Product: Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story
Rating: 1.0
Terrible
Luckily I didn't buy this movie because I saw the miniseries on TV. The main thing I didn't like about the second movie, Anne of Avonlea, was the how Sullivan Entertainment insisted on changing the story from what actually happened in the books. I don't see why since the books were much more exciting then what they added in. Anyway, this movie is not based on any of the books. The only thing that comes from an L.M. Montgomery book is the characters' names. I think Sullivan Entertainment just wanted to make a movie about WWI and figured Anne Shirley would be a good selling point.One problem started in the original movie, Anne of Green Gables, which was that it was set several years after the books. In the books Anne and Gilbert are married right after Gilbert finishes college, they never go anywhere near the United States, or leave the island for that matter, and their children are the ones that go off to fight in the war.I'm very disappointed in Sullivan Entertainment for using the love people have for these books to con them into buying a worthless movie.Honestly, even if you have never read the books I don't believe you would like this movie. The characters don't even have the same type of personalities they had in the previous movies and the entire thing is very poorly done.
