A Fantastic Peice of Classic Sci Fi!!
Review date: 2008-09-01 Rating: 10 out of 10
An absolutely brilliant series, much better than the original TV series and dare i say it the original film! Having read all the books and recently watched the previous film and series i believe this to be the best so far. With great performances, especially the prescient twins Leto and Ghanima played by James McAvoy and Jessica Brooks, although i must say i enjoyed the whole cast and thought they all did a fantastic job. This coupled with the amazing effects and music, which although not the best the world hs ever seen does the job very nicely, especially when you think about the budget the series had in the first place.
As with all adaptations of books to screen not everything can be transfered although i must admit i was pleasantly surprised and felt that they had got most of the aspects included, especially the important ones, giving the story the details it needed accurately from the books.
Overall i thoroughly enjoyed this and would heartily recommended it to anyone who enjoys Sci Fi, has read Dune, or even any Asimov or other Sci Fi writer for that matter, as you will definitely be entertained!!
