CommentsXp Best movie ever!
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
jseph1234 The script and story of this "So-Called" Anne of Green Gables: The continuing story is horrible, with its sexual innuendos towards the beginning (totally inappropriate for the time period and story) and complete bastardization of L.M. Montgomery series.I gave it One star ONLY because the historical accuracy of World War 1 situation.Megan Follows performance was lifeless and flat; I just don't understand (Perhaps its off-camera troubles or disappointment with this Ridiculous BETRAYAL of L.M. Montgomery's story) but this is not the "Anne Shirley" that I came to love in Megan's WONDERFUL portrayal of Anne of Green Gables and Ann of Avonlea.Don't bother watching this if you want to keep the good feelings from the first Two movies and matchless books by Mrs. Montgomery. Just watch the Two other movies/mini-series and skip this at all cost!
alyjoe I would like to state for the record that Kevin Sullivan wrote this version. It has nothing to do with LM Montgomery's series AT ALL, other than the names of the characters. Rather than give Montgomery's family the $$$$ for the rights to continue the ACTUAL stories, he wrote his own version of events, and now has multitudes of fans left confused and bitter. It would have been better to leave it at Anne of Avonlea than to butcher the good characters that Montgomery created. I cannot state enough how horrible I thought the plot to be, after reading the true events that continued in the actual books. I cannot believe the same actors signed on for this travishamockery of a TV film. Shame on you Kevin Sullivan, Shame!
Pollyanna706 I have never read the books, but I was excited to watch the mini-series. I must say that the first two movies are excellent, but his last one was terrible. First of all, how do you justify making the last installment in 2000, when the previous movie was made in 1987. Megan Follows was bound to grow up, and cannot possibly pull a mid-twenties Anne Shirley after 13 years. The other thing that bothers me is the change in Diana. How does someone change like that in just a few years? She's far too old to be portraying someone of Anne's character and loses some of her spunk that she had in the previous movies. She isn't enthusiastic and certainly does not extend from the previous movie. Gilbert is a decent character in this final movie, but all in all it wasn't the greatest. It is hard to continue a mini-series without doing the sequels immediately. I compare this poor rendition to the 3rd installment of North and South when they change the characters and bring in others that didn't exist in the first two installments. Kevin Sullivan... better luck next time.On a more positive note, the costumes are quite accurate and the clothes were very pretty. I do give credit for the scenery and costumes all around.
vicky-wiseman Such a shame that this one was ever made. So bad in so many ways. Anne in this film bears no resemblance to the Anne in the previous two films and has no connection at all to the Anne of the books - which Anne of Green Gables story is this film supposed to be continuing? There is a continuing story to Anne of Green Gables: L M Montgomery wrote 8 books in the Anne series, why were these stories not adapted for film? I was so pleased when I found that this film had been made and so disappointed when I watched it. The first two DVDs are practically worn out with re-watching, this one I watched once and then sold on ebay. Many apologies to the poor soul who bought it off me.
