WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
GetPapa Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible
BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
patherwill I can't remember ever giving a film, TV show or any other programme of any genre the full mark before and I do so with this show simply because to me at least it achieves everything. Now I know there are going to be detractors who read this who say or think 'how can anyone give 10/10 to such a simplistic piece of reality TV?' Well, if in the reviewers eyes THAT particular show is informative,is amusing,is interesting,has beautiful scenery throughout with people bartering their wares all the way and the two main protagonists so knowledgeable in their field what more can you want? And in MY eyes THIS programme DOES have ALL THAT and more.My only complaints or disappointments was when I found that the series had been cancelled and that, so far at least I have been unable to find it on DVD to purchase.If anyone knows different please add some note as to where it can be found and bought.
Para Normal I love this show, it is awesome! The guys are very likable and they find a lot of cool treasures. I think it is much better than the boring American Pickers, much more entertaining. I also enjoyed the new episode where they journeyed to the UK, it was a nice little change and they found some real cool stuff. I never was really big on reality TV but with shows like Canadian Pickers I can really get into it. I think the finding of old antique and unique items is what really interests me as I would love to do something like this, search old places for hidden gems. It's almost like a mystery cause you never know what you are going to find, it would be very exciting! I hope they continue with this show for quite a while!8/10
Brian-munroe-690-394657 I have watched pretty much every episode of American Pickers. Mike and Frank have a genuine friendliness that makes you want to have a beer with them and come back. The two clowns of Canadian Pickers are barely watchable. When I saw the initial commercials previewing this show, I was excited, but these two Albertians leave much to be desired. Maybe it's because I don't follow the Calgary Stampede or wear a goofy cowboy hat, but these guys are often rude and insulting to the people they haggle with. And I am so tired of the "...and how much would you be needin for this?" line they use all the time. It's enough to make someone throw up. They also try to make it funny. Nice try boys, but no dice. In the east it comes off as stupid. I'll stick to American Pickers. They are likable. It's just too bad they had to pick a couple of cowboys in Canada. Shoulda picked some boys from Ontario, maybe some québécois or east coasters.
AceTheMovieCritic I am a fan of the American Pickers, and watched it quite a bit when it came out. I myself being a collector of books, thought seeing what other people take to collecting as extremely entertaining, and the hosts were quite entertaining as well. Some of the collections they pick, which some would think was just a junk heap, can contain some really old, and incredibly amazing stuff. On a whole, very interesting.Then I heard that they were making a version for good ole' Canada, and truthfully I wasn't sure what to think. I, living in BC, have seen numerous houses packed to the brim with old an interesting objects, that I was sure the pickers would love to visit, but the idea of it just seemed like it was going to be a useless rehash, so I didn't pay attention. It wasn't until probably around January of 2012 when I saw an episode of it, and I must say I was impressed. Scott and Sheldon are competent hosts that are classic Albertans, and a joy to watch. And the picks are also surprisingly good; a show I'd definitely recommend if you were a fan of the American series.
