Pleasantly Surprised
When I read "ecological thriller", I nearly lapsed into a coma thinking it would be very boring. Desperate to see all the "Classic Doctors" featured in this, I bought it anyway.I was blown away by how enjoyable this is! Colin Baker really does steal the show. He is just amazing.All of the cast are great. The storyline would actually have made a good Doctor Who story, had it still been around in the early 90s.It's obviously made on a small budget, but do not let that put you off. It's a very well written, well acted piece of sci-fi drama. Some of the reviews online are misleading. They would have you believe this was the worst story ever made. It's not. It's wonderful.

Surprisingly good - tight Eco-thriller from the cast of Doctor Who
Wasn't sure what to expect from this thriller which casts the majority of it's actors from "The World Of Doctor Who". But I was really surprised. The writing, direction and performances were top notch and really compelling. Yes, it's a little dated due to the time it was produced, but there's nothing that will detract from a tight, almost 'Edge Of Darkness" thriller that fits perfectly into a 60min story. Only downside is a) the production has been cropped/ARC'd to 16:9 from a 4:3 format which means tops of heads are sometimes cut off or bottom of screen GFX lost and b) Peri and The 6th Doctor get jiggy. Something I never wanted to see nor can remove from my memory!! Definitely recommended though.

Excellent film
I really enjoyed this, although I have already seen it a while back on VHS. I thought it would be nice to have a DVD copy and see all the extras on the disc.If you're a classic Doctor Who fan you'll probably like this, just for the thrill of having four Doctors all together. You'll also like this if you're a Colin Baker fan, he plays the leading role and comes across as a very naturally lovable character. We're also treated to a scene with Colin Baker naked in the shower which is rather brief and pointless but well worth leaving in the film! I won't go into explaining the plot as the other reviews have already done so, but suffice to say Colin Baker is outstanding in this. Peter Davison also gives a good performance.Some Doctor Who fans may be worried about watching the love scenes between the 6th Doctor and his companion but they are quite mild and tastefully done.If you've already seen the film this is well worth buying even if it's just for the extras. There are a lot of extra features on the DVD such as a 'making of', 'out-takes', 'deleted scenes', 'trailers' and interviews. The out-takes are quite funny, Sylvester and Colin are hilarious and it was nice to see the 'making of' behind the scenes clips. Plenty more Colin Baker nudity is included in the out-takes, which should please his fans.All in all this is a good film with a reasonable script and an excellent cast. No big special effects, just an enjoyable watch with a great cast of actors.

got better
The filming was a bit strange to start with and Peter Davison was acting as if he was on stage so I was glad when he was knocked off. As the film continued the actors saved the whole thing. The writing was rather light weight but improved by the delivery of the actors. They made something out of nothing.

The Airzone Solution
Great cast of old doctors :-) , but the story-line was a bit bland and just ends suddenly; the acting is also a bit wooden and the movie is cheaply made.

A Must for Classic Who Fans!!
Charming and highly enjoyable. Yes, it is low budget, but the performances are great and it is fun to see the Doctor Who actors interact. The story is interesting, if a tad silly, but I found it creative and thought-provoking. There are a bunch of awesome extras, which are absolutely fantastic! It's a good price for a fun DVD, and worth every penny. :) Highly recommended for a bit of silly classic Who fun. :) And did I mention Colin Baker in the shower?? :) :) Again, a must see! :)

Spirit
An interesting drama from one of the 2 companies that kept the spirit of Doctor Who alive diving the Wilderness Years of 1997-2004! The story is complicated, but who cares, look at all the Doctor Who actors working together!
