Movie Reviews of Fortysomething
Movie Review: Sweet
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of those shows that people seem to either love or hate. I loved it. The humor is offbeat with lots of laugh-out-loud moments. It's sweet in its own way. I'm usually not much for British comedy but this one worked for me.
I've read reviews complaining about the behavior of some of the people in the family, but what you have to remember is that this was intended to be a series. Character development takes time, and not everything needs to be revealed all at once. It's a shame that it was canceled before there was time to give more insight about the family.
I knew going in that this was a canceled series and was worried that it would end on a cliffhanger with no good resolution. It doesn't. Everything wraps up nicely in the sixth (and last) episode, in a way that almost makes this more like a miniseries.
Movie Review: Love it
Summary: 5 Stars
I happened on this on public television last week and my stomach hurt from laughing. (It was Episode 2, which was probably the best.) I had to immediately order the DVD's. The supporting cast is excellent. I am a huge Hugh Laurie and House fan, but he is incredibly engaging in this. Also becoming a big Benedict Cumberbatch fan. I felt smitten with him in this as the oldest son. Just in scenes where he is smiling at his family, he is marvelous. (Recently enjoyed his starmarking turn in Sherlock from the BBC.) This comedy is very modern and could have had a long run, I think. But then we never would have had House.Movie Review: Fun to Watch Hugh Laurie
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are a Hugh Laurie fan, then you have to see this series. It is fun to watch and is a smart show. I had rented the DVD's but after I saw the entire series, I knew that I had to own it so that I could watch it again and again. Hugh Laurie is amazing and the supporting cast is hilarious. I would recoommend this to anyone.Movie Review: Great fun
Summary: 5 Stars
This was very entertaining all the way through.
Besides the superb acting by the main characters (FAMILY MEMBERS) the
supporting cast was excellent as well.
Purchased this mainly because of Hugh Laurie but was very pleased with
the entire package.
Highly recommend this for all.
Movie Review: Who doesn't love Hugh Laurie?!?
Summary: 5 Stars
If you love Hugh Laurie in "House" then check him out in this British series he did right before becoming the grumpy old doctor we adore. In "Fortysomething," he plays another grumpy, but a little less old, doctor and a family man facing a midlife crisis. It's hysterical and real and Hugh Laurie doing what he does best.
