Reviews

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Matti Kaki I am a long term electronic service engineer specialized to professional video tape recorders. I do also much restoration work with old radios etc. It is just awful to see how they destroy those nice old things removing every single nuance and original paint they have. Even if the paintwork is really good for its age. They repaint using their own colors which usually are too bright and do not fit to these old beauties. Also they ruin labels and texts when they can't do them right. They use wrong fonts and wrong colors etc. Also they change old, beautiful gears and buttons and other things which made the apparatus look so fine. Why? Did they sell those to real restorers or museums? Also the prices are something ridiculous. I wonder if anybody really has paid those huge sums for that bad job. One of the worst was the Nasa helmet they totally ruined.
xchuckyoufarliex It's contrived and clearly the worst of the Pawn Stars spin offs. But it's worse than just contrived - the show is gross. It's truly cringe worthy for one singular reason - the "kowboy" jerk. He's the stereotypical insecure, moronic, mean spirited jerk we all have known too many off. He's not controversial - he's generic. His brand of miserable does not generate hype for a show, it repels viewers. In fact, I lost respect for the business owner - whoever employs, let alone showcases, a jerk-loser-moron like "Kowboy" is trash. Certain people are toxic, and this "kowboy" is radioactive toxic. The show is bad regardless of this moron, but his presence makes it nauseating. I'll watch Discovery, and leave History channel is history as far as my TV is concerned.
Sam . I used to like this show and Rick just to watch the things they find and the way they turn them new But the show started to become fake His prices are jacked up and not real , you can see the fake acting (the customers who are told what to say and how to react) And the crew , I don't care about any single one of them or their fake problemsAnd the worst part trying to shove that trailer trash wife down our throat, not to mention how slutty she got in one episode ( this is a family channel )!!!!! She should either go to some other show like the cheap trailer wife's of Las Vegas or dance on a pole somewhere This show is not worth watching anymore.
Jay McLean I used to watch this program and enjoyed it. It showed people working hard, who had great knowledge of restoration. The first couple of seasons were great, but now it's become the same old reality trash that most other shows are. I like watching something that is informative and shows you something you don't see everyday. American Restoration has grown into stupidity. I don't care about who bought a dog, or who gets in trouble at school, and I certainly don't care about any wedding crap either. I thought this was a show about restoration, not picking out a wedding dress. The entire show now focuses on this kind of stuff. I've stopped watching it since you don't see much about restoration. You just see the item as old and rusty, to brand new. I guess if you like watching a bunch of grown men bickering about nothing,then watch it. Maybe TLC will pick up the next season. I think the low point was having to endure Rick crying about moving. Just terrible.
