DVD Reviews of The Tomorrow People - Set 2 (1975)
DVD Review: Variable quality
Summary: 4 Stars
The good was very good. Some of the scripts were superb, some of the acting was brilliant, some of the ideas were ingenious. The special effects were poor, but understandable - their budget was something close to a hundredth of that of Doctor Who at the time, and Doctor Who couldn't afford much either. Some of the actors hammed it up, and Mr. Price was guilty of adding more than a little camp - he wanted to be writing comedy as well, but wasn't allowed to, so mixed the two. The result was... not good.
So what can I say? The good stories have terrible moments, and the poor stories have superb moments. If you want polished, this isn't it. But if you're looking for raw, on-the-edge sci-fi that explores what it is to be human - this is brilliant and is without equal, warts and all.
Yes, but who are these "Tomorrow People" and what are the stories on the DVD? It's hard to answer the first without providing some sort of spoiler. Suffice to say, they are the main characters in the story. The stories themselves are mostly quests, though there are some escape stories and a few that defy any standard label. Enough is spelled out that the viewer does not need to put in much thought, but it is intellectual in its own way. Don't expect top-class High Speculative Fiction. This is somewhere between Science Fiction and Science Fantasy, and is most definitely "mid-range" in terms of intelligence vs. action.
Who would this be good for? Definitely old-time sf fans, anyone who likes highly unusual television and anyone who likes sf but doesn't like High Adventure. I would also say budding script writers and students in media arts would find it valuable, as it contains many experimental concepts.
