rock out with your stock out

I loved the dalek animations, they looked menacing and really nailed their blending in with the traditional animation.

I really loved that they resisted the temptation to do some creative editing to clean up some clunky scenes or dialogue. That and leaving in a flubbed line or a crash-on-set noise went a long way to make it feel like a classic serial. There were a few moments especially in the beginning where the audio track isn't doing much, and so neither is the animation which leads to a few dead beats, so it's not exactly perfect.

The animation was hit and miss. They mentioned in the extra feature afterwards that they couldn't land on a good design for Ben until it was too late. This plus the lack of facial animation in general took away an element which I feel is pretty vital for an actor like 2. On the whole though, it manages to convey the tension in the story pretty well.

I was surprised at how well it all came together, but I still left with kind of a bitter feeling towards the BBC. Again in the post film feature, they mentioned it had to be pushed out the door in six months. It. The result film is plenty good, but man if there is a story that deserves a bit more money and attention, it's this one.
