It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

And is better than both.Lots of celebrities made to do extraordinary challenges.When I first saw this advertised I thought "oh no" but it works no histrionics, no "don't you know who I am" everyone ( except one) got down to the tasks in whatever period they were thrown into.Special praise for Kirstie Alley her knowledge and 'lets get this done' attitude is a 10/10.Historically accurate it really shows what we, the people, had to do to survive in times gone by.Oh by the way the 'except one' if you want to know.......watch the program, its sad / surprising.I do hope this lasts a long time.
