Movie Reviews of Doctor Who - The Complete First Series
Movie Review: All the Whos down in Whoville rate this Who a Who
Summary: 5 Stars
Every time a new Doctor took over the role, some of the Doctor Who fans complained that the new one wasn't a "real Doctor Who". Generally, they were wrong. This new one is no exception.
Christopher Eccleston brings considerable talent to the role, and his portrayal is odd and quirky, always a bit distracted, but not exactly like any of the other Doctors, which means that he really has managed to catch the essence of the Doctor.
The Doctor always has at least one companion, generally a pretty female, and this Doctor is no exception. Billie Piper plays Rose Tyler, who comes off as a bit of an airhead at first, but quickly shows herself to be someone that comes through in a pinch. Of course, like all of the Doctor's companions, she also shows that she cannot follow simple instructions, but that has been true of every companion since Susan and Barbara.
The sets and costumes are somewhat better, but still a bit cheesy. Again, like the earlier versions.
In essence, the people making the new series have an obvious respect and love of the earlier series. No, it isn't exactly like the earlier shows. If it were just a copy, then it really wouldn't be true to the spirit of the original.
The show is fun to watch. Once fans of the earlier shows get over the fact that neither Jon Pertwee nor Tom Baker will be back, they'll enjoy this verstion too.
