    Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
    Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
    Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
    Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
    Gabriel Chandra As Gone With The Wind fans... I always curious about what happened with Rhett and Scarlett after they separated. But this series completely awful and not expected. This series is not only ruined GWTW' story, and also ruined each character too much.In the end of GWTW, we can see how desperate, lost, and regret of Rhett to Scarlett, so he decide to leave Scarlett with his memorable line... "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn". But in this series, Rhett's character look so cheerful, playful, getting sleep with the other woman easily like nothing happened before. Honestly, Dalton quite suit as Rhett. He has good look and charm, but Clark Gable just perfect as Rhett Buttler. Joanne Whalle totally miscast as Scarlett. She doesn't has beauty, spirit, or passion as Scarlett. I know it's so impossible to find someone who can reach Vivien Leigh' level as Scarlett.If this series is not referred as GWTW sequel perhaps I can be more tolerant.
    sophia2206 I read the novel by Alexandra Ripley and found it cowardly and ham handed. Ripley missed a golden opportunity to show us the South after the War with all its horrors and triumphs. Even had Ripley glossed over the beginnings of Jim Crow with a straight romance, Scarlett would never, never, never, give up Tara. To imagine her doing so is to belittle her love of the land inherited from her father and the bond between father and daughter. Worse, it turns our fierce independent heroine into a lovesick nitwit who would throw away her birthright for a mess of Irish pottage. By making up out of whole cloth some faux Irish near royalty, the movie guts the strength of the O'Hara immigrant experience and betrays both the original novel and the movie.The movie from such a weak brew could only be weak, cowardly and ham handed. Although Whalley is certainly a delicate looking creature as Leigh was and Dalton is a decent stand-in for Gable, they have nothing to work with but a tortured and convoluted avoidance of the South, its heritage, its tragedies and its strengths.
    VivienLeighlover As everyone knows, nobody can play Scarlett O'Hara like Vivien Leigh, and nobody can play Rhett Butler like Clark Gable. All others pale in comparison, and Timothy Dalton and Joanne Whalley are no exceptions. One thing that I really couldn't get past was that Joanne has BROWN eyes. The green eyes were the most enhancing feature of Scarlett's good looks, and in this sequel she has been stripped of those.The movie, as well as the book, had several lulls in it. The new characters weren't all that memorable, and I found myself forgetting who was who. I felt as though her going to Ireland did absolutely nothing whatsoever. It could be that I'm only 11, but I saw no change in her attitude until the last say, 10 minutes when Rhett told her she had grown up. If Rhett hadn't told her that, I would have never guessed that there was any change in her attitude. She really loved Cat, her baby. She likes this child best because she had it with Rhett, her only loved husband. Still, if you've read Gone With The Wind, you would see that children make no difference in Scarlett's world. Quite frankly, it seemed to me like there was way too much going on without Rhett. All anybody cares about is whether or not Rhett and Scarlett get back together, and Scarlett took way too long to get to that. It is virtually nothing compared to Gone With The Wind, but then again what isn't? If you have read the novel, you will like that better than the movie.I would watch it, just because it is the sequel to Gone With The Wind, regardless of whether or not it's worthwhile. It may not satisfy you entirely, but it will get you some of the way there.
    grailmaiden95816 Alexandra Ripley wrote a horrible sequel to Margaret Mitchell's masterpiece book published in the 1930's. Margaret Mitchell's heirs sold out their rights and for big bucks allowed Alexandra Ripley to write a piece of junk book even worse than Barbara Cortland romance novels. I was a huge fan of Margaret Mitchells book and the fake sequel by Alexandra Ripley was written just to cash in for money.Although I always admired the acting talent of Joanne Kilmer and Timothy Dalton, this is a really terrible film. The script is horrible and full of clichés. Ann Margarets cameo as Belle Watling is so awful I wanted to slap her.The only worthwhile thing in the movie is Sean Bean who gives a masterful bravura performance as the sexy, feral villain - Lord Fenton. Sean Bean's performance is along the lines of "The Man You Love to Hate" and portrays an unsafe sex symbol.But Sean Bean is only in the first half of the movie so you then have to be tormented with watching an incredibly long 6 hour movie with an insufferably boring script.Don't waste your money on this film, unless you are a hard core Sean Bean fan and just watch it for his wonderful performance.
