I came across this series again on dailymotion, and I'm so glad I did. I loved this show, and I still do.

The attention to detail, the models, the engineering, the music, the futuristic designs, the clothing, just wow! This show was, and still IS a masterpiece. As another review here mentions, Gerry and Sylvia and team created an entire world, and everything in it for every type of adventure.

I'd recommend this show to anyone, of any age, from any generation. Though it does reflect the time it was made in, it also reaches into the future, remaining relevant and relatable almost 60 years later. Do, do read the background info and the trivia facts about the making of the show, it'll add to your experience overall.

I'm so glad my parents introduced me to this when I was a child, and hope you enjoy it too.

I like this movie, enough to watch it more than once. You get a real feel for the main character's situation, the competition, rivalry, dangers, hard work and set backs of this profession, especially then, with a little superstition and clashing between the uneducated religious hicks and the new world woven in. The whole movie has the classic, old timey suspense to it that keeps you watching. Daniel Day Lewis is as likable as ever.

My only criticism of this one would be the sound track, its so incredibly bad. I can't think of any other movie where the music was this ridiculous, overloud, overbearing, and irritating. You'd be able to get the feel for the film entirely without it.
