I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

I only needed to watch the trailer to know this film is not worth watching. The book is amazing. Read that instead.

This movie can be summed up with the following: "I've come to fix all your problems." "Yay" "You actually thought I would save humanity, trolololol. Not our fault though." *Refuses to give any further information.* "Its OK dude. If you need to exterminate humanity I understand."

I am a pretty avid reader, so when I read a book, it is nearly impossible, when it is adapted to film, to separate the two and to not compare. The book, in all cases, has been, will always be, better then what can be reproduced on film. Even if it is followed exactly.I did not read the book before I saw Childhoods end. So I review this film strictly as a film. I have seen enough reproductions now that I believe I would always, if I had the choice, rather see the screen version first. Then the book. Rather then the other way around.I have always been fascinated by the science vs. spirituality debate and essentially that is what this film is contemplating.The choreography and camera use was excellently done, with many creative uses. The script/screenplay was just cerebral enough to add credibility but not confound even the simplest watcher. For a sci-fi the special effects were minimally used or needed, but was sufficiently applied realistically, but was also kept simple and effective.The pace applied a nice slow burn, with twists and turns to keep the audience interested and surprised.The acting was well done, the characters full and evoked emotions.Although it may offend people who are wanting this film to represent the book, I can appreciate the film, for just what it presented. Which was good entertainment and enjoyment of the journey it took me on and a contemplation of an age old question.

The first of 3 discs was spot on--crisp, engaging, well produced and compelling. Truly promising with wonderful special effects. All of a sudden, as if the flush lever were hit, disc 2 swirls into nonsense and turgid drama, descending rapidly through disc 3. The story gets absolutely derailed with Hallmark moments and sappy "love" strewn about like cars from a massive train derailment. The mawkish teacle swirls into strident emotionalism, drawn out sentiment, pointless dialogue, and continuity disasters. Many of the cast are just plain annoying, especially Jennifer's mother, whose tremulous delivery was uncomfortably vulnerable and fragile to me. The series swaggers drunkenly from cloying to banal, from shock to boredom with plenty of nonsense thrown in. (The Devil visually is really amazing, though, despite an emotionally constipated demeanor.)
