Reviews

How anyone in their right mind could rate this show anything more than a 1 is unimaginable.

The illogical plot mixed in with a simply stupid script is too hard a pill to swallow. I love good Aussie humour as much as anyone, how to have a cast which included Bryan Brown, Sean Penn & Susan Sarandon yet produce 'absolute trash' goes without comprehension. This production will not go down in the annals of a quality Aussie made comedy. Hopefully it will never go from streaming services to Australian mainstream TV, if so Australian audiences will subjected to total CRINGE & embarrassment.

In summing up, please be WARNED with the above commentary.

Patrick Bramnall & Harriet Dyer are set to become megastars. Based on the unique dry off beat humour they demonstrate in Colin from Accounts. I can only see ski as the limit for this amazingly talented real life couple. Having previously seen Harriet Dyer deliver dry humour in Australian TV commercials, we now see her do the same in this original wonderfull witty black comedy series. The great news for fans of the series is that a 2nd series has been commissioned. After the multiple awards which Series 1 produced, the commissioning of a follow-up series was never in doubt.

No doubt fans will be anticipating when Series 2 will be released.

I for 1 of those fans will be keenly anticipating the broadcasting of that release date.

Although care givers will relate to this movie more than others, this movie is a MUST WATCH to remind all of us the love and responsibility we all have to our family.

BRILLIANT doco movie The majority of us will grow old & the fact is whilst some us will be fortunate to have good health in our twilight years, a lot of us won't.

Will our family choose to interrupt their busy lives and care for us? Or will our family take the easy route institutionalising those who have become inconveniently old?

We are on a similar journey with my wife's mother living with us. It is greatly appreciated seeing further down the track, as well as the honesty and raft of emotions that every family care giver experiences.

We admire the commitment, patience & tolerance demonstrated in the movie that is becoming rarer today in our immediate gratification, disposable society.

I urge everyone whether they are a caregiver or not to view this compelling story.

I commend the filmmaker & his young family for their braveness embarking on this journey of love and especially appreciate their giving insight to what is ahead in our journey.

We would like to personally Thank the film maker.

For long time fans of this movie I recommend catching. Life after Navigator on You Tube.

A great look back at the making of this marvellous movie. The doco shines the spotlight on the star of the movie Joey Cramer.

I find it difficult to find a more believable performance from a child actor in a motion picture of this type.

Regardless if you watch this movie in 2023 or way back in 1986, it's trully an incredible production.

I think this movie set the benchmark for all movies of its type which were to follow.

Once again I recommend taking in a viewing of The Flight of The Navigator just for the performance of Joey Cramer.

After initially thinking that this series (8 episodes) was going to be 'contrived trash', after watching the entire series I now have to say that for its genre, 'it's best series' I have seen. The characters are 'so endearing'. Filmed throughout the most challenging Covid period, it delivers in the most surprising manner. As such I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the series as a MUST WATCH.

Although the humour is uniquely Clarkson, the characters (not actors) are truly loveable.

To say that watching each episode is 'addictive' is an understatement. Clarkson's narration is as always entertaining, however for some reason it is especially great throughout this series.

This brilliantly written Australian Drama is as realistic as it gets. It's difficult to fault a drama where such highly acclaimed actors such as Sam Neil & Marta Düsseldorf deliver their roles to the highest calibre. Setting aside the main storyline, the focus on the lives of several of the jurors is compelling viewing. Highly recommended.

Not sure if the writers really knew what type of movie they wanted it to be. A movie that contained a good cast promised so much early.

Unfortunately it delivered a confusing, silly production. It seemed like the producers never had a clue how they wanted the final product to be.

Definitely not a worthwhile viewing recommendation for mine.

After giving this show a try for 3 episodes in order to be fair & see if I could find any humour, I am sorry I couldn't find any. I wish everyone the best of luck in also finding any. I find it extremely hard to understand how a well known British comedian was associated with a show which offers any real genuine humour. It is especially disappointing given the number of places which the father & son team visit.

What amazes me is that the show survived for 5 Series.
