Best movie of this year hands down!

Pretty Good

How sad is this?

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

You know the opening phrase, "These are the incredible true-life stories of people who face their most desperate hour and lived to tell about it. Everything you are about to see is real – real people, real danger, real excitement. Get ready to experience the thrill of a lifetime. You are about to witness... The World's Most Amazing Videos!"But what is the excitement in watching people in some of the most shocking and extremely life-threatening situations ever caught on tape or film?, is it because nobody involved dies? or is it the thought that "I'm lucky it didn't happen to me!"?I'm saying that anyone who watches this show must be having either nerves of steel or is a complete Psycho!

I live in the middle of China so I don't get to see shows like this very often except when I'm back in the states visiting family, like now, but I've had a soft spot for these amazing videos shows ever since I first noticed how captivating live coverage of police chases in my native Los Angeles was, and then discovered COPS. I haven't seen more than maybe a dozen episodes of this show, but I've seen enough to know that the videos are often groan-inducing or genuinely frightening and are almost always ruined by the goofy narration. Like John Walsh's goofball, wildly over-dramatic narration of America's Most Wanted, the videos, even the really amazing ones, are almost always accompanied by laughable descriptions, which leave me with the feeling that if you took away phrases like bone crunching, or battered bodies, or narrowly escaped, or lucky to be alive, or watery grave, well, they just wouldn't have anything at all to say and wouldn't that just make for a completely different show. But either way, you can hardly do better for a lazy Sunday afternoon. If the show seems repetitive, you watch it too much. Otherwise, enjoy!

This show is probably one of the worst shows I've seen on the network. I have begun to even avoid its commercials because I still am astonished how its been on TV so long. This show is probably the worst thing I've seen in a decade. When I say bad... I MEAN BAD. The things done are mostly scripted and very repetitive. All there is, is riots and people beating other people up. I just don't understand how this show was even thought about putting it on air, because its just so bad. It's completely ridiculous. Out of 5 stars *****, I don't think I would even give it a star.At all costs. Avoid this show.

This show is really terrible. The same-tone voice, "watch closely as this young lady came so close to death's door". For god's sake can't we watch a wholly unedited, unzoomed, unenlarged, un"slow-mo"ed video clip? The interviews are of no need! "What did you feel when the disaster stuck?" "I'm frightened!". Everyone knows that.IMHO, Max-X was 1000 times better.My rating: -10 out of 10 stars.
