Movie Reviews of Roswell - The Complete First Season
Movie Review: Most Engaging TV I've Ever Watched
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought Roswell after seeing a couple scenes of Liz and Max on a YouTube Montage of Romantic TV Shows. I then went straight to Amazon and read all the reviews I could find on the series. Not ONE negative one to be seen! So I ordered Season One right then and there.
One Month Later I now have all 3 Season's in my possession and I have watched NOTHING but Roswell since the day the First Season arrived!!
Right from the Pilot I was completely hooked. The characters are fantastic and it's wonderful how they evolve through the 3 Seasons. The relationships between the characters are SO genuine and believable and I was drawn into the emotional turmoil immediately. I know the show is Science Fiction, but its not all consumming doesn't descend into the pit of unintellegible mumbo jumbo or get to lost in it.
I LOVE Max and Liz's intense love for each other. No matter what they do they just can't run away from it. Perfectly matched couple.
Michael and Maria have a totally different relationship, but nontheless intense.
As for Isobel, I wasn't sure I even liked her at first, but her character really grows on you and you begin to understand why she is as she is.
As for Jim & Kyle Valenti, this in one father and son duo that by the end of the show I was in love with. Excellent characters and I just wanted to hug poor Kyle sometimes.
This series has it all; Drama, Romance, Mystery, Suspense, and a very generous dose of Comedy!
My conclusion? BUY THIS SERIES!! I have started lending it out to all my friends and they have all been just as estatic as me over it. Absolataly worth EVERY penny!
Movie Review: This is season is why I'm still hooked!
Summary: 5 Stars
Roswell was so much more than a show on TV. It was a fantasy, an adventure and to some a way of life. Alienism (is that a word?) was a metaphor for all the isolation we all feel. This season was truly a love story and to me it began when Liz and Max looked into each other's eyes at the end of the 'Pilot' I knew this was it. Try and watch any episode in the first season and trust me you will be enamored by the love story of Max and Liz, the lustful rantings of Michael and Maria, and the befuddled affection of Alex and Isabel. From the `Pilot' to `Destiny' you will understand a world that millions fell in love with, a world that seemed more than us and more than Roswell itself; the fantasy, intrigue, and exploration of an otherwise improbable plot that coincide to create the perfect intergalactic romance.Movie Review: Best money I've ever spent!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I had caught Roswell a few times on the Sci-fi Network and fell in love with it. After checking around I found it was avaliable on DVD. I immediatley ordered all the seasons. I thought I was going to go crazy waiting to get it. Once I did, it was all I watched for the next week and a half. It was completely addictive. I loved it. I then loaned it to my mom and my brother who loved it equally. This show may star teenagers but if you love sci-fi, it doesn't matter. I'm 31 and my mom is 60, we are far from teenagers. What else can I say, if you love sci-fi, buy this, you will not be disappointed, that is until you have none left to watch, that does suck.Movie Review: X-Files meets local high school
Summary: 5 Stars
Roswell is delightful and refreshing! It is absent the violence and sex of so many series and delves into the moral dilemas of being human (or alien) as the case may be, as well as reminding those of us who are older of some of the difficulties in being a teenager. Of course, these teens are more mature than most. It takes a couple episodes to get into it, but once you're in, you're hooked! I highly recommend it.Movie Review: Teen Science Fiction at it's best
Summary: 4 Stars
If you are older than 25 this series is probably not for you. But for those under 25, or those who just like watching teen angst--this show is for you.
