Ross (3282 KP) rated Quantum Leap in TV
Feb 14, 2018
Possibly the best TV show ever
Technically sci-fi (Sam is sent back through time into the body of people whose lives went wrong to try and stop certain events from happening) but each episode was a mini-drama in itself with a sci-fi overlay. Whether Sam became a pregnant woman, a struggling aging baseball player or a young man with down's syndrome, Scott Bakula's character had to work out who they were (starting with the standard "Oh boy" in the mirror), and with the help of his hologram assistant Al (Dean Stockwell) what events they would be trying to avoid. Once the task was complete, Sam would "leap" out, each time hoping the next leap would be the leap home.
Truly brilliant and I have nice warm fuzzy memories of watching with my family throughout the early 90s.

Harrison Ford Saves the day?
The storyline is okay, all though we know this could never happen, well at least now, the thought of if it did, would it really go down like this? I don't think so, but when you add Harrison Ford to the mix, it's so worth it. Yes, Harrison is younger then than now, so his skills are in his high prime, which makes it even better.
With an all star cast, Glenn Close as the vice president, Gary Oldman as the bad guy and of course the great Dean Stockwell as the Defense Secretary need I say anything more? Well, yes.
I loved the cinematography for this film, being an film from the late 90s (1997) it really showcased the right time to use CGI. Not saying that some of it wasn't cheesy, yes, but for the most part it's a non stop action movie.
What can I say, Harrison Ford saves the day.
