Doctor Who - The Movie

In this 1996 DOCTOR WHO TV movie, the seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) is returning to Gallifrey with the remains of the Master when the TARDIS malfunctions and lands in San Francisco on the eve of the new millennium. Events lead to the Doctor's eighth incarnation (Paul McGann) facing off against the not-so-dead Master, now in physical form (Eric Roberts). The understandably confused Doctor, fortunately, is aided by an attractive surgeon (Daphne Ashbrook).

    No... Just, no

    Ouch!

    Does not do Dr Who Justice, Tom Baker will be in is tardis right now cursing about this poor excuse for a film.

    Power rangers meets back to the future.

    Oh Dear

    To boldly go...

    Thus demonstrating that you can't always make something 'better' with expensive special effects. Dr Who just wasn't the same. A perfectly watchable film, but it just wasn't Dr Who. The charm was filtered out and 'getting the girl' polished the whole ethos into non-existence. Hollywood, leave my childhood alone! The costumes sucked and the props were obviously polystyrene but I liked it the way it was thank you very much.
