Title: Our Gang does H. G. Wells
Review: Remember how the gang in the "Little Rascals" shorts would "put on a show" to earn some money and the show would be staged with cheap home-made props and laughably terrible performances? Well that "let's put on a show" spirit survives in the Pendragon version of WotW. Unfortunatly the home made props and bad performances also survived.I really wanted to like this DVD because the idea of doing WotW in the appropriate time period is an admirable endeavor. However, after seemingly neverending shots of men walking (or running) along an unpaved road and hundreds of reaction shots of actors(?) reacting to something other than what was being shown on the screen, my patience wore a little thin. By the time I got to the incredibly bad Thunderchild sequence, I was sure I had been transported to the satellite of love but Mike or Joel and the robots were nowhere to be found.I guess good intentions don't always make for good entertainment and this isn't good entertainment!
