Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor (2013)

Memorable, crazy movie

Highly Overrated But Still Good

A different way of telling a story

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The Doctor and Clara are carried of in the TARDIS to the Tower of London, UNIT's headquarters, where Kate Lethbridge Stewart lays in wait. The Doctor is shown a painting left by Queen Elizabeth 1st, 'Gallifrey falls,' showing the last days of Gallifrean City 'Arcadia,' On Gallifrey we see the devastating effects of the Time War, and how the War Doctor sets off the end the war, using a forbidden weapon. Fortunately the weapon has a conscience, in the guise of Rose Tyler it challenges him. The Doctor has more then just the time war to deal with, as the Zygons have also infiltrated UNIT. The Doctors seek to change their own time line, and look to sorting the Time war one and for all.The story of the Time War has run for many years, how fitting for the fiftieth that it gets explained. A clever concept, hopefully one that's over now. The childlike elements of both Smith and Tennant contrast really well with the bleakness and soured maturity of the War Doctor. The interplay between the two of them is just glorious. Both also work extremely well with John Hurt too, must have been daunting he is literally a living legend.It really pleased me that Billie was brought back, love or hate Rose, she played a hugely important role in helping the show get back on track. It's wonderful seeing her.In all honesty my favourite part was the appearance of Tom, it literally had me in tears with a lump in my throat, what better possible celebration to the show then to have the longest running Doctor appearing. He's just magic.The updated Zygons are amazing, among the most successful monster returns, they just look amazing, and the effect of them transforming into human copies fantastic. Talk about a long overdue return.10/10 so many elements make up a truly wonderful special, like an updated Five Doctors. Utterly wonderful.

For its 50th anniversary special, Doctor Who and its show runner Steven Moffat (Sherlock ; Doctor Who) took a brand new turn in the wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff ! Starring Matt Smith (the 11th doctor), David Tennant (the 10th doctor ; Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire), John Hurt (Alien ; Harry Potter), Jenna Coleman (11th doctor's companion) and Billie Piper (9th and 10th doctors' companion). This new 75 minutes installment of the series is one we'll hear about for a long time. The story starts, as it does by an emergency call. Matt Smith's doctor, newly reunited with Clara, his companion is contacted by the United Nations Intelligence Task-force (UNIT)'s director Kate Stewart. She demand him to join her as soon as possible in London's National Gallery to deal with instructions left by her majesty the Queen Elizabeth the 1st of England who apparently was married to the 10th doctor... During many flashbacks between the time when the doctor wasn't the doctor and unseen 10th doctor's adventure we travel across the time to go back to one incredibly important event : the destruction of Gallifrey. So, one question remains "No more" or "Gallifrey falls" ? This special will bring you to tears, you will laugh, you will praise Moffat and more than ever you will doubt everything in the Doctor Who canon !

Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor is truly considered to be a major 50th Anniversary failure. Why is this movie so STUPID and terrible and how it's bad? Here's why. First off, I'm kind of like the other half of George Lucas a little bit. I had the same problems George Lucas had with Star Wars. I tried to get Steven Moffat, the executive producer to get copyrighted characters from other franchises (such as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Power Rangers and other franchises). He replied to me in the summer of 2012 and he said he would do his best. I found a page for Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary Special on Wikipedia and clicked on the page thinking that Steven Moffat got characters from other franchises to guest star. But Steven Moffat had new ideas for the special and a new title for it: "The Day of the Doctor". And not only that, Steven Moffat couldn't get characters from other franchises to guest star in Doctor Who because of licensing issues. The BBC used their original ideas for the special instead. They threw my ideas in the trash and shut them out into the cold city dump forever. It's like there telling me the word "NO, I'm sorry but it's just not practical". We'll SCREW THAT! I give Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor zero stars for it because if Steven Moffat would've got my ideas into the special, my disappointment of the special wouldn't never have happened because if those copyrighted characters guest appeared in the special, then I would've been happy that characters from Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Power Rangers and other franchises are in it and things would've been a lot different for me and I wouldn't have to be so disappointed in Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor. But it didn't happen. But I wasn't always disappointed in the special. I was excited for it at the time but when I found out that none of the copyrighted characters made it in, that's when it all changed my excitement into huge disappointment.

Oh My Gosh!!!I was very impressed with this wonderful episode. I really think Steven Moffat did Doctor Who justice.I love that David Tennant was present for this episode and he did very well. Matt Smith is definitely my favorite doctor and he didn't show me any different during this episode. I am very ad he's leaving, but am looking forward to Peter Capaldi entering Doctor Who. I loved that he was in this episode. I think Jenna was amazing, she is one of my favorite companions (after Amy and Rory), and am looking forward to when she reappears in Season 8. I loved that Billie Piper was in this, but I have to say, I was a little disappointed with the role she played. I thought she was great, but was really hoping her and David got some interaction, sad to say that they didn't. But overall, I have to say a wonderful, exciting episode that I say 'Well Done' to everyone involved!
