Don't bother @Anonymous. I felt there was massive chunk of it missing.

Thank you for all the posts in this thread

I felt I had been missing something good

I clearly remember the original film, and despite it being all so long ago I'd say it's still good

Thought the Tom Cruise film version was weak, but then I'm not a Tom Cruise fan

Liked the concept music album

Read the book

I'd be inclined to do the same @Anonymous . It was totally pathetic and not worth the airtime.

A huge disappointment. I admit that I fell the hype - hense why I started the thread. A waste of license-payers money and a waste of viewing time...
