This is truly outstanding. There is a logic and jeopardy to the very concept of time shown in this series which puts it firmly above all other attempts to explore it.
Season 1 was excellent but season 2 blows it out the water. The intelligence and complexity of the writing of this show are absolutely compelling.
I've never particularly enjoyed performances by Caroline Quentin in her other work but I have to say in the penultimate episode of season 2, she undeniably earns whatever awards can come her way.
I really hope they greenlight a session 3 as the show deserves to continue.
The highest quality British sci fi I've ever seen. Long may it continue.

There's something special about the original three movies in this franchise that the two most recent offerings just haven't quite managed to live up to. This film is a massive improvement on Crystal Skull but still falls short of Raiders, Doom and Crusade.
The film's biggest flaw is its length. This could have almost an hour cut from it and not lose any of the story or action. It does however lack comedy - it just wasn't fun. It was engaging, full of action and intrigue but lacks any attempt at humour which previous offerings had in plentiful supply.
Given the time travel aspect, I was hoping for something more clever and plot twisty, but this was more predictable and ultimately disappointing.
The de-aging effects were very good, the action well shot and it was lovely to see my neighbouring Glasgow on film looking fabulous.

Wow. I was not prepared for that. I thought I was going to see a comedy film about a grumpy man who gets frustrated with his neighbours. I did not expect to be in tears by the end - and not tears of laughter.
I did not have the experience of the original book or film so I went into this with no particular expectations. It's been a long time since a movie touched me in this way.
Tom Hanks excels as Otto in a character so unlike any other he has played before. His own son played his younger self which added a level of authenticity to the role. The supporting cast brought a mix of humour and pathos resulting in beautiful and moving film that hit all the right notes.
Don't go and see this without tissues folks!
