Rating: 1.0
Some people need to get a clue
In response to the review below, about Anne being a "true adventure?" Obviously, certain people think it beneath them to actually READ the books? Because the stars they WERE still able to obtain for this Anne movie would have been the ONLY ones necessary to continue the Anne story like it should have been. Naturally the author of the book has been long dead, she died even before the first movie was made, but this film was made by the same people that the other two were, and he screwed up pure and simple. The fact is, if you're going to make a movie that claims to be based on a classic tale, YOU STICK WITH THAT STORY! This movie could easily have been sold under a different title, without pretense towards following a well-known and beloved story. ANYONE who has read and loved the books would HATE this movie, and since those are the people who are going to jump to watch it first, those are the ones you need to please.Even WITHOUT the Anne setting, however, the story was weak, repetitive, and BORING! There was nothing exciting about it whatsoever. It was too dull to involve any real emotion, and the entire thing felt contrived. This movie would be awful even if Anne had nothing to do with it. But trying to insert a common story into THIS film's storyline makes it worse than it ordinarly would have been.
