    When 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.

    It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

    I loved this show when it first ran, and wish there had been more than 3 seasons (why did it end so soon - was it too exhausting for the actors?)! I love archaeology (have seen most of the major ruins around the world - 56 countries and counting). Also love Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider, and martial arts, and love that the show had a strong, intelligent, beautiful female lead in Sydney! I also thoroughly enjoyed Nigel, the British sidekick and comedy relief - not an easy part to play! The sets were awesome, the scripts were varied and fun, and they had great guest stars every week. I recently bought the 3 season set and loved it all over again! Wish Tia would come back to TV in that kind of role!!

    What I actually learned from this series is that, allover the world, steam trains are still used and no one, except America and Scotland, ever heard of electric trains. Also, outside America, England, Germany and France, people are still using 1950s cars as a mean of transportation, especially when it comes to taxi cars. Speaking of cars, this is how I know that the Romania related episodes were not actually filmed in Romania, as there was no Dacia 1310 car on the streets, plus the plate numbers were not Romanian style. However, the banners from "Bucharest" were in Romanian and also those used on Hungary related episodes were in Hungarian. Other than that, it was a pretty good show, although I was pretty curious to see, in the end, how Sydney would destroy the infamous Gurel Nataz.

    The relic hunters appear to be able to eliminate normal problems of travelling ! That said , many of the episodes are lively and gripping , and Tia Carrere is always worth watching. It would be useful - but perhaps too slow - if more of the university background could be filled in ( what are Sydney's duties ? Her pupils must find her absences rather trying ) . The series' realism is hampered by episodes in which magic has to be used to get the relic hunters out of trouble , since this chimes rather problematically with a staid university department . Incidentally , who pays for the travelling ? Do they fly Business Class ? Where do they get the exotic foreign currencies ? In other words , suspension of disbelief is essential if one is to enjoy Relic Hunter

    I have seen relic hunter for about 10 times and i like it more every time i see it. I love the character of sydney and I surely do like nigel's. I regret the fact that lindy booth couldn't go till the end with her role, cause claudia was the funnyest character. i hope you'll get to see this TV series as many times as i did, and you'll surely fall in love with it, as i did. well good bye and "catch relic hunter", as tia wrote in an autograph once. I'm pretty sure that no one who has seen at least one episode didn't want to see the next too, so...what can i say...watch at least the first one, and the other ones will come themselves. what a coincidence, cause today is an episode from the 3rd series and i may miss it if i stay longer to write to you. have fun and don't forget to watch relic hunter
