An Exercise In Nonsense
StyleSk8r
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Aneesa Wardle
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Guillelmina
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I have watched this show for as long as I can remember. I was born in 77 and watched as a little kid. My parents were fans and I got into it (they both watched all ABC soaps). I was also a fan of AMC/OLTL/Loving/Port Charles. I knew people felt it was weird for a guy to like soaps but I didn't care... I was hooked. I remember VCR days and taping every show so I could watch after school and rushing home to catch GH in time LOL! I have fond memories of characters staring out on the show that are still on today. Luke and Laura, Frisco and Felicia, Robert and Anna, The Q's and all the bickering and backstabbing, Robin being there since she was a kid... etc. The show has changed a lot over the years but I would like to think I am as much a an today as I was back in the day.

I always remembered this as being a lazy written show, with characters I didn't mind. Actors I saw later in films, surprised me, when they popped up in this, in re runs, who I didn't recognize when watching them on the big screen. One being George (Commandant Lassard) Gaynes. When I think of GH, I always think think of Genie Francis, who I've loved and sort of had a crush on, in my preteen days. Jackie Zeman, a reception worker, was kind of like the vixen, that's as far as Laura was concerned. There was a streak of jealousy and spite in her, over Bobby. We do too remember Rick "Jessie's Girl" Springfield, the first Aussie to make it in American soap, only GH wasn't the best quality of soaps, of course running up against Young And The Restless, Ryan's Hope, Search For Tomorrow. It was a trite bland, but overly dramatic cheese too. The cool thing about it, was it's misleading title, that had nothing to do at all with the patients of the hospital, but the ins and outs of people who worked at the hospital. Ironic hey. But not all soapies are perfect.

So am I deeply concerned about the future of GH's wonderful and exciting plots! I've been watching this soap opera for nearly one month! General Hospital had its own recommendation in my case and I had it described in the best possible quality. I was considering me joining the show and start belonging to this world,world of GH and its fans. As you can guess,I made up my mind to become a part of GH! And I still do not dare to use any bad or negative word for describing it!First of all,I would like to mention,that this soap opera really makes my every day. It is still alive and active in my dreams, it is inside me, it's a living soul in my heart. Never before have I been so obsessed about any soap opera. General Hospital can boast about its remarkable climate,atmosphere. Every episode starts with jumping from one scene to another. It's really gorgeous. It is some kind of quick skin. You can take pleasure from enjoying 5 or 6 various scenes of sometimes different stories. It makes this soap opera look versatile. It is my impression,my constant impression. What is more, General Hospital has a very fresh stories. It is linked to the world of drama, sensation...it's also stocked with joke,fun,here I have this entire story with Kate Howard and Sonny Corinthos on my mind. Their quarrels,fights and 'arguments presentations' have this power to make viewers laugh loudly in front of their TV's or computers... Furthermore,GH shows totally different characters. We watch characters,that are absolutely opposite to each other. Jerry Jacks/Jax Jacks - Jerry,who was named Craig was torturing 15 people in a hotel,treating them with a little bit of cruelty,with no honour and goodness. Jax is his younger brother,capable of sacrificing his own private life for his bad brother! Jax is the ideal brother,husband,son... Jason - Lucky. Jason is this type of man,who is supportive for women,calm,who usually respects others. Lucky is a volcano! Lucky was abandoned by his own father,Luke Spencer,that's why his behaviour makes others feel very bad for him. Disappearing of Jake let this whole amount of Lucky's anger appear and start making trouble in his life. Lucky,instead of comforting his wife Elizabeth, accused her of turning back on Jake! It made me furious! There are a lot more opposities,but I would like to leave this aspect now.Last events in GH are remarkable! Disappearing of Jake,Sam's secrets,that are coming out,Jax,who is searching for his brother,Luke taking Laura etc.! I'm just after the episode from the 27th of June and I...I am only about to say,that I'm dying to watch the next episode!Cheerz!

When I was a kid in the 70s, I watched soaps with my mother. It was all the ABC ones. All My Children, One Life to Live and General Hospital. When I was about 12 or 13. Luke and Laura got married, I wanted to see it so bad, I told my mother I was sick and stayed home from school. Over the years I stopped watching the other two and stuck with GH. It's still the best soap I've ever seen. It's not as good as it used to be but it's good. I would love to see less Sonny and Carly and more Luke and (whoever). When Luke was the hero, the show as truly great. Since now it's all about Sonny, it's getting really boring. The same old mobster stuff, Sonny isn't heroic he's a crook.Maybe in the future GH will regain it's backbone. Maybe draw clear lines between good and evil like it did in it's hey day.Rayvyn
