Absolutely the worst movie.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
This is a pretty funny short where The Tenth Doctor and The Fifth manage to bump into each other out of time thanks to Ten not raising the shields while flying. There's some banter between them and Five finds out Ten is a future re-incarnation of him. The "You're a fan!" line was hilarious and I always love it when I see multiple Doctors on screen together. And while I do love it when Doctor Who does these little shorts for charity I am going to have to play the bad guy on one major aspect in this short. Peter Davison acts nothing like he did on his run as five! I'm sure any fan of the old and new show will be able to see that he is exactly like Ten, only Ten is more hyperactive. Despite that it is a decent enough homage to the classic show and I would say it is entertaining to watch despite me thinking it's perplexing why they didn't have that little nod before Voyage Of The Damned or The Last Of The Time Lords. Either way, It is worth taking a look at.
"Doctor Who: Time Crash" is, as the title already suggests, a Doctor Who short film from almost 10 years ago. The story here is that the (then) current Doctor Who meets his equivalent from the past. Of course, this story had to be taken up at some point with all the time travel references and here it is. However, their dialog for roughly 8 minutes is neither too inspiring nor really memorable. Nothing stays in the mind. Then again, I am not the biggest Doctor Who fan anyway, so fans of the series may see this differently. That's also what the IMDb rating implies. Graeme Harper directed this and he worked on several Doctor Who episodes as well. I hope the are funnier and smarter than this boring short movie. Not recommended.
This little 8-minute special, which exists chronologically right between the third and the fourth seasons of "Doctor Who", is quite possibly the best thing that the new series has offered us so far. I laughed out loud, I cried (I've never even watched a single episode of the old series - and yet David Tennant's "All my love to long ago" at the end had more emotional power than, say, the Doctor-Rose farewell scenes at the end of "Doomsday"), I had my mind boggled in a way only "Blink" (also written by Steven Moffat) had managed to do before, and I admired the subtle way Tennant breaks out of character at the end to express his own personal feelings. This special celebrates not only a part of "Doctor Who" history, but also the past in general, the things that shape and define us. The ONLY reason I'm deducting half a star is because of the reference to L.I.N.D.A: first of all, how could the Fifth Doctor know about them, and second of all, who wants to be reminded of the worst episode of the entire series ("Love And Monsters") while they are watching the best (this one)? ***1/2 out of 4.
Doctor Who: Time Crash is a short (under 10 minutes) little piece made specifically for the 2007 BBC Children in Need night of fund raising.There's no real story other than the fifth Doctor (Peter Davison) ends up meeting the tenth Doctor (David Tennant) in the TARDIS just after he leaves Martha (Freema Agyemen) on Earth at the end of season 3 of the new series.I actually thought it was a nice little fun self referential piece where doctor number ten pokes a bit of fun at one of his previous incarnations while Doctor number five at first thinks he's a loony fan & criticises the new interior of the TARDIS likening the change to that of a Windows desktop! There are some amusing references to various enemy's, Doctor fives traits & some of his companions. I actually smiled on a few occasions & Time Crash has enough continuity with he series as a whole to become an accepted part of it in it's own right. It's certainly far more serious & sensible in tone than the silly Dimensions in Time (1993).Hell, I liked it, I like both David Tennant & Peter Davison although he has noticeably aged which is explained by the time difference or something technobable like that & it also features Freema Agyeman at the start (in footage taken from the end of Last of the Time Lords(2007)) & I admit I have the hots for her & really like her in general so that also helps. At the end Doctor number ten says Doctor number five was his Doctor & in fact in reality Peter Davison would have been David Tennant's first Doctor as he grew up which I thought was a nice little touch.It never leaves the confines of the new style TARDIS & actually leaves you wanting something a bit more substantial, a complete proper story to feature both Tennant & Davison (I wouldn't have said no to Freema Agyeman appearing as well) would have been nice if this little taster was anything to go by. I thought it was a fun little piece & a nice accompaniment to both the new & old series that works well within the context of both. But then again what do I know? The end features a gratuitous plug for the upcoming Christmas special Voyage of the Damned (2007) & also features more footage from the end of Last of the Time Lords.
