to say that thunderbird be a horrid and force and in your face and ugly look and nasty to listen to and painful to watch film wouldn not be say enough . there be only two reason i can think of why you would watch this film represent 1 while you have see thunderbird when you be young ( like i do ) and be curious a to what it be like but you will really only be watch to find out how badly they screw thing up . or and 2 while youre see it with someone under ten year old . thunderbird manage to cock up everything it attempt . the list go on and on but there be other more subtle and humiliating thing that be painfully obvious when you think about it . from the off and thunderbird be wrong and wrong and wrong . the whole moral message and goal be set up in an excruciating way represent jeff tracy ( a new low for bill paxton ) tell his young son alan he not yet prove himself to be a thunderbird after alan randomly and stupidly decide to go down into tracy island bowel to fire up thunderbird one . the whole film be then a series of event and miss fire consist of alan try to prove himself whilst his father and other brother be trap in space aboard thunderbird five . the film relies on kid actor to carry the film represent a 16 year old alan tracy ( corbet ) and a 16 year old tin tin ( hudgens ) and a 14 year old fermat ( fulton ) who be brain son . to say that watch the adventure they get up to be painful be an understatement . frequently try to act and utilise the script whilst combat the evil hood ( kingsley ) in ridiculously unfunny and hammy way act a the entertainment for the duration of the film while it only differ when everyone in a different location . also and the whole amind control thing be very tiresome and basically drag the film down a it be overuse and offer a way for our hero to see a weakness in the hood force and incidental . i know that most film for kid these day try to integrate some sort of material for adult but in thunderbird it do in a way that fetishises lady penelope . sophia myles play penelope and i think it no coincidence she a little old than the rest of the kid at 24 year old and it almost too good to be true . her scene be often highly charge and carry an erotic push . we see her in the bath and bubble up to her neck watch tv while in come her butler and sneak a peek a she seductively change channel with her wet and bare and bubble covered foot . frequent shot of her massive and bright pink high heel shoe fill the screen during various scene represent this first happen when she be actually tie up with the second happening during a fist fight with another woman . twin with this and her bright pink costume that reveal just enough yet cover just enough be particularly outstanding a be the way she move and talk with that posh and dominant and english accent while sound like a commanding mistress ( well and she be lady penelope after all and you would better make sure call her that ) the whole thing be laughable but the editing be so quick that the kid would not notice but it sure a hell be there . the actual plot of the hood do all that he do just to rob a few bank be very bizarre and the character that be his bodyguard represent a geeky look woman and hard bodied black man who get agitate a lot . be we suppose to be laugh at this . what about the fight scene . poorly choreographed stunt and what the hell be with the silly noise . it utterly and utterly laughable . the list go on . the way bill paxton play it all so seriously and like he be tell they be do it one way but it be make another and the way ford motor company have their logo slap all over the place . news bulletin represent sponsor by ford and the camera even move to endorse ford several time when car be in shot and the way the cgi look like something out of a computer game video clip it infuriate . the fact we be tell to believe that a 16 year old girl can swim in the freezing thames and against the current and rescue a downed monorail ( monorail over the thames . ) and get back to the hatch and thus while save the day all the time hold her breath . it be absolute bull and the maker know it i do not even know if a 10 year old would swallow it . in short represent avoid and avoid and avoid . thunderbird be infuriate and unfunny and poorly script and even the roll royce be take out and replace by a fly car everything that could go wrong and do go wrong .
