Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Brendon Jones 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.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

8ntnomo I work for a Railroad which means that we work day and night. We are on a twenty-four call basis. Sometimes I would get in at 1:00AM Utah time (which is where I live), but most of the time, I would set my alarm to get me up by 12:50AM just so that I could watch NBC News Overnight. It was the most comprehensive, fulfilled news show of it's time. The "good old" prime time news shows of the time could not hold a "frog's fart under water" compared to "Overnight". When it started, it had Lloyd Dobyns and Linda Ellerbee as co-anchors. Lloyd was kind of a "stiffed" face anchor and Linda had this kind of a "sneaky, shifty" smile like she knew something that nobody else knew. The two of them together made the show unique, exciting and well worth watching. I was sorry to see Lloyd leave and was not sure what to expect with Bill Schechner. I was pleased to see that he was a good replacement for Lloyd. He smiled more than Lloyd, but he filled in well. They had segue's such as "on a reel" and "on a roll" that made the news more interesting and informative. It was a news show like no other. I even wrote the producer and told him that "Overnight" kicked Rather, Brokaw, Cronkite,etc. in the "Mudd". I really can't remember who was on the air at the time, but that is the gist of it. Nothing against the anchors on the air now, but Dobyns, Ellerbee and Schechner were the tops. I really wish they were doing a prime time newscast like Overnight now. Even if they went back to 1:00AM, I would set my alarm to watch them again. To quote the "greats", "And that's the way it was." "And So It Goes!"

cellmaker I'm sure the only people watching this show were college students, but we needed it. All around were the media lapdogs of the Reagan Administration, passing off absurdities as though they were normal. Only Ellerbee and her colleagues got on national TV and said, "Do they really expect us to believe that garbage?" That it was at 2:30 a.m. made it all the more real.That the news show was short-lived was inevitable. But for a short time, while we were going without sleep, we believed a dissenting voice might be possible.And so it goes....

sondheim-1 This show held me together; I'm a videomaker/writer with leftist leanings - and for me this was ground-breaking, one of those moments when everything comes together. It was my peak experience in television - I wish there were reporters and shows like this today. We were all saddened to see it end.One of the elements I liked so much - the apparent neutrality of the imaging - there were segments without voice-over at all. You'd end up crying watching some sort of truth emerge from the screen. We knew it wouldn't last of course...I wish she'd return...

Zorro-3 If only we had a news show like this today! NBC Overnight circled the globe with footage of what was going on at every hot spot. It went on at length about what all was REALLY going on there. Even for its time, it was amazing that they were allowed to be that honest. I can't imagine a major network showing us those sorts of things today. Perhaps WE CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!!Cost me some credits in college. I'd stay up way too late watching the blasted thing. I couldn't turn away.
