The film is a classic in every way, with the conventional Doctor Who elements, with the Master, a lost Doctor, a confused companion and another person who also helps the Doctor but never receives the same amount of credit as the woman companion.
I thought the McGann was really good, he was quirky and serious but was able to not make the humorous moments stupid and so was able to keep the adult audience entertained. He also had the amazingly cool outfit to go with it that was as amazing as his cool curly hair.
The plot is featured around the Doctor's 8th regeneration into McGann after he is shot after stepping out of the tardis. After he is shot he is taken to hospital where his surgeon, Grace (Daphne Ashbrook) discovers that he has 2 hearts. Once the Doctor regenerates in the morgue and is conscious again he soon finds Grace who realises that he changed his face but is the same man that she was operating on and helps the Doctor realise that the Master (Eric Roberts) is back and wants to take away the rest of the Doctor's life's as he's used all of his up.
A really nice family friendly film, I did enjoy it as a big Doctor Who fan and felt that it was particularly good for the era with graphics and pyrotechnics.
