Apr. 12th, 2010 04:02 pmThe new Dr. Who episode was very disappointing, featuring poor/cheap characterization, lazy writing, blatant ripoffs of not only itself but also its own spinoffs, and massive plot holes big enough to drive a space whale through.
The sole redeeming feature was Matt Smith's performance, which managed to be quirky and yet subtle enough to satisfy. His face may look like a sculptor was running behind schedule and kiln-fired whatever slapdash crockery his apprentice managed to throw together between lunch and tea, but Smith seems to be a decent actor with a solid handle on what his audience wants to see.
