Review of Pilot

Gemini Man: Pilot (1976)
Season 1, Episode 0
Underrated.
8 June 2001
In reality the 'second season' (or retooling) of the David McCallum "Invisible Man" series, "Gemini Man" has a lot to recommend it. While falling to the faults of the invisible man genre like having too many point-of-view shots and sometimes unconvincing fighting scenes, the show itself is played straight is quite action packed. Not so deep, but good fun nevertheless.

Sadly, most people's first exposure to this show will be MST3K's version of "Running with Death," which is a badly edited movie version of two episodes. But don't really make your mind up until you see the episodic version itself: the 'Minotaur' episode alone is worth the hour you will spend watching.

So keep an eye out for the Sci-Fi Schedulebot to see when this comes on again. Enjoy!
