Watch Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman: The Heart Within For Free

the audience applauded

Really Surprised!

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

I have seen the entire series and enjoyed it a great deal, but several things bothered me about this movie. I liked some scenes, primarily those involving Elizabeth Quinn, the grandmother. Since I give the movie a low rating, I will explain why, without any spoilers: First, it is entirely set in Boston, so we see none of our old friends from Colorado Springs. As for the plot, several things seemed impossible or highly implausible. Events that should have taken weeks or possibly months occurred too fast, including a voyage across the Atlantic. And how was it possible to send a message to France in just a day? Marconi had not yet invented the wireless system and telegraphs couldn't be sent across the ocean without that technology. The plot included several paper-thin sequences, including attempted murder (with no credible motivation for such a drastic move) and a sudden medically unexpected death (and no attempt to explain it). Furthermore, I felt uncomfortable with what felt like a glorification of the Quinn women, Michaela and Colleen. Then the glorification of Brian at his new job (which by the way contradicted the naval career he had in the Christmas Carol episode, where Michaela saw the future). I liked it much better when the family had to strive hard for everything. I didn't feel any heart-wrenching challenge in this movie, despite the male-bias at Harvard Medical School that confronted Colleen and despite the discord with old Doctor Cook, Andrew's father (by the way, that contradicts the final TV episode, where Andrew said his parents were dead, and that's why they couldn't come to Colorado for his wedding with Colleen). Brian wore make-up to look older, which looked absurd. Sully wore an obvious and ugly wig of long hair.

I always wondered about what happened to Colleen and Andrew after the last episode left me hanging, and now i do!! This movie was so good that i hope they make another to show more of the Dr Quinn show we like. maybe do a Dr Quinn family reunion type movie? Also for those that want me to reveal what Colleen and Andrew were up to heres the spoiler.... WATCH THE MOVIE! :D I wont tell what happens, but many will be shocked and amazed and be left wanting more of the story. As always they are spot on with the dress and decorum of this period and will have you wanting to watch both movies again and again!! Please bring back this series if only to expand on the lives of the children and legacy Dr Quinn paved the way for!!

In the last TV movie after the series had ended on CBS, Dr. Quinn and family travel by train to Boston to visit her mother. Surprises were in store for each of them, especially Michaela and Brian.Upon arriving, the family learns of Mrs. Quinn's illness, which she was trying to keep hidden from her doctor daughter. Sully meets with the President of the United States, U.S. Grant, and Brian is hired as a columnist for the Boston Globe.This feature length episode is a great way to end the series, with a good storyline that stays fresh like the series had for many seasons. If this film had been released theatrically, it could have been a hit, but then again, you never know.

First, let me say I absolutely loved the series Dr. Quinn - Medicine Woman. My husband and 2 young sons would never miss an episode on Saturday night. So when I saw this on GMC the other night I decided to watch.So imagine my disappointment at this movie that seemed to be made in about 2 weeks time. Dr. Mike, Sully, Brian and Katie visit Michaela's family in Boston. I'm not sure what the time frame of this movie was supposed to be, but since 2 doctors from Europe traveled to Boston to perform surgery on Michaela's mother, you would assume it was months? However, the same pile of snow that was there in the first scene in Boston was still there at the end of the show.It was supposed to be around late Feb. or March when they arrived because they discussed the centennial in July which "was 4 months away".Now back in 1876, I don't know of any ship that could get from Paris to Boston in under a week but the season remained winter despite their long, long visit.The storyline was contrived, Sully had a ridiculous wig on and Brian's make-up was oh so obvious. Some of the scenes were just thrown in for some reason like the orphanage scene, the scene where Sully, in his mountain man clothes goes into some men's club and throws his hatchet. WARNING: SPOILER AHEADMichaela's mother was supposed to be healthy enough for a new pioneering heart surgery but died the same day the Paris doctors arrived to perform this new surgery. Michaela is the one who discovered her dead despite her being a rich patient who supposedly was getting good care.I don't know why this movie was made. Perhaps to appease the people who loved the series and couldn't understand why CBS canceled it. They did a grave disservice to fans.Don't bother, just watch the reruns, you'll be happy you did.
