Movie Reviews of House, M.D.: Season Three
Movie Review: It's not Lupus.
Summary: 5 Stars
Great picture, great show -- GET IT!!!
House is a great show. I had no idea what I was getting in to the first time I watched it, but I'm hooked -- BIG TIME. Unlike many shows, this one continues to grow and stay "GOOD" at the same time. Many shows hit about 5 seasons and just stink... This show has remained great.
The DVD itself has great picture. I have an upsampling DVD (for what it's worth) and a 1080p 42" TV... picture is better on DVD than it would be on cable, obviously. The special features and "behind the scenes" stuff is pretty funny too. It really makes you think twice about the actors playing the characters. I had just come to take them for granted as the actual CHARACTER. That's how great the show is -- you forget they're normal people who have no clue what the difference is between neoplasia and hyperplasia. I could google more big medical terms, but you get the idea.
Movie Review: Nothing limp about this series...
Summary: 5 Stars
Ever capricious, ever right, Greg House is an opinionated, intelligent and thoroughly insane diagnostician.
The best thing about House is the way that the entire series shuns political correctness in every way and flies in the face of good taste. Addiction, sexual innuendo, abuse of anyone who dares to come near him and a way of twisting every bad situation to his advantage makes this anti-hero the most enjoyable television character for decades.
In this set House becomes embroiled in a vendetta with a police officer who he insults and leaves in an embarrassing situation. The policeman decides to make an example of House who soon finds his life and indeed that of his associates is made miserable by the policeman who does all he can to have House thrown in jail.
The series finale is a shocker with the departure of a popular member of the cast.
Buy it! Enjoy it!
Movie Review: The series is great, but....
Summary: 5 Stars
House is by far the best television series out there, but I have a quibble with both the writers and Amazon's Plot Synopsis. House is branded a drug addict, showing a woeful lack of understanding of chronic pain and it's treatment these days. Granted, House should not be self-medicating and should be under the care of a certified pain specialist, but I know from personal experience that that anyone in that much pain needs the pain-killers simply to able to function at a normal level. There is no euphoria associated with pain meds when taken to control pain.
So, I would urge Amazon to drop the label drug addict and urge the writers to find another way to deal with House's use of Vicodin, perhaps by showing a more enlightened (and current) view of treating chronic pain. All chronic pain suffers want is to lead as normal a life as possible. That doesn't make us junkies looking for a high.
Movie Review: House MD Season Three DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
Hugh Laurie as the irascible Dr Gregory House has a lot to deal with in this season three dvd from dealing with the ketamine treatment that Cuddy performed after the end of the last season to his vicodin addiction and the cop who tries to ruin him, to a confrontation with a girl who has been raped in One Day One Room to a patient that is more hateful than him and finally the resignation of Foreman and Cameron to the firing of Chase we see a different side of Dr House he becomes more dimensional in the third season.I think this is definately the best drama in tv it is a thinking persons show not just some fluff soap opera like Greys Anatomy. .This is a show for everyone who loves mystery and an intellectual challenge.Mr Laurie plays the role brilliantly along with a fine supporting cast .I recommend you also have a look at the first 2 seasons it won't take long to get hooked on this great show.Movie Review: Favorite show!!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's refreshing to watch a television program that isn't written for the "stoopitt" people out there in the world. So many shows lately have to dumby down with their writing so everyone understands what's happening. It's insulting and gets really boring for those of us out here who actually already get it all along...HOUSE is one of those amazingly written shows that appeals to the smarter folks out here. It has excellent humor and drama and mystery, and is worth spending an hour of your time watching because you're going to get everything you tune in for every episode.
There's a formula to each episodes, much like with LAW AND ORDER, but even though you understand how the process works, the endings are most often still quite the surprising twist that you'd never see coming.
The special features are great, but of-course, I always wish for more. Highly recommended!!
