here though & FOR TWO REASONS.One because it is that dull - although that maybe a tad unfair on paint.But secondly - the day British TV fell to it's knees (and went largely unnoticed). A few years back the housemates (there's better names for them than that - but wouldn't make it through the firewall) had to each paint a bench in a colour that reflected themselves. (I expected 12 grey benches). Anyway - after they finished painting them & went inside the camera remained outside, for several minutes - while the viewer did indeed "watch paint dry".And still the public watched.There is possibly one thing worse than Big Brother. The host. I won't give her the satisfaction of publicising her name (+or benal facial expressions) but we're talking about a woman who once introduced 3 OF THE 6 FEMALE ENTRANTS one year by their name & breast size. Never mind, name & job title, name & achievements, name and ambitions maybe. Nope, name & size of Charlies are all that counts nowadays.

Last fall I got a job outside of London and all I ever heard people talking about was the newest episode of "Big Brother." I was already familiar with the US series, but in America they broadcast an hour time slot, edited, and don't print what's going on in the newspapers.I couldn't believe it when the last season's series managed to break front headlines news. I know the Daily Mail is tabloid, but even then, you'd think maybe real stuff going on would be featured - not the lives of people living in a house being exposed to television.The show is a pain, mainly because everyone in England loves it, even older people, and you can't really go anywhere without hearing about it. Countless films I wanted to see were canceled only to display this message: "Big Brother is running over schedule, our film tonight will be rescheduled." The show broadcasts from about 12 at night to 6 in the morning sometimes, which is insane. I once stumbled across it while flipping channels late at night, only to see people sitting on chairs talking nonsense, the audio occasionally shutting off by error.I just don't get it. WHAT'S THE POINT?! I'm one of those people who enjoys watching people when I'm out and about - just seeing how people interact, go about their lives, etc. (I get it from my mother's side) - but this is plain voyeurism, and BORING voyeurism. Who cares what some loser thinks about some guy living in a house? GET A LIFE! And I thought my social life wasn't the best! At least I don't revolve my conversations around the conversations of random people occupying a house together! Good grief! A few years ago I didn't like "The Truman Show" because it was too far fetched. I watched it again a few nights ago and it's not looking so far away anymore.
