Product: Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story
Rating: 1.0
Very Disappointing
As a child, my mother and I sat and watched the original Anne of Green Gables too many times to count; we both loved it so much. So, when it was announced that they were doing another sequel to the movie, we were both excited. However; as we were expecting it to be as close to the original book as the previous movies were, we were both grievously disappointed and had to force ourselves to continue to watch it to the bitter end.This movie has none of the charm and none of the warmth of the original. In fact, it is such a departure from "Anne of Green Gables" that it really doesn't seem like part of Anne's story at all. Every action seems out of character for all involved and the storyline is too ludicrous to be belived. Even if this had been a movie that was separate from "Anne of Green Gables" this movie would not be worth seeing at all. There is absolutely nothing about this movie to recommend it to anyone, even for an Anne fan like myself. It's downright boring.If you want a wonderful story, a more believable story, and a more heart-warming story, read the books that take place after the original movies: "Anne of Avonlea", "Anne of Windy Poplars", "Anne's House of Dreams", "Anne of Ingleside", "Rainbow Valley", and "Rilla of Ingleside"
