Doctor Who is a 1996 motion picture based on the long-running sci-fi show Doctor Who. It is directed by Geoffrey Sax and stars Paul McGunn as a dazzling new Eight Doctor

The film tells the story of how the freshly-regenerated Doctor tries to rescue his time travelling machine called the TARDIS from another Time Lord the Master played by Eric Roberts. His companion for this film is a doctor Grace Holloway who helps him to regain his memory

This film is a delightful watch to any fan of the programme, but it also can be a good starting point for people who have never seen the famous TV show. The perfomances, especially Eric Roberts', are hilariously campy, and the new opening theme is a marvellous rendition of the classic tune. This film quite literally screams that it was produced in the 90s, and if you love this era of films and television then you'll certainly enjoy the movie. The screenplay by Matthew Jacobs is perfectly serviceable except for one infamous line that divides the whole fandom till this day (I won't say which line exactly, but if you know you know)

Overall, Doctor Who is a masterpiece in eyes of many fans who sometimes consider it to be a comfort watch and especially nice way to celebrate New Year's Eve, but casual viewers can also enjoy this film. I definently recommend it to everyone
