Roxanne Roxanne (2017)
left wanting
I remember when my boy D came home from Detroit with a Roxanne tape. It was all we played for weeks. This movie was well acted but lacked the feeling of the time and music of the period. I expected more from it.
Top Gear USA (2008)
Lacking a bit of the Brit wit.
I am from the US and have watched a couple of seasons Top Gear UK. I was devastated to hear the show was being remade in my homeland.
You just knew before the show came out, that it could not match up to its predecessor from across the pond.
That said, I found myself interested after the first episode w/ the Lambo comparisons. By the Evo in the snow in episode two (which I'm watching now) I can see that this is a watchable show. And I will be watching more episodes strictly for the gear head element.
Few shows on television will match the wit and banter of Jeremy, Quentin and Vick. So to ask it add up probably isn't fair.
I will continue to watch the US version, while digging through the crates for old UK ones.
Worth a look IMHO.
