Rating: Summary: Shocked and disappointed! Review: I came into this movie with lots of expectations and sweet memory from the original tv series but only found myself shocked and heart broken. The previous viewer was right about the problem of charactors inconsistency which was the main reason that destroyed everything good left from the original series. In my heart, Kellie Martin is always the Christy I remembered in the smoky mountain who was willing to fight for her children and Rand was the pastor who shared God's love in whatever he said or did. All of the above was missing in the movies and to my worst nightmare, what the charactors portrayed was just the opposite!!! The only actor I like is Dr. Neil McNeil. Please bring back the original cast back to the film production.

Rating: Summary: Shocked and disappointed! Review: I can't believe how much the quality of this series has gone downhill. Seeing someone other than Tyne Daly playing Miss Alice is almost enough to drive me to tears. No one can play Christy as effortlessly as Kellie Martin did. Thankfully Dr. McNeil is still played by the same actor, and he has become the only good reason to keep watching. The producers should have done anything, everything, whatever it took to re-assemble the original cast.

Rating: Summary: It's ok but it's nothing special! Review: I liked the TV show and was disappointed when Pax stopped showing the episodes and was so happy when I read that they were making new movies and I really looked forward to watching them and I tried to watch them but sorry to say that I just couldn't get into this or the other movies and was bored and I thought it was just adequate but nothing special!
Rating: Summary: Christy is amazing! Review: I liked this DVD. I think that the show with Kelly Martin was better though. For anyone who loves the books then this dvd is a must have!
Rating: Summary: So-so Review: Of the three new Christy movies, this is the weakest one. Only the characters of Neil, Fairlight, and Harriet are very good. The rest of the acting isn't very convincing. But if you are a fan of the old series, it answers some questions left open at the end of the series.
Rating: Summary: Disappointed... Review: The 1 star is for Stewart Finlay-McClennan returning as Dr. MacNeill. As one reviewer mentioned, Kellie Martin played Christy effortlessly. While Lauren Lee Smith tries her best, the performance is a bit...bland. Some lines seemed a bit forced & having seen the CBS series, it was difficult not to be dissappointed--knowing what 'could have been.' But it is worth the watch just for the story's sake.
Rating: Summary: The Return to Cutter Gap - Wonderful Comeback Review: The Return to Cutter Gap is a wonderful return from the old series. Where the original Christy series left us dieing to know what Christy's choice for husband would be, this new movie is a beginning of the end where we will finally see this Christian heroine choose the love of her heart. Shot in the beautiful mountains outside of Vancuver, B.C., the scenery is once again breathing taking. Some people will of course be dissapointed that Kellie Martin is not returning to her role of Christy, but Lauren Lee Smith (Dark Angel) does a fine job in the role. Stewart Finnley McLennan returns to play Neil McNeil, one of the love interests in Christy's life and James Waterston potrays the Boston preacher who also has his eyes on Christy. Award Nominee Diane Lad stars as Miss Alice and there are several of the actors from the orginal series that return to play their old parts. The story begins with an aged Christy returning to her old haunts in Cutter Gap bringing her daughter Catherine with her. The story is told to Catherine through the eyes of her mother who had a great deal of exciting, romantic, adventurous, and sad stories to relate. The first story revolves around several different occurences - the crash of a gorgeous female aviator in Cutter Gap, the building of a new road to El Pano, the dissaperance of many of the cove people's belongings, and Christy's encouragement of one of her pupils' desire to go to colledge. How do all of these different situations end up? Find out by watching Christy: The Return to Cutter Gap
