    My hate for this film knows no bounds. It is a complete insult to Gerry Anderson's amazing creation and instead paints it as a cheap, throwaway idea that no one can invest in.

    The only saving grace here is Ben Kingsley who really is the only one here actually doing genuinely great work with what he's given.

    Just terrible all round and countless insults and poor imitations of the original series and film.

    Mildly entertaining children's fair, made watchable by the scenery chewing performances of some of the adults involved. Kingsley, as the villainous Hood, is especially fun, and Myles and Cook make an interesting duo. The three leads are mediocre at best, but the heavy handed script doesn't give them much to do. There is some fun to be had here, but it's all a little bit too treacly to recommend.

    Okay, you've got a time machine to 2003 and a visit to Jonathan Frakes. You tell him two things not to do with his Thunderbirds remake:

    1) DON'T shut out Gerry Anderson.

    2) DON'T make a film just for dumb kids.

    You return to 2012. You learn he still did both of those things. You sit and cry.

    The End.

    Damned with faint praise: My 6 year old thought it was good...

    I'm surprised how much I didn't hate this.. I mean it wasn't nearly what it COULD have been but they did a good job of finding characters who looked like their puppet counterparts and I guess not being a huge fan of the original made it so I wouldn't spit nails in venomous hatred at how the bastardized it. The lead character has weird lips though.. and that weirded me out to the point of distraction.. Take that for what you will.

    Possibly the worst film of all time, because it defiles the original Gerry Anderson series so severely. Utterly disappointing.
