    Nonureva Really Surprised!
    Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
    FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
    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.
    iancollard-89174 I love this series. The expert conservators and restorers are superb at their work and it's great to see the before and after results. The stories behind the restorations can be a little sentimental but that is not a criticism. However, what exactly does Jay Blades do? Other than greet most of the people who bring their beloved but bedraggled possessions to the shop and then share in the praise after the specialists have, in his words "worked their magic", he never is actually shown doing any work on the items, save for lending a pitiful hand now and again. Also, he seems to ask rather naive questions of the experts when he is supposed to be one himself. The programme would work just as well, if not better without him, but he's the current face of the BBC's daytime schedule and in their eyes needs to be given as much exposure as possible.
