Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman: The Movie

I can always count on Dr.Quinn Medicine Woman to make me laugh. Hysterically. I won't even bother to recount the - excuse me for swearing - 'plot' of his movie. But I can tell you that 'I love you', 'I love you mommy' and 'I love you pappy' is about as deep as it gets.

However, raise a glass with me and toast the blatant anachronisms, Jane Seymour's distinctly 20th Century hair and make-up (her mascara is piled on so thick that it resembles spider legs), the clichéd plots, the tweeness, the simplistic and vomit-inducing moral sentiments, the silly storylines etc.etc.etc. This is US TV at its lowest common denominator. No punch, no guts, no edge, utterly unmemorable. I'd like to personally shake the hand of the person that decided it was time to pull the plug. It is, always has been and remains, the televisual equivalent of valium.

I saw this film, and thought it was pretty good. Being a fan of "Dr. Quinn," I was pretty ticked off when they took the series off of CBS. The movie plot was excellent, it was fast-paced, and all turned out well in the end. Worth watching, especially if you're a fan. :)

I did not get to watch this movie when it first aired but I did get to see it when Lifetime showed it in April. I thought the movie was great! Everyone on did a fabulous job with there acting, directing, writing, exc. I love the DQ series and I thank Hallmark channel for keeping it on. I hope there is a third DQ movie made.

For the nostalgics of series, a must see. Same atmosphere, actors, dramatic situations, moral lessons spirit of community.

For the others, good exercise to rediscover the flavors of Dr. Quinn series and the measure to feel same emotions.

A film about parenthood, lost of child, solidarity, gratitude and change of life. Not great but nice at whole.

I did not really enjoy this movie or find it engaging, but my interest in the show waned sometimes too.

I was incredulous to aspects of the plot, which I don't want to spoil. I did predict where it was going, but was briefly distressed by where it might have gone.

I found the acting mostly dull, and I was disappointed with missing characters and other things from the series. I felt Michaela and Sully in particular were a bit cold, and they had unrealistic but not particularly passionate arguments. There were two brief moments I remember finding their performances compelling.

There honestly wasn't much dialogue... I would've have appreciated some more, to further explain certain situations. It was written by someone who worked on the series, but seemingly not towards the end of the show, which may explain why some things were missing. I think it needed more involvement from Beth Sullivan (she's merely listed as creating the characters)

Sidenote : Sully's hair must be a wig.
