Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Hattie I 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.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

StuOz A drama about how Doctor Who came to be on TV.Perhaps the best British TV drama made in years.I like Doctor Who but I am more into US science fiction like Star Trek and Irwin Allen...which also came out of the 1960s. My point is: this is for fans of 1960s sci-fi in general. Not just Doctor who fans.Everybody is this drama is perfectly casted, mainly the guy playing William Hartnell.The Daleks and The Tardis are perfectly matched to how they looked back then.It gets a little sad towards the end, so there is more to this than a sci-fi blast from the past.

Neil Welch An Adventure In Space And Time is a relatively straightforward retelling of the birth of the Doctor Who TV series, recounting both the sequence of events at the BBC which led to it being commissioned, followed by the stories of the early days, up to William Hartnell's forced retirement as the first Doctor.One of the events commemorating the 50th anniversary of the show, it was filmed at the Wood Lane BBC TV Centre before it was disposed of, and is a superb portrayal of the era in which it is set. Exceptionally well cast (David Bradley, best known as Argus Filch in the Harry Potter films, is superb) and affectionately written by long-standing Doctor Who fan Mark Gatiss, this film - which features a number of cameos form people associated with the programme at the time - is a treat for long-standing fans.My only reservation is how well it will go down with non-Who fans: it is a good film in its own right, so one hopes that it will be appreciated across the board.

GenevaDuck One thing the BBC always does extremely well is period drama. In this case, despite the fact you know how it ends, you are drawn into the story of William Hartnell's time as the first Doctor and your heart breaks with his when he is told he is being replaced.David Bradley give an outstanding performance as William Hartnell, an excellent character actor who sees his career in decline to the point he is being asked to star in a 'kiddie' show that is going to make him immortal. Bradley plays Hartnell with all his faults, but he also makes you feel sympathetic towards him. I believe this movie will give Dr. Who fans a new appreciation for Hartnell and his contributions to the series beyond being the First Doctor who seemed to be forever flubbing his lines.I would have given this 10 stars, but the Matt Smith cameo at the end made me sigh and ask "Why did they do that?"

poe426 While I WAS familiar with the David Tennant version of DR. WHO, I wasn't an avid viewer (primarily, I think, because the series simply wasn't being shown on any of the lousy pay television systems to which I'd subscribed over the years). I DID, however, come across the original series at the local library and I checked it out out of curiosity. Like DARK SHADOWS (the original black and white series), DR. WHO (the William Hartnell version) was a low budget but endlessly imaginative affair. For the record, it was Hartnell who made the show worth watching and justifiably his legacy lives on. The final scene, with Hartnell seeing the then-latest reincarnation of The Doctor- Matt Smith- was powerfully poignant- as was the scene where Hartnell echoed David Tennant's last line before his own reincarnation. It's too bad we have nothing similar being done to commemorate the enduring charm of the American series DARK SHADOWS...
