| Review : |
Poor old Mr Broccoli. Whenever the writers need some poor devil of a nervous wreck, they wheel out old Reg. He really is a man in a wrong job. The story itself makes some sense, but anything involving the transporter seems to contain too much technobabble. At least it's consistent. The 'it's alive' plot twist seems a bit tired, but that's just my opinion. I really liked the point-of-view shot of the transporter, and the shapeless beings moving about in the matter stream really were creepy. Them turning out to be people was no surprise in hindsight, but it certainly was on first viewing. All in all, O.K., but not brilliant. |
