Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

neiljones1981 There, I've said it, along with the vast majority of the contestants who partake in this show.On the basis of the first daytime series, since it's become fit to be shown to the masses on Freeview via Sky3, the show takes on the form of being in a modern classroom. A grown-up contestant answers questions from one of ten categories and may or may not need the help of their 10 year old classmate. More often than not, they do. The more questions you get right, the more dosh you win. There are three cheats available - peek, copy and save. A lot of show formats now take their influence from Millionaire, and Smarter is effectively the same programme in different colours. The daytime version is presented by Dick & Dom (of 'In Da Bungalow' fame).Be it by sheer luck or co-incidence, the show has managed to find adults with thousands of GCSE's, dozens of A-Levels and a degree or three in brain surgery and rocket science. The scary thing is, with all this knowledge, they can't answer incredibly simple questions about nursery rhymes without having a ten year old to guide them.Admittedly, much of this brain drain is probably caused by simple nerves, the TV equipment and the audience, akin to a deer getting caught in a car's headlights. I'm sure we'd all be in the same sort of situation no matter how many qualifications you have.The ten year olds may be cute, adorable and have incredibly inventive ways of arriving on the set prior to the game, but they're not little monsters either. Having been selected specifically for the show in the first series, most of them are far too happy, chirpy, even "professional", to be real. You do wonder sometimes whether you're watching child actors because of the way they behave, especially when the contestants start shaking hands, hugging or, on one occasion, picking up and carrying the youngster around the studio, with said kid laughing his head off!I don't claim to know everything about everything. But there are questions in here aimed supposedly at seven year olds that I couldn't answer, and at the time of writing this, I'm soon to be 29. This means one of two things: Either I went to a rubbish primary school, or I don't actually know anything. There's an argument for whether the children are pre-empted about the questions or not, but you could also argue some of the material covered is debatable as to whether it's the sort of thing that actually is taught in primary school today when you factor in the other argument that students are being taught to pass exams for league-table purposes as opposed to anything else.Anyway, I'm going off on a tangent here. Are You Smarter? Good show, works well, whether Dick & Dom were the right hosts for the daytime show is open to debate, but there we go. Worth watching.

footiefan25 I am close to one of the children in the next series and i want to clear up that the child i know is not at a private school, he is quite intelligent, but not a 'genius' child, there are others more intelligent. He/she is also not at a stage school, just at an ordinary state school. People may say that the show is biased towards the kids, but the only reason that is, is because they have learnt it more recently than the adults so it would be fresher in their minds. As you said that the more intelligent contestants get their questions wrong from just not remembering it from when they were 10. The fact that some children get their spellings wrong could be a number of reasons, the pressure of being on the podium, they may be dyslexic or maybe they're just not sure of how to spell it. some kids get their answers wrong when they are needed, and i know for a fact that all the children find it humiliating more than anything, and some may even get upset because they will be on TV in front of many many people, and they want to be the hero of the show. When people automatically think these kids are chosen because they are overly clever, or have been told the answers i find it is unfair as the children work very hard on, and off the stage, especially during the weeks they are filming. They are not told what the questions will be on, so have to revise everything they have been taught. Some of the contestants, I have heard, go out and buy revision books for the age groups so they can still have as good a chance of getting the answers right as the children if they do enough work. It is not set up, and they choose the contestants on how entertaining they are rather than how clever or not they are. hope this clears things up.
