Best movie of this year hands down!
... View MoreAfter playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
... View MoreIt really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
... View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
... View MoreThis is another fascinating series from Tony Robinson--the guy who used to play Baldrik in the "Blackadder" TV shows. Over the years, Robinson (much like Terry Jones and Michael Palin from "Monty Python") reinvented himself--hosting nice historical documentaries which are a lot of fun. Unlike many of his other documentaries, however, these are less historical and more just Robinson exploring various towns--not just in Australia but also in New Zealand. In each case, he gives some history of the town, walks the streets and meets interesting people and also does a bit about excavations (which is what he often focuses in on in his other series). The bottom line is that Robinson's nice, easy-going personality and the interesting information make this all very watchable--for adults and kids alike. Well worth your time.
