Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
IAmASquirrel There aren't many shows that suck more than Doctor Who. Some shows at least have the decency to be good for a while and then jump the shark, but Doctor Who started out as crap and they just tried to put more polish on it over the years.
invisibleunicornninja THIS REVIEW IS NOT DONE -IM JUST SAVING IT WHEN ITS DONE THIS TEXT HERE WILL BE GONE. As of this review, the last episode that aired was the one where Peter Capaldi died and regenerated into the new Doctor. I have a lot of things to say about different aspects of this show, and how I feel like its getting worse over time. I'm probably not going to use a lot of specific examples because I wan to keep this review spoiler-free. I am going to make a lot of generalizations. There may be certain episodes that are except from these "guidelines." If you want to know what I think about a certain aspect of the show, scroll down to see the ALL CAPS heading. CHRISTMAS SPECIALSChristmas specials (and specials in general) tend to be the ones that more people watch. They're usually the ones that fans will show non-fans in order to get them to watch. In the past, the Christmas specials would be the best written episodes. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENTFor the first season Rose was in the TARDIS, she was a bit dumb, which makes sense seeing as there is no way she would fully understand what to do in the crazy situations that The Doctor brought her into. As time went on, and she became more experienced and better at improvising. Martha caught on much quicker than Rose. The reason being their backgrounds. Rose was working in retail and didn't seem to have much of an education, while Martha had been training to be a doctor. This made her easier at improvising and figuring out more complex situations. She still got better at this over the single season which she was traveling with The Doctor. Donna started out as oblivious to everything, but after being told that she was worthless by The Doctor, she tried to figure out her purpose in life and figure out what was going on. Yes, she's not the brightest person to ever travel in the TARDIS, but she tried, and she got better, and she changed somewhat over time. Amy and her family kinda mark where the writers lost their touch. Yes, they all react consistently in different situations in the ways that would make sense according to their characters. Yes, they are all well-acted, and are entertaining, but there isn't as much change in their characters as other companions, even though they are in the TARDIS for such a long time. I'm not saying that it is necessarily bad, but they don't really grow over their time in the TARDIS. I really hate the character of Clara. I know that there are multiple versions of her - I don't care, for this I'm just referring to the main version of Clara who travels with two versions of The Doctor over the course of THREE seasons. It might be because she is a schoolteacher, but she is really dumb. Some of the earlier episodes are clever, but if you pay attention to who is doing what and why, Clara is one of the dumbest characters onscreen. Sure, sometimes she'll randomly make an intelligent observation, or she'll be written as suddenly being smarter because the script calls for it, but she is really, really dumb. In fact, she gets dumber over time. At the beginning she is somewhat intelligent, but over years and years of traveling with The Doctor she somehow gets worse at improvising and assessing situations. She ends up dying because she is too dumb to listen to The Doctor, who is usually right. I actually liked Bill. She was well-written and funny. She was a college student who was unsure of her future, and all of her actions reflect the character that she was set up to be. Her understanding of the world develops during her short time traveling in the TARDIS. I can't believe that such a good character got one season while Clara got three. In the earlier seasons, background characters had actual characters. Ever since Amy and Rory left the TARDIS, there have been very few episodes where the side characters actually feel like characters, which is almost as bad as poorly written leads. Shows like this that involve traveling - especially traveling all of space and time - need the background characters at every new planet or time period or space ship to have actual character. I could give a description of pretty much any group of people that The Doctor encounters in one of the recent seasons, and it would be difficult to tell them apart. In earlier seasons, each cast would have personalities that made sense within their time and situation. Most were distinct and memorable. The poorly written villains and side characters make the more recent stories feel very fake and one-dimensional. The only episodes that I can think of where the settings and characters were really fleshed out are before Clara, like The Curse Of The Black Spot, The Rebel Flesh, Voyage Of The Dammed, or Tooth and Claw. I don't know how many times I can say this, but this is not a show that works well with unbelievable settings.
peevesthepoltergeist-80918 11th Doctors episodes were the best episodes filmed so far.Tthe way that the story links between seasons and the way of connection between The Doctor and his companions. Amy, Rory and The Doctor. The Silence, The pandorica... Steven Moffat must return.
tsargy One of the most non famous and unrecognized series I know, I think every man on this world have to see this before die if he respects himself.Doctor Who can be comedy,action,adventure,horror,thriller at the same time so 10/10.The scenarios of its episode is unique and really smart. I hope will not stop making new episodes every year..Keep strong Gallifrey fans ;)
