Anne of Green Gables DVD : The Continuing Story customer’s review

AoGG dvd, The Continuing Story : B-
This last movie was not horribly bad as other people said, but it does pale greatly in comparison with the first two. The continuing story was made in 2000 and people had extremely high expectations. I would have to say that out of the three movies (AoGG, Anne of Avonlea, The continuing story), AoGG:The continuing story is far the movie I liked the least. I would not say that it was a total flop , but my expectations were way higher. The quality of the story certainly does not compare with the first two movies. First, the movie does not follow any story from the books. I believe was based after Rilla of Ingleside, but certainly doesn’t reflect the book at all. Second, The Continuing Story doesn’t have that romantic/dreamy/poetic side the first two movies have. Third, the movie takes place in a totally different setting, during World War One, which is the setting of Rilla of Ingleside. The story does fall a little bit flat and the writers seem to have lost the essence of who is Anne Shirley. I would say that out of AoGG context, this is an okay movie, but taking in account that this movie is supposed to be the continuing story, it really takes out a lot of what made us love Anne. While I would give both AoGG and Anne of Avonlea A++++, I give the last DVD a B-, because, despite of the story being not great, we still love Megan Follows. The first two movies left me with a warm feeling in my heart, and the last dvd, I’m afraid, left me somewhat cold.

Conclusion : Anne of Green Gables DVD, big yes to the first ones, the third one only for the ones who can keep their expectations low!

Anne of Green Gables DVD set : customer’s review

Purchased AoGG DVD set

I just purchased the AoGG DVD set (AoGG + Anne of Avonlea) for my daughter… and for myself!! I myself am a big fan of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s books. I have every single book from the Anne series, from AoGG to Rilla of Ingleside. I have read the books … gosh several decades ago. I remember when I first discovered the book, going to the library and devouring those books days and night. When I first saw the movie… well I simply fell in love with everything. Kevin Sullivan did such a good job for the first 2 movies (AoGG and Anne of Avonlea). The cast was amazing and wonderfully played their character. My favorite character has to be Anne Shirley (played by Megan Follow) for sure! The settings and the costumes were in the movies were also wonderful. Although the DVDs do not exactly followed the story from the books (it’s a compilation of the book), I think they really preserved the essence of the story and recreate the magic and the dreamy flavor of the book.

Simply love the series and the DVD!

I recorded this mini-series on my VHS years ago… I am so glad I bought the DVD version as the quality is so much better! My VHS version has some cuts because of the commercials, and I did missed of few seconds there and there, when I wasn’t ready to record when the commercials where over LOL. I haven’t watched Anne of Green Gables of Anne Shirley in years, but when I watched it, wow, it really touched my heart, as if I was watching the movie for the first time again! And you just can’t not fall in love with Gilbert Blythe (or re-fall in love in my situation). Jonathan Crombie and Megan Follows just make such a cute couple! And that KISSSS… Sorry for the spoiler!! =)

Best mini-series of my childhood

I grew up with those movies and those books, and after years, I still am taken away by the quality and how wonderful this mini-series is. I am so glad I bought this Anne of Green Gables dvd. You just can’t help but love Anne and her fun turmoils. There are 2 parts, Anne of Green Gables, Anne of Avonlea and a third movie, Anne of Green Gables : The continuing story was made in the early 2000 and does not follow the books. This Anne of Green Gables dvd is not an exact replica of the books as it does not follow it page by page, but is rather a combination of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s novels. Whether you are a fan of L.M. Montgomery’s books or never read her book, you will love the movie. And if you haven’t read the books, I highly recommend reading them as well!

Timeless movie you and your family will love.
This is a charming mini series. The Anne of Green Gables DVD will enchant your whole family, including the non romantic ones. The story: End of the 19th century. Anne Shirley is a young orphan, 10 years of age, who is adopted by Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, two siblings who live in Green Gables. Anne Shirley is a red hair girl, full of spirit and drive, who has a rich imagination. Her high sense of creativity and overflowing imagination bring her to live fun adventures and brings lots of turmoils to the people around her, in the village of Avonlea. Despite all her best intentions, Anne seems to always find herself in trouble. Most of the story involves Anne, her new best friend, Diana, and, of course, the handsome Gilbert Blythe with whom Anne has a very tumultuous relationship.

Young like old, boy like girls will be impressed with this film. This movie, adapted from the famous novel from Lucy Maud Montgomery is beautiful movie, both for the quality of the production and the details brought to every aspect of the movie. The movie is absolutely beautiful, the landscapes are a real delight and the details put in the setting and the costumes are remarkable.

The actors are a great fit with the characters they play and Megan Follow, who plays Anne Shirley and was 16 years old when they filmed the movie is outstanding. She plays this dreamy, smart and talkative little girl with lots of talent.
