finally i think someone be go to do justice to h. g. well classic and not another version set in the wrong locale or era and but one base firmly on the book . well it definitely follow the book pretty closely and and that be the only plus to this mess . this be 180 min ( yes 3 hour ) long and the book be only around 150 page . if timothy hines have the nerve to come on here and say if you can do any good . i would say yes and i could and i have never use a video camera or be to any sort or drama school in my life . i pay good money to get this crap over to the uk from the usa and do not make the same mistake a me .
