This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
... View MoreWhen a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreThere are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
... View MoreAs others have said the theme song has stuck with me for over forty years now. I was seven and loved this show when it came out. When I've said something about the show to others they usually say I'm confused and thinking of the Time Tunnel but I remember the Time Tunnel as well. Then I'll sing the theme song and they really think I'm confused. And the Time Tunnel was totally different. A serious Sci-Fi drama not a comedy. Not on netflix or anywhere else that I can find but I would love to see it again. If anyone knows where this title can be found please post on this site. I know that file share sites have lots of old programs on them but they are dangerous. I downloaded The Invaders with Roy Thinnes (another Sci-Fi Favorite of mine and got a virus for my trouble.
... View MoreHey, I hate to repeat what has already been said, but' Boy, I thought I was losing it for so many years!! I started thinking I was dreaming of this show....and all I could remember was that jingle that played at the start of the show!! No one could ever remember what the heck show I was speaking of either! Well, it's nice to know us 40 somethings are not headed to the loony bin after all, huh?? Hope to see this show on the TV Land channel one day just to satisfy all of us, and bring back what was obviously some good memories from our childhood. This show had brought many good feelings as a child to remember it from so long ago..especially the theme song. Obviously, we were all a bit too young to keep all the details in the back of our minds unfortunately. I wonder with all the messages on this board, someone will bring it back at least for one time showing, just like for the anniversary of the first showing, maybe???
... View MoreI so want to see this show again. I was also 9 years old when I saw it and the theme song has stuck in my head all this time! I sure wish sometime would put it on-line or on DVD or something! Imogene Coca was a riot as the cavewoman! I've tried singing the song to people to try to make them remember and I've had people look at me like I'm insane too! "It's about time, it's about space, it's about (something something something) the human race)" What were those missing words? It's definitely obvious that Gilligan's Island came from the same mind and sense of humor! If anyone ever hears about this show being out on media please let all of us "boomers" know about it!
... View MoreI remember watching this show every Sunday evening during the 1966/67 TV season. I still remember the theme song as most who have seen it do. I recently bought the dubbed DVD set on ebay as I wanted just to see this show again. What amazed me the most after having not seen it in 40 years since it originally aired, is how much of it I remembered. I always remembered the characters - Heck, Mac, Gronk, Shad, Breer, Mlor, Boss and Clon. In fact, there is a fellow I encountered at work who is of French origin and his first name is Shadd. I could not help but remember this show every time I had connected with this person. Of course, when I mentioned the show to others, they just thought I was strange as no one else remembered it. As a result of watching this show I became very intrigued by cave men and did a lot of reading on the topic. At 6 years old, it did not occur to me that cave people likely did not speak in 20th century English as they did on this show. I recently viewed all 26 episodes and I was amazed by how many lines, scenes and characters I remembered from 40 years ago. The power of television! After viewing the show again it is so obviously Sherwood Schwartz. It is remarkable how much it parallels his other show Gilligan's Island which was in its third season run when this show was on. It's About Time used the same sets, the same background music, the same effects music and the exact same bumper music as Gilligan's Island. The character of Heck is clearly modeled after the character of Gilligan. Heck's speech, mannerisms and physical comedy are dead-ringers for Gilligan. Schwartz even used many of the same story lines and synopsis for this show that were used in episodes of Gilligan's Island - the belief that evil spirits turned a person into a monkey (actually, it was a chimpanzee), the women leaving the village because their work is not appreciated, primitive people's superstitions, a volcano threatens the village (same footage used!), the village holding an election, using modern technology to frighten primitive peoples etc. Seems the writers didn't have to work very hard on this one. I remember recognizing the space capsule in the episode of Gilligan where the cosmonauts land on the island, as being the same one used in this show. I also recall the dinosaur scenes which I thought were very realistic in 1966. Upon seeing them again, they're cheesy and contrived and clearly borrowed from low-budget movies. Even as a 6 year old, I knew that there was never a time when people and dinosaurs both inhabited the earth - the dinosaurs were gone before the first people appeared but I didn't care, I liked the show and watched every week. The thing I remembered most though, is when Heck and Mac brought Gronk, Shad, Breer and Mlor back to the 20th century! I remember Gronk clubbing a Volkswagon Beetle and Breer being laughed at in school (where all the kids were white, well groomed, hair combed and nicely dressed, ah the 1960s...) and picking up the pointer to use it as a spear. I also remember Gronk and Shad trying to get back to "Heck and Mac's cave" in a "car animal." All of this is on the DVD set and much the same as I remembered. I must admit, Sherwood Schwartz did have a knack for educating viewers. It was this show where I first heard, and learned the terms "Prehistoric", "20th Century", "Primative" and "BC" (in the days before politically correctness). For those who haven't seen it in a while, the copies currently being sold on ebay are not good quality but are definitely watchable. I can tell you, the show is typical Sherwood Schwartz so if you liked the Brady Bunch and Gilligan's Island (come on, admit it, I know many of you did), you'll definitely like this one. If you didn't then you likely won't. It is pretty much the same show as Gilligan's Island, just a different setting, but an interesting setting to be sure. I too remembered the term "Gnook" from that episode and still think of it when I see a small dog. Glad I got see this again. It's About Time is likely the only show to actually become one of the props used in the show; a time capsule. It is not only very Sherwood Schwartz, it's also very 1960s. All good fun in this reviewer's opinion.
