You know what I'm about to say Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/06/25 Full Review Kai L I know a lot of people say the movie was bad but I disagree. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/06/25 Full Review Audience Member It's Doctor Who if it was written by an American who'd watched a couple episodes and was then asked to make a predictable Hollywood style movie out of it.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review איתמר × A good and engrossing TV movie that shows us an excellent example of possible things and options that can be done as a Doctor movie. Every fan of the Doctor must see it, and in particular for people who follow the Doctor or British TV, I highly recommend it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/02/24 Full Review Eden S This movie was so fun and engaging. There wasn't a second I wasn't entertained. I loved the energy Paul mcgann brought to the character and his dynamic with the character Grace was a delight to watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
