I love this movie so much

Did you people see the same film I saw?

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

What a total disappointment. It's obvious that this movie was produced for one reason and one reason only: to steal money from the audience that was addicted to the TV series. However, this fraudulent scam is NOT what anyone was -- or should have been -- looking for. I gave the original TV series an 8.5 rating. I'd rate this less than half of that. Why? Because yet again...we're insulted with another in the long list of "back from the dead" characters. And after 4 years of seeing every relevant aspect of The Centre's inner workings, we're now supposed to believe that there were THREE pretenders who escaped at the same time? I don't think so. And given the utter stupidity of the actions of the main characters, at this point I really don't care what happens to any of them. They're ALL pretenders, and I'm tired of their silly little game(s).

I have waited so long for this movie and was so excited to finally get it. I am dearly hoping that there will be more of the same. This movie gets into your head and into your heart. I feel for the characters and have so enjoyed watching them all mature and change. The initial feelings of repulsion for some of the characters has not changed either. Great show, great movies, and please make more!! The Island of the Haunted left us with even more questions and I truly don't believe that Mr. Parker is even dead. People like that never die. I was glad to see Lyle lose his thumb, he didn't deserve it (ha, ha). Mr. Raines reminds me of "The Mummy" movies and the repulsive character in that. Please continue with this series. I have got more people hooked on this show since I bought the set and now everyone wants more.

Thanks for the first season on DVD. We really like the Pretender. We would have Pretender parties at the beginning and end of every season. Since it was canceled (at least no more new episodes) we haven't had a party in a while. Now with the DVD we can plan some parties and have our own Pretender marathon. We look forward to upcoming seasons on DVD also. I know that the end of the Pretender was suppose to wrap everything up and answer a lot of questions, but I don't believe it did that. I really would have liked to see Jarod and Sydney get together and do that fishing trip Jarod wanted to do. Miss Parker also needed to end up happy some way. As for Broots he sort of just vanished off the scene and what ended up happening to Angelo? I know this could never happen now, but it would have been nice. Thanks again for the DVD.

I really enjoyed this film. Continuing the Pretender ideals it gave the public more information on Jared and Miss Parker. Although a few characters needed haircuts (in my opinion) it did not detract from the feel of the event. The writers obviously put much work into the script and many hours on the set in Canada. I must tell you that I revere these actors for working so hard for their fans, it shows a lot for them in the long run. They're not selfish individuals. I recommend this movie because it has family values - along with a little violence - but what family has NO violence? Hello! That's what I thought. It also has characters that the audience comes to know and relate to, people they feel a connection with. Miss Parker is my favorite character. She shows that women really can kick butt even in the middle of a man's world.
