Wow! Such a good movie.
... View MoreI didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
... View MoreA movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
... View More.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
... View MoreThis series is very interesting in a few ways. When you watch it for the first time things such as poor acting, 'B-grade' and incorrect casting come to mind.But if you watch it a few times and get a feel for the series and what it's looking at the stories start to become more important.The subject matter being religion, philosophy and conspiracies are controversial topics in themselves and the fact I mention it is bound to bring negative comments. The reason for this is religion and philosophy aren't commonly understood and conspiracy theorists often are less then sane of mind hence they are un-trusted. Yet this is a series that has enough truth to be believable yet does twist reality as all well written series are leaving a more believable scenario then unbelievable.I do agree on the comments regarding the characters being stereotypical made in another comment and there could be a little more originality there however the mysterious character of Vincent does tend to make it more palatable.Overall it's a good series if you like stories. If you watch programmes for acting then this is not the series for you but if you watch programmes for the stories then this is an excellent series - just get past the first few episodes and it wouldn't hurt to look into the main religious beliefs a little, the pyramids, mainstream philosophy and inventions circa 1400AD-1600AD.It also helps to know what the word Veritas means - it's Latin for 'truth', so the title 'Veritas: the quest' makes a little more sense, 'Truth: the quest'
... View MoreI've only seen one whole episode and some snippets but I can't believe its cancelled already! Grrr!!!!! It's currently airing over here on mondays at 9pm on the Sci-Fi Channel. 9 episodes have been aired so far. I am looking forward to watching the ones I haven't seen. What piqued my interest in the show is that Ryan Merriman is in it. He was excellent as young Jarod in The Pretender and I wanted to see him in something more recent. Interestingly, the episode of Veritas I have seen is the one with the young prodigy Alexi. Ryans character Nikko was to Alexi, as Sydney was to Jarod. Well, in my opinion anyway! If you like Tombraider, you'll probably like this!
... View MoreHow sad! Just when the network creates a show that I can watch together with my teenagers they cancel it because what: It does not have enough language, not enough sex appeal? Maybe it's time for a station to take a chance and give the American public some shows that we can watch with our children. Take the chance that we are not all tuning in for sex and violence. Just the opinion of a mother who hopes that our future in America is not to be ruled by sex and violence. Don't get me wrong I enjoy a good drama packed with a little more occasionally. I just don't understand why the stations feel that is all we want. What is wrong with a little "wholesome" entertainment?
... View MoreRelic hunter type shows like Veritas can be good. This one has some fair story lines, and seems to be getting better as it goes along, but the writers need to develope the characters more. The actors need to become their characters. They don't have any depths to their character.Just like the last review, some of the events were laughable. The first episode, I actually found boring.If this series expects to last even as a midseason replacement, the writing needs to be stronger and so do the characters.I am all for giving new comers a chance. Since I've explained their weaknesses, lets hope the producers, writers and actors are listening.
