Star Trek: Nemesis (2002)
So nearly 10/10
Some excellent action scenes, funny, poignant and as alluded to in the publicity, has an element of 'closure' (which is both sad and satisfying).
All the cast are on top form, though I didn't find the principal villain entirely satisfactory - more Dr. Tolian Soran than Khan Noonien Singh.
There were wormholes in the plot big enough to fit a starbase in, but I can forgive these simply because it is Star Trek.
Sounded very punchy indeed, and with some excellent visual effects too.
With a better actor as the principal villain, and a couple of the plot holes closed off this would have been a contender for the best film so far. It just feels as though completion was a little rushed.
UFO (1970)
Not so much a review......
Although certainly one of my favorite TV series, along with Randall & Hopkirk of the same era, I can't really add much to that which has been said already.
Except of course to say that U.F.O. will be available on R2 DVD in 2002! The first box set of 4 discs will be out on March 25th (unconfirmed), and the second on June 10th (again - unconfirmed). If the remastering efforts put into the likes of Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet are carried forward to U.F.O. then they should look and sound awesome!
The American Way (1986)
Very Very Very Funny
Riders of the Storm is a little known film starring Dennis Hopper, featuring him as the captain of an ex-USAF electronic warfare aircraft, now dedicated to filling the airwaves with pirate TV broadcasts. Politics, TV evangelism, the USAF, Transvestisism, public access TV: none can escape the cutting observations of this must see film.
