The Quatermass Experiment

I watched it tonight. If you look up the interweb thingy, you will see that the movie version gets fairly mixed reviews. Bearing in mind that it was adapted from a radio series of the same name, I thought they did very well. Obviously, if you are going to put a radio series into movie form, then you should expect a little more than usual dialogue in it. I enjoyed it. They managed to build the tension for the finale very nicely. It was interesting though to see David Tennant playing a doctor that wasn't THE Doctor. Even more interesting to see him enjoying a very un PC cigarette. Somehow though, his Scottish accent seemed a little contrived even though he was born in Scotland..
