Movie Reviews of On the Beach
Movie Review: Stick with the original
Summary: 2 Stars
While interesting, this version is over the top in areas that simply don't contribute to the story. Captain Towers in unbelievable as a nuclear navy sub commander. Julian Osborne is unbelievable as a government scientist. Moira Davidson is unbelievable as anything other than a complete bitch. The only characters that improved with this telling are Peter and Mary.
As noted in previous reviews, the tech flaws include a blinking corpse. In addition, when Bill Gates or Dell comes up with a solar battery powered laptop--someone let me know, OK?
Kramers original is still the best. You could hardly go wrong with a cast and script like that.
If you're a die hard "End Of The World" film geek like me, then this is a must own. Just don't spend more than US10 on it.
