David McK (3402 KP) rated The Fast and the Furious (2001) in Movies
Feb 11, 2022
And, surprisingly, those later sequels are generally the better films.
I don't know, perhaps it's because I'm by no stretch of the imagination a gear head, but I do find this to be quite slow, incomprehensible, and largely missing the later hallmarks (I refer, of course, to the outlandish stunts) of those later movies, whilst also an extremely heavy debt of gratitude to the likes of 'Point Break' in the plot department.

Otway93 (567 KP) rated Doctor Who in TV
Oct 28, 2019
The original run of Doctor Who from 1963-1989 was 95% brilliant, an almost constant flow of imagination from some incredibly talents writers. From the more you educational episodes of the first two series to the somewhat difficult days of the late 80s, fun was always there, but at the same time teaching morality and kindness. The show also created some of the most notorious villains in science fiction history, with such enemies as the Daleks, the Cybermen and not forgetting one of the greatest nemesis of all time, The Master! The older stories, family fun for all!
Then in 2005 after a 16 year hiatus it returned to a new audience and its original audience. With shorter stories and fewer episodes, the show continues to attract fans worldwide and keep (most of) the original fans happy.
The only real downsides I can think of are some poor writing in Season 22 and 24 of the original run, and 8 and 11 of the new run, and a few poor casting choices, mainly being Bonnie Langford in the original run, and Tosin Cole in the most recent series, but plenty of other perfect casting choices to make up for it!
