wow! The basic idea is pretty good but the execution is terrible. lots of hard cuts and poor editing that breaks up the flow. The acting of the main cast is terrible as are most of the rest. Some nice sets and costumes but awful cg that kills the sense of threat.
Problems in this episode are solved in 3ways either half thought solution, exposition dump or running away. I think this is the norm for this doctor which is getting really old.
Exposition is often nonsensical and kind of amounts to a spell intended to make the audience think the characters are geniuses. they aren't and rather than showing that we are just told they are.
Plenty of action happens but is any of it memorable (apart from goofy action shots)? Doctor who has been a show where people are excited to share ideas and talk with admiration about episodes for years. This isn't one of them. Rather it's a collection of ideas that someone thought was cool, and Hail Marys to fix the current problem.
