Interesteg What makes it different from others?

Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

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.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

ebiros2 The series is made by a Canadian company, and has a different look and feel from its Hollywood adventure / action counterparts.The series may have been inspired by Eidos' "Tomb Raider" game that was popular around the time this series was made.Professor Sydney Fox works for the archeology department at Trinity College - a fictitious school in "north east" area of Americas (which can be either in Canada, or the US). She spends most of her time relic hunting that takes her to many exotic locations around the world. She's an expert in ancient cultures, and martial arts. She's accompanied by her assistant Nigel Baley who's intelligent, but aren't nearly as tough as she is. In most episodes she goes into a somewhat scary situation where she and Nigel has to fend for their lives using their charm, intelligence, and martial arts skills. The episodes are much more story driven compared to American made TV series of this type. Ethnic mixture of part Hawaiian Tia Cerrerie, British Christien Anholt, and Canadian Lindy Booth (Tanja Reichert in the third season) is also unique in TV series.What's stellar about this series is it's production. The producers of this series knew what they were doing. The characters, the stories, and the location are all superbly in good taste that holds up to repeat viewing. One very honorable mention goes to the series' cinematographer. You can freeze frame any part of the episode, and they all look like a perfectly framed, and exposed Kodachrome shot. No messed up computer graphics, or effects to kill the atmosphere of the story, and this in my opinion is one of the attraction of this series.Stories are great, acting is great, so no wonder there's still a fan base to this series that's requesting more episodes to be made. If they are going to make another series, I'd like to request the original team that made these episodes come back, because the look and feel of the series was superb.This is one of the best television series, and deserves further development in the future.

tatsu2050 I watch a lot of TV shows and a show doesn't have to have a gigantic budget to keep me entertained. If it's witty, charming and has likable characters you don't mind cheap sets and more often than not bad actors around the main characters. I really like Tia Carrere in this show and... well that's almost about it.In everything I read about Relic Hunter before watching it myself the figures Indiana Jones and Lara Croft were brought up. Let me put it in few and simple words where the similarities lie: * Indiana Jones is a university professor -> Sydney Fox is, too * Indiana Jones looks for relics -> Sydney Fox does, too * Lara Croft got martial arts skills -> Sydney Fox does, tooNow let's take a look at the differences: * Indy Jones is a really intelligent man who knows very much and has to figure out intriguing riddles -> Sydney Fox never gives the impression she is a top professor with a vast knowledge about what she does. When she solves a riddle its more like putting a puzzle together than using a lot of wit. * Lara Croft is just completely kick-ass in everything she does -> Sydney Fox shows some vulnerability here and there (not a bad thing in general), and being kick-ass mostly focuses on the fight scenes.In most shows there is the concept of the hero of the show and the comic relief sidekick. In this case the sidekick would be Nigel, nerdy teaching assistant from England with his slightly distinguished British accent and manner. This would be a good mix if the Sydney character was actually really knowledgeable and kick-ass and the sidekick really nerdy and funny. Thing is they're both just not all that extreme in their ways so you sometimes wonder who plays who's part.The one thing that is really above average about this show are the fight scenes. Those are well executed and pretty often have some slapstick element to them that is actually funny. And Tia Carrere is really good in her role. I'm not a fanboy but have to say, if it wasn't for her charisma I wouldn't have gotten past the first episode.I give this show a 5/10 because of Tia, the fight scenes and the general concept of the show.

new-25 I've just watched the last 5 minutes of an episode of this show. It made me want to kill myself. Why? Because I can see no future for the human race after this. Is this really the best we can do? Can the medium that gave us the Ascent of Man now only give us this? What hope is there!I mean there must surely be a better screen writer working in television than those than wrote this? Or was it written in one of those dreaded "rooms". There can be only one solution to my mind, television executives select specifically choose those screen writers who include no intellectual content in their writing. Why? I can only guess, are they afraid that the stupid will detect it and fear that which they don't understand? Is it a plot by the secret shadow government to control the masses?I don't know, I don't care... I'm off to stab myself in the head with a spoon until I'm unconscious.

lara_5ok I have seen relic hunter for about 10 times and i like it more every time i see it. I love the character of sydney and I surely do like nigel's. I regret the fact that lindy booth couldn't go till the end with her role, cause claudia was the funnyest character. i hope you'll get to see this TV series as many times as i did, and you'll surely fall in love with it, as i did. well good bye and "catch relic hunter", as tia wrote in an autograph once. I'm pretty sure that no one who has seen at least one episode didn't want to see the next too, so...what can i say...watch at least the first one, and the other ones will come themselves. what a coincidence, cause today is an episode from the 3rd series and i may miss it if i stay longer to write to you. have fun and don't forget to watch relic hunter
