Most helpful review Anne Of Green Gables - The Continuing Story

    Pish, pish, pish, pish, pish!!!!!!!! The first of this trilogy 'Anne of Green Gables' was a complete delight, stayed true to the books (as much as you can on TV), and captured the spirit perfectly. The second was where the rot began, departing from L.M Montgomery's vision, with several jarring notes, but still gave you a basic gist of who Anne was. This final 'installment' is an insult to the beautiful legacy Montgomery left us. It smacks of a terrible arrogance to ignore one of the most moving Anne books, 'Annes House of Dreams' and totally and utterly invent a story that's not even the correct era! I always quite liked the cast, but they're really struggling with this, the script is terrible, the whole thing is sloppy in the extreme. My young daughter, who has read all the Anne books and seen the first 2 of the series, refused to watch the rest of this after half an hour, and I wish I had followed her example. The whole thing smacks of a money making scheme. Complete rubbish, do yourselves a favour and read the books instead. Boo Hissssssss!!!!!

    Anne of Green Gables the continuing story was very enjoyable.It is full of tribes and tribulations that the main characte has to endure. Definately unrealistic at times but great escapism.....

    decent enough film but do not expect this 3rd part to be anything like the books. it takes a completely different tangent before coming round full circle. watchable but a real shame that it wasnt more like the amazing books like the 1st(anne of green gables) and 2nd (anne the sequel). one nice thing to see is that it is the same actors throughout although they have aged. and shame for us girls that there wasnt more of the gorgeous gilbert blythe in the film.

    I watched and loved the first 2 installments of this series as a teenager. I rented this 3rd episode but was dissapointed to discover that I was only sent 1 disc of a 2 disc set. It is listed as only having one disc but it isn't. Unfortunately I got part 1 but was never sent the next disc although I did report it as a problem.

    This doesn't follow the books too closely but if you enjoy the stories by L.M Montgomery then you should watch this. The heartwarming story of the other Anne Shirley books is slightly overshadowed by the atrocities of war but the romance shines through in the end. We highly recommend this film
