Rating:  - I CAN'T BELIEVE I PAID MONEY FOR THIS
Where to start ... well, we have a highly-predictable and rather thin & inane plot. Next we have voice-overs by the actors that sound just like they're reading a script in a studio. Then there is the animation, if we can call it that. I was going to call it Scooby-Doo animation, but even that is much better. Here we have mostly 2D computer animation, punctuated occasionally by some 3D computer animation which does nothing but call attention to how flat and uninvolving the 2D animation is. And the animation, by the way, is very limited and basic. The eyes move from one side to the other, the head moves up & down, the mouth opens and closes, but that's about it. Sure, it's got some nice colors and some interesting character design, but on the whole it comes off as something you'd expect to see on the internet, for free, not something you paid money for. Sort of reminds me of Flash animation. There you go. You have been warned.
Rating:  - cartoon doctor who adventures are good fun
BBC america shop needs to thanked for bringing this out in this region.
At first there was some doubt wether we would ever see this dvd available here. Many fans went to the bbc america shop website and recommended this and it made a difference. This is a fun cartoon adventure for the whole family which is worth buying and adding to your doctor who collection. After all the classic doctor who stories and newer doctor who are family friendly too. I would suggest going both to the bbc doctor who site and the bbc america shop site and asking for further unreleased cartoon adventures that are provided from the online doctor who site as well. There is even a cartoon adventure of a version of the doctor played by richard e grant. Anyways if you love doctor who you will enjoy this cartoon version of the newest doctor , and the price is very affordable too.
Rating: - Episodic and meant for the younger viewers...
This release assembles the individual weekly bits of a Doctor Who animated adventure originally broadcast on a BBC Children's activity show based around the BBC TV Show "Doctor Who" in 2006-7. It's the first time it's been available here in the U.S.
As such, it is episodic, and juvenile, rather thin on plot and fairly transparent for adult viewers. But the under-12 set will love it, and it's entertaining enough for adults, provided you're already a fan of the revamped BBC TV Series.
Non-essential Whovian programming if you're not a completist, but perfect for family viewing. Four out of five stars.
