Bionic Showdown: The Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman

This being the second of three specials over a period of 7 years, probably ranks as my second favorite, mainly because of Sandra Bullock!!!! She really had a great role and her sexy outfit didn't hurt either! It was good to see Lee Majors and Lindsey Wagner, the originals return as well to show they too still are the best.

Overall rating 3 out of 5

DID YOU SEE THE PART WHERE SANDY RUNS AROUND THE TRACK AND FIELD??? WHOA! SHE WAS SO SO SO SO SOOOOO SEXY IN THAT LEOTARD! IF ONLY THAT FILM WAS FOR SALE ON VIDEO OR SOMETHING, I WOULD'VE GRABBED A COPY OF IT SO FAST! BUT NOOOOO, IT WAS MADE - FOR - TV! I'M ****ED.....

I found this older movie streaming on Peacock. I watched it for two reasons. The first was a very young Sandra Bullock in her very early career. The second was because years earlier I had enjoyed the TV series this is based on.

Lindsay Wagner is Jaime Sommers, the Bionic Woman, while Lee Majors is Steve Austin, the Six Million Dollar Man. The two of course are very close and by the end of this movie it seems they will get even much closer.

It is a cold war story of spying and espionage. The latest person to get the medical treatment to turn her into a super person is 25-yr-old Sandra Bullock as Kate Mason. She ends up being entered in a track and field competition with athletes from the USSR, running the 400 meters.

This is not a great movie but entertaining as a slice of how TV movies were made back then. When the various characters went into super speed mode they simulated that by slowing them down, basically into slow motion, but it works!

Fun viewing.

I really did like this film. After The Return Of The Six Million Dollar Man And The Bionic Woman which i have only seen the trailer of because the video is not avaliable. I reallly did like this film because it had a good story and basically it was like an extended episode. So good story and good action. Brillant.

I must admit, when my hubby told me this was going to be on last night, I laughed out loud. Sandra is/was/will be very cute & perky, & she does a good job no matter how bad the script/storyline is. The 2 hours I spent in front of the TV was well worth the laughs I got from the sound & visual effects. I miss the old Bionic sounds from the TV show!!!

If you have the opportunity to watch this, I'd say do it, but don't expect too much. Instead, just expect a cute story with a bit of a love line & a bit of a spy line.
