My Dr. Who Easter Special impressions

Just finished watching Dr. Who Easter Special with my son. The overall impression was positive, my 11-year old seemed to like it. My impressions, in no particular order (hopefully spoiler-free, but beware if you haven’t seen it yet):

• The cops-vs-robbers perspective was backwards.
• It seems to be the rule that for each good CG special effect/monster in Dr. Who we get a totally cheesy one.
• If something can withstand a wormhole, how can it be taken down using an ordinary weapon?
• If you are using a homing missile against something, why try to shoot it down with a pistol at the same time?
• A high rank and a gun in your hand can mess with your head.
• Crazy scientists are cool. “Doctor! I’m ready” “For what?” “I don’t know, you tell me!”
