Blu-ray Review: Red Dwarf: Back to Earth
Summary: 4 Stars

For Red Dwarf fans, like any other addict, any Dwarf is better than no Dwarf. So I was excited to get a copy of the newly released BACK TO EARTH Directors cut. The first thing I noticed was lack of a laugh track. It's a bit neanderthal of me I guess but I MISS the laugh track! Somehow it seems lonely and sad when no-one laughs at the jokes. Sort of like watching a stand-up comic bomb in a club. I bet others secretly feel the same but won't admit it for being thought crude and declasse.

Second it was somehow not as madcap and zany as the series. A polished Hi-Def Red Dwarf without cheesy plastic sets just doesn't seem right to me. I think they even had better teeth!

But all said it was truly great to see the lads together again. Like a Beatles reunion, how could it not be an epic and memorable event? The plot was twisty enough to rate multiple viewings so worth the purchase. I did watch all the extra features which I thought were worth as much as the film to a hard-core Dwarfer. Let's face it, if you've never heard of Red Dwarf I don't know what you'd think, but if you are a serious Dwarfite then you have to own it. Not optional.

Description of Red Dwarf: Back to Earth [Blu-ray]

Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 10/06/2009 Run time: 90 minutes Rating: Nr
It was a long time coming, but finally the crew of the Red Dwarf were reunited for what could be the last time with Back to Earth. And it proved to be a bit of a mixed blessing, with all three parts throwing up moments of absolute genius, alongside parts where you couldn?t help believing that its best days are far behind it. The idea behind the show is quite ingenious. Back to Earth takes place after the supposed season 10 of Red Dwarf, and the crew find themselves thrown through a portal, at which time they realize that they?re all just characters from a TV show. Furthermore, they?re characters from a TV show who are going to all buy it in the final episode. The only solution? To track down both the actors that play them (including a trip to the set!), and the creators of Red Dwarf itself. This opens the door for plenty of postmodern gags and situations, but arguably it?s only when things get back into more familiar territory that they start to gel a little more. And when they work, you can?t help but enjoy the fact that the crew are back together. Will this be the last voyage for Red Dwarf? Quite possibly, and there?s little doubt that it?s far from the show?s peak. But it?s still a fun and entertaining send-off. --Jon Foster
