Product: Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story
Rating: 3.0
Okay, but doesn't equal the first 2 movies
Alrite, this movie was pretty good, and I liked it well enough because Megan Follows and Jonathan Crombie returned to portray the memorable Anne Shirley and Gilbert Blythe. Of course, as in most cases, this movie did not equal or surpass the first two movies. The ending seemed a little too disappointing and disheartening; furthermore, the movie itself did not carry the same magic that "Anne of Green Gables" and "Anne of Avonlea" had, mainly because this one was not shot in Avonlea. It's basically a film about WWI that just happens to have Anne and Gilbert as the stars. We remember the "Anne" movies as magical films with gorgeous scenery and the beautiful Avonlea; this is a war story and therefore does not have the same enchantment. Of course, if you are an avid "Anne" fan like me, by all means watch this edition and enjoy seeing your favorite characters for the third time.
