The Movies That Made Us

I learned a lot of fun facts about the two iconic films profiled, but the narration is so annoying! The narrator interrupts the interviews so often it makes it all feel disjointed.

This has so much potential but the way it's edited/narrated is like listening to someone with ADHD tell you a story. It jumps all over the place.

Backwards in time. Forwards in time. Person A starts a sentence. Narrator interrupts. Person B finishes the sentence. Clip from the movie. Back to person A.

It's nauseating.

I did enjoy all four of these entries and hope there are more to come. Agree with other reviewers that the narrator's method was irritating and misplaced for this type of documentary. And the cutaways were pretty lame and unnecessary. But the insider information was fascinating, and I especially liked the revisits to the locations at the end. Why on earth didn't they talk about the most iconic scene in Die Hard, the walking on broken glass? I kept waiting for it. Lots of interesting backstories makes this flawed documentary worth watching anyway.

I could barely stand the narrator and editing of "The Movies That Made Us". In this sister series, it's so much worse. Words are taken out of context from interviews and the narrator here is telling this real-life story like it's a story written for 7 year olds. Some things don't have to be explained word-for-word! While a great concept, the execution is pretty poor. It's baby's first documentary about moviemaking.

I liked these as the films mentioned as the films I liked for the most part, the films talked about are Die Hard, Home Alone, Dirty Dancing and Ghostbusters.

I didnt like the way they edited it, making the interviewees sound thick and the narrator thinking he was funny by making jokes then it would cut to make the joke sound funny.
