A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

The right show with the right hosts and the right ideas at the right time. So for everyone who ever said, gee I wonder if it's true that you could (fill in the blank), Hyneman and Savage came along to help out. The general format was excellent, on many levels - the bar room-type discussion and research, the preliminary explorations and commentary by the stars along the way, the excellent if under-appreciated narration by Lee, all the way to the full scale resolution. Occasionally the pacing was off, so that you got to the finale without a lot of time to fully appreciate the event but whatever. Hyneman and Savage are effective if somewhat different personalities with some fun interplay, in retrospect the inclusion of B Team members Imahara, Belleci and a very attractive Byron probably extended the life of the series for several years and gave a needed break from the two leads. All the work on this was so professionally done, the biggest issue was coming up with enough myths to explore. Sometimes the cupboard seemed a little bare (a postage stamp on a helicopter wing causing an accident, c'mon). But one of the best science shows ever and tops for background television watching.

Just watched the episode where the myth of urinating on a third rail would electrocute a guy. I think it was in 2008 where a Polish guy in England was found dead by a rail track. Unfortunately he unknowingly took a pee on a live track and it killed him. I could not believe all the trouble and hassle the guys went to to try and bust the myth. I'm sitting watching the episode and it reminded me when I read it in a newspaper. It happened in August around 5pm. The guy crept into a recess to relieve himself. It was captured on CCTV. Staff found his body when he didn't reappear. He was a teacher from Poland and came on a visit to England to improve his English. Poor guy, must have awful for his family when they found out.

What a great show. One of the very few which have managed to make science and education fun.Jamie and Adam are hilarious, and the myths (and the lengths they'll go to), are very entertaining. Watching someone blow up a cement truck with 400 pounds of C4, and trying to make diamonds with 5000 pounds of C4, how can you go wrong?! But, of course, the whole show isn't about blowing stuff up (although there wouldn't be anything wrong with that), it's about busting or confirming myths, and the results are usually very surprising.Overall, I give this show a 10 out of 10. It couldn't get much better.

Long story short, this show is totally amazing! They have Jamie and Adam, two completely insane special effects experts, debunking the most random of urban legends. The two hosts are perfect for the kind of show this is; they make a science show funny and entertaining.Some of the great things about 'MythBusters' are that it's educational while being fun, it's well-made, and it's hilarious. The things Jamie and Adam do are so out there that it's entertaining by itself to watch what they're going to do next. They've already taught old dogs new tricks, blown up a tree, shot frozen and thawed chickens at airplane windshields, tried to fool a Breathalyzer test, and escaped from Alcatraz. What next? Bottom line, this is a show worth watching.'I reject your reality and substitute my own!'
