Title: Tin Man (2007) Post by: Fausto on December 09, 2007, 11:39:30 PM Finally caught the end on Sci Fi. I can see how some people would be offended by this mature version of the story, what with prostitutes, torture scenes, and sets that look like they came out of a Marylin Manson video, but I enjoyed it. To try and compare it to any other incarnation, especially the original movie, makes no sense since its whole purpose is to take the material in a different direction. Not quite as creative as I'd hoped it would be, and the plot kind of lost me in spots, but it could have been worse.
Title: Re: Tin Man (2007) Post by: CheezeFlixz on December 10, 2007, 12:50:01 AM I wanted to watch it, but SciFi's need to run a commercial every 5 minutes or have crap running across the bottom of the screen made it unwatchable for me. I'll wait for the DVD and avoid the commercials.
I looks interesting and a nice twist on an old story. Hopefully it's better than most of SciFi original productions. Title: Re: Tin Man (2007) Post by: nada on December 10, 2007, 02:31:18 AM Not as good as last year's The Lost Room. That was an excellent show.

Got into a 'debate' at another board about who was hotter: Dorothy or The Witch. I pick Dorothy. |
