Great start
tnmerideth8 July 2019
Such a fun and interesting show. This first episode was great and so entertaining! I love movies so much. The eighties was filled with great classics. I would've liked to see them cover some more movies, but nonetheless I really thought this was a well done first episode and I can't wait to see what's next!

They Did as Well As They Could

There were wonderful movies made in the 80's. I recall having a job at a mall. I would leave home early, go see a movie, and then off to work. So as I watched this film, I realized I had seen nearly all the featured films. As a documentary, it focuses more on the people who made the movies than a serious look at individual films. It's more theme oriented than film oriented.

Not the 80s

Quick! Pick a decade that exemplifies the best in what the movies are all about. Did you pick the 80s? No, me either, but let's roll with that anyway. So, pick a movie that best exemplifies the 80s. Make it a great one. You really want to hook your audience so let's pick one that everyone enjoyed. Did you pick Back to the Future? ET? When Harry Met Sally? Raiders of the Lost Ark? The Empire Strikes Back? Silly you, you should know Raging Bull was a masterpiece.

Dear CNN. Although you just lost every family with kids from your audience, picking a tough, gritty picture shows how sophisticated you are.

This review only covers the first 5 minutes of episode 1. That should tell you something.
