1.0 out of 5 stars Awful, Jul 13 2004
By Richard U. Newell (West Des Moines, IA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Avengers (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
So bad. Watch the 60's TV episodes as they have come out on VHS and DVD but don't touch this with a 10ft pole.

5.0 out of 5 stars Steed & Mrs.Peel, Good to Have you Back !, Jul 2 2004
This review is from: Avengers, the (VHS Tape)
Totally misunderstood movie. A unique and visually stunning film with fantastic costume and set design. Ralph Fiennes was superb as British secret John Steed and gave the character some much needed sex appeal which in my opinion was sadly lacking in the original series. Eileen Atkins produced a classic 60s Avengers style character with her portrayal of 'Alice'. Sadly the Avengers does appear to have been very badly hacked in the editing room at the 11th hour and would certainly benifit from a release of the full length version. 'The Avengers' stayed true to the spirit of the original TV series and visually even improved upon it - Uma Thurman looked almost edible as Mrs. Peel. A fun and highly entertaining movie if you don't take it too seriously. I for one don't know what all the critical fuss is about.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost Kill Bill Uma, May 22 2004
By Richard Young "CINE 2" (California, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Avengers (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
WARNING: Even though the packaging says it includes 6 trailers, There is only one. Appearantly the other five trailers are included on a CD which is no longer part of the latest DVD release.

I loved this movie. The photography is crisp and beautiful. And there are some Uma Kill Bill action. If you are an Uma Kill Bill fan, you'll enjoy this movie much more than what the critics are saying.

2.0 out of 5 stars Uma Thurman......Purr.
I found the dialogue in this film - quite dreary. On the other hand, I was infatuated with Uma Thurman in her cat-suit. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Amiable Nonsense
It would seem that many of the people who reviewed this movie are unfamiliar with the original tv series and, as such, don't 'get it'. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars The Avengers: How Not To Make A Film.
This film is absolutely amazing. Watch it and simply stare in awe at how terrible it really is. Hollywood still hasn't got the hint that you do not make movies out of old tv... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Steed starts seeing double, Emma discusses the weather.
This movie was actually my first exposure to the Avengers, and although it has received mixed reviews, I am perhaps one of the few that enjoy this film. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars I almost walked out of the theater.
This movie is easily on my top-5 list of the worst films I have ever seen. The painful truth of the matter is that I saw this in the theater. What a horrible memory that is! Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible waste of money, time and talent
I loved the original Avengers series. It was a near flawless program; at least until Diana Rigg left. This film bore little resemblance to that wonderful show. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Cliches, One-Liners, Absurd Characters
This has to be one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen. The opening scenes are pretty ridiculous and it just goes downhill from here. The plot is barely discernable. Read more
