I also found it better on the second viewing, allowing my expectations to calm
down, and to realize that some of my complaints HAD been addressed by small
bits of dialogue that had sailed by on the first viewing.
It's not the first film, but neither does it deserve some of the critical
bricks thrown at it.

I recognize that there are (several) flaws with the movie, but I still really
enjoyed it in spite of them. It didn't meet my high expectations going in, but
a second viewing helped me appreciate it for what it wants to be/say. The
comparison to the Donner Superman movies is apt.

So who has seen WW1984? We watched it this evening on TV, it’s on a “rent for
48 hours” basis in the UK just now. Anyone got any opinions?
