Brilliant, it was better than some films I've watched.

Shame about the bloody adverts every 10 minutes though.

To quote my sheffield friends - it was 'reet' good

i nearly cried when they opened that box to get pancho out..but i found the end a bit anti-climatic...what do you think?

I honestly expected Nick to die, it was the series finale and perhaps he wanted to leave the show. I was a bit confused as to why the coffin started to crack and the ants got in.

But it was "edge of your seat" stuff.

'cos he shot the light out & obviously created a weak spot. the wife asked me the same thing.
best way to get round the ads, use sky+ & then u only get small interruptions& watching both episodes likewise was sooper.

I'm pigged off.. i missed it. i didn't know that they were going to show it so soon after last week's 'cancellation'

:(

I have to confess to having more of a thing for Griss more than George Eads' character, but... what a storyline!

I've never watched CSI before, and only watched it last night because Quentin had directed it. I thought it was great, and can't believe it was the lat inthe series!

It was very entertaining, although the story was a bit weak, especially the ending.

Although talented, Tarentino has to be one of the most over-rated directors in film history.

I taped it. If you've got a VCR PT I'll bring the video on Sunday & u can have a Griss fest :P

As for Tarantino I have no idea how he rates as a director in the scheme of things but it's one v dark mind that can torment itself with planning a storyline like that one. The last scene, particularly the very last still/shot (whatever you call it), mangled my head & made my stomach turn way more than trying to empathise with the CSI characters up to that point :gag:

Very good double episode and must have been fun for the actors. The doc and his sidekick having a chance to drop their serious, constipated personas - although seem to remember the doc admitted, in an earlier episode, to visiting a lap dancing club regularly.

Stokes must have enjoyed the chance to show his acting range a bit more than usual - the coffin bit of course, the scenes at the end and especially the changing room scene where him and Brookes had their chance to do a Travolta and Jackson tribute.

What was the point of the board game - light relief surely and a nod to QT's love of them.

Why didn't Catherine have a bit more to do - it was all serious from her, where were the one liners and the looks?

John Saxon was the baddy - reminded me of the role he played in Battle beyond the Stars except that in CSI he lacked the spare parts.

Yes, now I remember him, gawd, that was a bad film, but very entertaining.

Did the actor who plays Grissam die not long back or did I dream that?

I once dreamt that Zack from Saved by The Bell had died and believed myself for years.
