Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
HeyHeyheyKids can't say much that hasn't already been said: insightful and fun little Brit show about three supernatural beings trying to keep their s*it together. as a fan of doctor who, I don't mind giggle-inducing FX and some awkward editing, but here those superficial faults don't even read, given the fun plot and often brilliant writing.Russell Tovey and Lenora Crichlow are fabulous as (respectively) a highly-strung werewolf dude and an upbeat ghost girl trying to make the best of her (after)life, but it's the third member of the cast who gets my attention the most. holy S*IT Aidan turner is hot. he's a terrific actor and is given a lot of range and space to develop Mitchell, a vampire suffering from blood withdrawal in what is a blatant metaphor for substance addiction. but DAMN SON, i can't focus on your monologues n s*it with DEM ANGELIC BROWS and SCULPTED-ASS FACIAL STRUCTURE. in a couple of episodes he's half naked and i swear i literally almost wept...'thank u Jesus', i whispered to the heavens.rampaging hormones aside, watch this show. If gore and relatively explicit sex scenes ain't your thing, then step aside, but pretty much everyone else should find something to like here: engrossing story lines, genuinely funny writing, but above all, believable and hyper-endearing performances from the supernatural trio.I rarely give a crap about the characters of any shows I watch, but with this one, they feel like they could be some of your best buds that just happen to be dead or prone to turn into a wolf.
Robert de Geus This show would have and should have earned a 10.Sadly, all of the original main cast left. The first three seasons are amazing, and it is potentially the best written/directed/acted TV Show I have seen.Really this show deserved to go off with all of the original characters, it deserved to have an epic send off after season three, where we say a goodbye to all the character's we've come to know and love.You need to see it, but trust me, only through the third season.You've been warned, now go watch this gut-wrenchingly good show.
Blacharrt In the mist of shows like, dead like me, True Blood, Supernatural, and the Ghost Whisperer there is yet another show about death, monsters, love and just trying to be normal. Being Human strikes an amazing balance of the shows listed above. It has great acting, location, action, and tons of blood, gore and nudity.From the very first episode the story pulls you right in, you know exactly how the characters ended up being what they are, but further in the plot you find out exactly why they ended up in that situation. You see there struggle to try and maintain normally but being pulled back into the world of the supernatural.The actors are great, and very believable in their roles. You sympathize with their struggles to be more human. Deal with their love lives, and fight to survive against foes who want to see them destroy. While maintaining their secrets.I love this show, and can't wait till season 4 starts.
Iyanola What a brilliant series, but watch out, now in the 3rd season its time to reflect just a bit to the start to ensure that as this evolves it doesn't lose touch with what makes it superb to start with.To answer some other, particularly American reviewers - please remember that this is a British series and all of the characters, situations and especially humour are all very British. The series has crossed the Atlantic, remade in the USA and it is just not "there", similar to "The Office", it may get better but will never be so endearing as the British original. The British production just simply doesn't have the financial backing of an American super-series, so forget CGI and all the bells & whistles, just enjoy it for what it is, a spectacular interaction between the three leading characters immersed in humour that reflects the best of 21st century Britain. I will never forget Georges attack of "Tourettes" in the school.By the way, I remember watching an American attempt at melding Vampires, Werewolves, Witches and Warlocks with all the CGI that the network could muster from its arsenal - "The Gates" got cancelled after its first season even with a cast member from the Underworld trilogy!!!
