The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Let's Do the Time Warp Again Audience Reviews

Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Carlos Perez Miquilarena This is easily one of the worst movies I've seen. Almost everything about it is bad. Why cast a transexual woman as Dr. Frank N Furter? The whole idea of that character is that it's A MAN DRESSED AS A WOMAN. While Laverne is actually a man, he has gone through a lot of surgery to look feminine, the role was terribly miscast, when you see ''her'' you certainly don't think it's a man dressed in woman's clothing. The acting was incredibly bad, i felt like I was watching one of my school plays, over the top, it felt like they were rehearsing. And isn't Rocky supposed to be a few hours old? he sings and dances like someone who's been doing it for years. Dr Scott was horrible. The only actual good part was the intro, I thought it was pretty cool, and I already knew Ivy and I think she was great. The singing wasn't bad, it was pretty good, but man, this sucked big time.
britwright-33765 My husband and I have a running joke... and that is that "Jack the Reaper" is better than this. For those who have not seen "Jack the Reaper"... well, don't. It's bad. Reeeeeal bad. For those who have, you'll understand. Basically what I am saying is this movie is that bad that I would watch old mate Jack again over sitting through any more than the 10 minutes of this shite.Tim Curry owns Frank and seeing him all disheveled tucked away in that chair in this film made me weep! The acting is overdone, the gritty dirty rawness of the original film is completely lost and the magic was missing. Also, why is there a portrait of Beyonce hanging on the back wall of the main hall?I have been a Rocky fan since I was a young girl and loved the film along with the many live productions I have been lucky to see but this was just awful. It has left a bitter taste in my mouth!
rachwagon This was just a popped out version of an iconic film and musical. It's supposed to be rock music and the lip-syncing is just too obvious and terrible. The cast seemed to have no energy and really was just a huge let down all round. If you have seen the original Rocky Horror Picture Show, don't waste your time with this because it will just make you mad. 10/10 would NOT recommend!!
Paul Magne Haakonsen By all that is unholy, why? Why remake the 1975 classic? It just made no sense in any way. But yet I took the time to sit down and watch the 2016 remake titled "The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Let's Do the Time Warp Again" when I got the chance. Curiosity is a strange thing, isn't it? I will be the first to admit that I was already wearing a negative collar before the movie had even started, because director Kenny Ortega was messing with a masterpiece in the musical genre.The songs will take some time getting used to, because I have grown accustomed to the original versions and hold them up against the original. And from the very first song, it was sort of running coldly down the back of my neck, because it just sounded wrong and it felt like I was committing a sin in watching this. The songs had undergone a bit of change. For the better? Well, that depends on who you ask. But me, as a long-time fan of the original, then it didn't sit well with me that the songs were retouched and modified in this way. But fair is fair, the songs themselves are not bad, they are just not the originals. For for a new audience the songs would be great.It should be said that they had an impressive production value to this remake. But again, so overly unnecessary to remake what was already perfect and timeless. So why do the Timewarp again?It was nice to see Tim Curry make an appearance in this 2016 remake, despite not reprising the role of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. So at least the remake does pay some respect and homage to the original and also gives a nod in the direction of us long-time fans of the original musical.As for the cast, well they had some good enough talents on the cast list, though I can't really claim to be overly familiar with the people there. But they were doing good jobs with their given roles and characters.I am feeling somewhat ambivalent about the characters, because there are distinct similarities, but also deviations from the original ones. Reeve Carney was doing an almost a frame-by-frame copy of Richard O'Brien in the role of Riff Raff. Sure, I can acknowledge and understand the choice of Laverne Cox as Frank-N-Furter given the transsexual thing, but she was no Tim Curry as the original Frank-N-Furter, not even reaching him to the knees. Actually, most of the character were a hard pill to swallow if you are a fan of the original 1975 version, but Reeve Carney and Laverne Cox were the two that proved the most bitter.It was a bit odd and distracting to have the movie alternate between the events in the story and showcasing the audience participation in the theater. It just didn't had a natural flow to it.Not being able to properly sing along was a major setback for the movie, especially when watched by us long-time fans of the original. Sure, we knew the exact words, but the timing and delivery was just freakishly distorted and warped.Visually then "The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Let's Do the Time Warp Again" was interesting and quite much in the essence and spirit of the 1975 version, though it was spruced up to a more contemporary time, for better or worse.This musical is suitable for viewers whom like musicals and whom may for some unknown reason have eluded getting acquainted with the original 1975 masterpiece. And I can in all honesty say that I have now watched this 2016 remake once, but it will never be watched again, because it was frankly just so upsetting that they remade the original piece.I am a big fan of the original 1975 version, as you clearly can see from my words here, but I can't claim to ever become a fan of the 2016 remake.
