My Thoughts:
This is a 2010 Lifetime TV Movie... one that spawned a series also starring the lovely Jennifer Love Hewitt. I have been watching the series since it started... but I never seen this movie till now. This movie is apparently based off a true story. I enjoyed the movie quite a bit.... but I definitely prefer the series. Of course Jennifer Love Hewitt looks fabulous... but her character is much more likable in the series then she is in the movie. While a couple of the cast members remained the same from the movie to the series... the majority of them changed. There was other changes in the series as well. But as I said... I personally prefer the series... though that could be because it is what I saw first.


My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

My Thoughts:
I haven't read the book. But I enjoyed this movie. I know the movie is not that critically acclaimed, but I really like it. I have seen it in the past on streaming services. And I decided to add it to my collection recently and still enjoyed this movie the second time around. But that may be mostly because of the 80s nostalgia in this movie.

Tom's TV Finales marathon, a review by Tom


[tom]6867445002891.4f.jpg[/tom]      Misfits: Series Three (2011/United Kingdom)
IMDb | Wikipedia

Channel 4 DVD (United Kingdom)
Length:368 min.
Video:Widescreen 1.78
Audio:English: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1
Subtitles:English


Plot:Misfits
Season 3.08 Episode 8
Writer: Howard Overman (Writer), Howard Overman (Created By)
Director: Jonathan van Tulleken
Cast: Joseph Gilgun (Rudy), Iwan Rheon (Simon), Lauren Socha (Kelly), Nathan Stewart-Jarrett (Curtis), Antonia Thomas (Alisha), Robert Sheehan (Nathan), Matthew McNulty (Seth), Alex Reid (Sally), Jessica Brown Findlay (Rachel), Danny Sapani (Tony), Mark Heap (Jonas), Charlotte McDougall (Woman), Matthew Steer (James)

Not really the final episode of the series, but the last episode of the set I have. I plan to buy the rest also, but I feel that this episode works well for as a finale for the series. Especially as it is the last episode of most of the original main cast.
Thankfully we got some closure for these characters and I am happy that the storyline with Simon and Alisha came full circle.
So far, my favorite series is the second one, closely followed by the third.
