OK so I just saw MV today at the cinema. I don't know if it was due to the fact that I paid double the ticket price I usually pay and found the cinema to be crap that I think that this movie wasn't all that.

Now not that I remember anything from the 80's series apart from it's theme tune, but I think this film wasn't as entertaining as those episodes were. The plot seemed a bit dragged out at times and the characters didn't really grow on you. Most annoyingly of all this was compounded by meaningless scenes of sex which didn't really contribute to the story line.

My overall verdict: There are generally a crap bunch of films at the cinema right now, and this one just happens to sit on the top of a weak pile. Worth a look if you can get a decent cinema ticket price.
