How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

It is rather dumb! Compared to the obvious other show it is compared to Mythbusters it lacks a scientific basis. Also really tits and explosions.. so what? Then again if you are coming from your boring job, just been through bad traffic and the neighbours freaking dog can't stop barking. Yeah I see the position of this kind of television show. It is for when you want to switch of your brains :) Hell there are whole themed television channels where you can simple switch off your thinking, drink beer and be entertained. Now what I miss is the sticking factor. I mean really with brainiac you can only say "Hey seen that explosion on Brainiac" and what do you get back "What of the 10?"Some might feel hurt by what I am saying now but it is moronic. I remember that after a good Mythbusters and during I and the ones I life with actually talk about how we would do it? How we can see a thing to work, very interactive!You know that is why it gets a 3, it is entertainment and it works. But you simply forget it exists! It doesn't leaves anything behind! There is no sticking power no deeper thoughts. 3 out of 10 it is!

I'm an American, and to my knowledge this show hasn't yet made it to US TV so I can't actually review it. I've only seen their now infamous clip on alkali metals.Last night I saw the Mythbusters demonstrate that Brainiac faked their spectacular explosions with rubidium and cesium metal. I have to say that I'm more than a little dismayed. Like many people, I'd been taken. I remember thinking that the rubidium and cesium explosions seemed well out of proportion to the much less violent lithium, sodium and potassium reactions. But hydrogen/air/heat mixtures are highly unpredictable, and besides who can argue with empirical evidence?Lying just isn't cool, even (especially) in the cause of science education. There's no greater sin in science and engineering than faking a demo.Now I fully understand that "Brainiac: Science Abuse" is more about entertainment than science, and some forms of entertainment such as magic rely entirely on deception. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that as long as you label it as such.But just as the occasional magician crosses the line when he claims real supernatural powers, so does an show like Brainiac when it claims to be doing real science experiments.Now if I ever do get to watch this show, I'll be too busy continually wondering if what I'm seeing is real or fake to enjoy it. It will certainly ruin whatever educational value it might have had.Shame on you guys.

I haven't watched the film yet, but I watch the series on the telly and I think it is a brilliant show! They combine fun and education in to the show which makes me laugh so much!! If you haven't watched it before, I recommend you to. It is fantastic! They do things like blowing up stuff. In the third series, they do a thing called 'Break or Bounce', and Prof. Myang Lee drops the items. I would just like to say she is absolutely stunning and has a great figure! I kind of fancy her a bit! And her boobs are really nice! Wait till you see them! They are eye-poppingly brilliant! If anyone sees her on the street, can you please tell her from me that she is really beautiful and is one of the main reasons I watch the show every day! Thanks to whoever says it to her. Who else thinks she is stunning? Write a comment back to me telling me what you think of her. I would also like to say that I think she should go on Page3 for the lads! What do you think? I'd love her to be standing in front of me naked right now because I bet her fanny is as nice as her tits! Who else wants to see her naked? Please write back to me saying what you think!

Welcome to "Braniac", the show that lights the fuse to the explosives and runs like hell.People keep comparing this show to the American show "Mythbusters", and I can see the resemblance, but really, these are two different shows with two different philosophies. "Mythbusters" is an hour-long show that takes one or two "urban myths" and (within its own self defined boundaries), actually investigates them and puts some effort into simulating the conditions in question."Braniac" is a half hour hodge-podge where various harmless nerds screw around with chemicals, microwaves, CO2 extinguishers and caravans to kill time in an amusing way. The real charm of the show is that it doesn't take itself at all seriously; the 'experiments' are usually complete rubbish, and their real point is to mock and lampoon the pseudo-significant posturings of many more pretentious shows that would like their posturings to be regarded as High Art.And "Braniac" never fails to have at least one very amusing or striking happening in a given episode (like the time they had a "Challenger" tank fire an HE shell at a 1 ton safe to retrieve the 200 pounds in currency that the safe-makers had locked inside.) (The safe was essentially vaporized, and so, of course, was the money.) Or to put it another way: While "Mythbusters" is light-hearted and pleasantly goofy (and I quite enjoy it), "Braniac" is just plain giddy on its own silliness. The resulting show is a nice little 'meringue' treat (I believe the Brits would call it a 'trifle') of a TV show, a diverting bit of whimsy where you get to see Caravans blown sky high and grown men walking on a pool full of custard. It's definitely NOT for every one, especially not people who don't care for whimsy and British humor, but people who like this sort of thing will like this a LOT. I certainly do.
