Great Movie Mistakes Review (3.5/5)

BBC Three aired Great Movie Mistakes on the 4th of April, with Robert Webb heading a project whereby hundreds of movie stars made supposedly unmissable errors while filming much-loved hits such as Star Wars; The Dark Knight; Lord of the Rings and even 2009's Sex in the City. At first, Webb picks some of the most comedic highlights, which will definitely get the whole family into a state of hysterics, but later in the programme the joker then continuously picks out mere continuity errors such as a shirt changing constantly in one scene without any sign of the character changing his clothes. These small but noticeable changes are at first humorously illustrated by Webb, but when eventually they seem to be all he can find in the blockbusters the programme as a whole begins to grate, and viewing ratings will likely prove that the second half of the 3-hour show started to become tired and irksome. Even Rob's jokes can't save Great Movie Mistakes from losing its touch after about an hour and a half, but when it does have that touch, it's an awesome watch.
