Doctor Who Review/New Years Review: Doctor Who: The TV Movie.

Cast
Paul McGann (8th Doctor), Eric Roberts (The Master), Daphne Ashbrook (Grace Holloway), Yee Jee Tso (Chang Lee), and Sylvester McCoy (7th Doctor) Directed by Geoffrey Sax.

Review
This film tried to restart Doctor Who after it was cancelled in 1989 after 26 years. Needless to say, it did not happen. The reason was low ratings in the US (Broadcast on Fox) Anyway, the acting from McGann is good, compared to Roberts', which isn't worth the makeup on him, which reminds me of the Terminator, probably unintentional. The plot is average fare, as its shorter then a usual serial, so it's easy thin to solve. "I'm half human, on my mother's side," Wait, earlier in the film, the Doctor (7th) said he wasn't human, he wasn't like you. Of course then he died, so yea...Anyway, I'd recommend the film for continuation at least, even if it isn't that good.

Overall, I give it a rating of 3 out of 5 stars.
