I tried to watch the recent episodes, I really did. I thought the cars were of more interest than the presenters. Individually, that is true but the recent bunch are just awful. The programme is interesting but listening to the presenters is soporific. Filming and subject matter is brilliant but listening to the three of them talking together curdles milk. BBC - you have done the tax payer a terrible turn.
I have read the book - many times. It's excellent. I had hoped that the movie would keep some semblance of the story. It barely did. A guy called Kelly whose wife was killed. Bringing the story into the 21 Century makes sense but not this story - it's unbelievable, even by the low limits established by recent action movies. A sad waste - should have stuck to the earlier but much better Tom Clancy plot line.
It's dry. No chemistry. Watch original Top Gear and those guys are enjoying themselves. TG USA is...similar challenges, same cars but boring! Sorry guys but there is just no chemistry - you have taken a worldwide favourite and turned it into a dull car show. The cars are still good tho.
