Review of Rise of the Cybermen by KieranCooper

31 March 2025

2025 REWATCH (Posted on both parts)

    • This is the story, especially since listening to 'Spare Parts, that I wouldn't mind skipping. not sure it does it for me. I love the Cybermen, but not this tale for them
    • Mixed feelings about Mickey. Not that he was bad in this story- he was great, but it's taken so long for him to get this material. Serves Rose and 10 right for taking him for granted
    • The solution to the story seemed a tad underwhelming; just a quick text, sure? But the escape of the Cyber-Factory at least made for a thrilling ending
    • Maybe if this story had a hint of more body horror, something I know the show can't exactly dive into greatly, but something a little more like Ashad, it would have been cool. It's a Cyberman genesis story, like Go Wild
    • It was nice to see an alternate, Jackie, Pete, and Mickey, give the actors a chance to do something a little different
