Beautiful Nightmares...

Sorry it's late :(
So, it's time for another review, YAY! After Monday's episode, it seemed this story had all the dark elements and children's elements required, but will part two live up to this?
Well being perfectly honest with you, Yes and No. Here's why...
YES- The acting was superb. Tommy's peformance was heart breakingly brilliant, making it an even bigger shame he is leaving. Julian's was also amazing. The "moving on" theme explored in this first episode gives people at home who may be going through this a sense that it may not be easy, and gives a small insight to the younger viewers that life isn't spoon fed allways...
NO- The defeat of the Nightmare Man. It was TOO cheesy; cheesier than the people who do the inbetween bits, and they are cheesey, but kids will like it, but I didn't. It was TOO "Power Rangery," which ruined it a fair bit.


HOWEVER: this episode was generally brilliant. The whole aspect of moving on was cleverly tied into a very clever plot, depsite a few downsides as mentioned. It's a shame to see Luke and K9 go, but they are coming back.

The little relatonship with K9 and Mr Smith was cute. It made me laugh a fair bit, and you could tell that they loved each other all along. Or is that just me...

OVERALL: a pretty decent episode, despite various downsides...



NEXT WEEK-

Androvax, Dread, and BURPS!

Sidenote- Next week the reviews will be out on Monday and Tuesday, followed by Issue Three of Reverse the Polarity out on the Wednesday. More news soon...
