Thunderbirds

TRUE CINEMA!!! My man over cooked with this, and the score by Hans Zimmer is a certified banger, and the end credits song Thunderbirds Are Go by Busted is sensational.

Absolutely love this film, even 20 years after it's release, I still watch this and love it to this day it always makes me laugh and takes me back to being a child.. it definitely gets too much hate..

Brilliant film. It receives far too much hate for what it is, a classic 00s kids film.

It may not be a good film itself unlike the cartoon puppet series. Thunderbirds is a more children's live action film.

I don't know why no-one likes this film. Its really fun, and a great adaptation of the original show. Great Score, nice acting (Mostly Parker) and brilliant thunderbird designs.

I though that this film would be awful after looking at the trailer and review rating. So I made a bet that if I ended up loving the film that I would create an account on rotten tomatoes and leave a good review. And, here we are. I loved it, watch this film.

If you are a fan of the original 1960s Thunderbird's TV show then this movie is not for you. Somehow they managed to make a film about the International Rescue family without showing hardly any rescuing. They even needed rescuing themselves. The film starts off well, for all of 3 minutes. We get a very brief intro sequence showing a standard rescue. Then after heading back to Tracey Island they receive a distress call from Thunderbird 5 prompting all active International Rescue members to head off to help in Thunderbird 3. They are then stranded up in space, and I am not kidding on this one, spend 2/3 of the film trapped in space doing practically nothing. Instead of various rescue missions the filmmakers thought we would prefer to spend the time watching 3 children walking around the island avoiding various dangers. The film also commits its biggest sin by not including even one remake of the classic sequence where the pilots are taken to their Thunderbirds via various elaborate chair and escalator rides. The Actress and character of Lady Penelope are the films only real strong point as well as the actor and character of Parker. The film at least got them both right. But they alone could not carry this film. For some reason the people behind this film decided that they would make a Thunderbirds film while mostly leaving out everything that made the original Thunderbirds series that classic that it was.

A movie that is true to the original "Thunderbirds" television program, and made for the 7-12 demographic. Most complaints are that this movie is not "Spy Kids", or that it is boring or has bad writing. This movie is not "Spy Kids", that is true. (And the "Spy Kids" movies are good.) For people who watched "Thunderbirds" in the 1960s (and who now have grayer hair), yes, this movie will probably not have what you want. But for pre-teens, especially those with some familiarity of "Thunderbirds", it can be a fun trip.

It's a very nice, but i'd say a bit dated, flick

God this awful movie doesn't even deserve to call itself Thunderbirds, what was once a beloved children's TV show turned into a complete mess
