SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Syl Anne of Avonlea is another wonderful addition. Not much in casting has changed. Megan Follows will forever be recognized and known as the Anne Shirley of my generation and those generations that follows but it's a commanding role that is enduring and wonderful too. Colleen Dewhurst returns to her role as Marilla Cuthbert and Dame Wendy Hiller even has a supporting role. I love Anne and Gilbert's relationship as it evolves from childhood through puberty and adulthood. Anne's coming of age story here is beautifully crafted to display the same brilliance as it was in the original Anne of Green Gables. The cast, the crew, the writers who adapted the novel to the screen, the cinematographer who was faithful to the Canadian history and literary contributions that Lucy Maud Montgomery developed in this novel. The costumes and set direction are faithful to the time period. Watching Anne of Green Gables, you want to visit and perhaps move your family to Prince Edward Island in Canada.
tylerlover The Sequel, to me, was probably my favorite out of all the Anne movies. This one just had more laughs, more fun, more...Gilbert! The Sequel is mainly, Anne leaving Green Gables to forgo her teaching career, saying fairwell to her "bosom friend," and having mixed feelings for Gilbert and Morgan Harris(one of her student's father). This movie also has a great sense of humor and heartwarming romance. I just love this movie to death. And Megan Follows, Jonathan Crombie, and Colleen Dewhurst, do a FANTASTIC job on playing their characters, and playing them so well. I don't think Sullivan could of asked for anyone better than to ask these amazing performers to take on such wonderful roles. I would truly LOVE to see an Anne 5!
kromar I don't really understand the unsatisfaction. You had better blame him because of Anne 3. Poor Megan not even looks older than Anne could have been in 1915 and in 1919, but looks older than herSELF, also. She misses proper make-up first of all, proper lights during filming (2 or 3 scenes are only perfect) and last but not least good sentences. (Just see the page of memorable sentences! The first two parts have dozens, it only has three of them!) The story, well, it's even worse. So I must say, wether Anne 2 is true to the novels or not, it is a whole, compact story and is NOT boring, this sequel is only his own interpretation. After all, we've been waiting for the very last scene since Gilbert first called her 'Carrots'! Could you wait months for that moment? So I ask you: isn't that what we wanted?
Shannon Although the makers of this movie crammed 3 of L.M. Montgomery's novels into one television movie, it is still a delight to watch. The actors from the previous movie still shine on, especially the ones that played Anne and Gilbert.My favorite part of this movie will always be the ending scene when Anne finally falls in love with Gilbert.Watch it by yourself, with a friend, or with the family.
