However, the general storyline remains similar, and I think it was the first time the Dalek voices sounded at all decent. Perhaps it can be forgiven for changing too much and deviating from the TV series with it's simple charm and some oddly placed jokes. It's a high budget stroll through familiar ground and can be a great film to watch when you're with a group of fans. This could be great, but failed a bit.
As I undertake an entire Doctor Who marathon, including one or two spin-offs and related media, I'll post a short review of each serial as I finish it. Please comment if you like any of my reviews.

Dr. Who and the Daleks
It was the first time the Daleks had been seen in colour, and on the big screen as well. It's a great children's film, but only if you forget that it's supposed to be Doctor Who. Peter Cushing plays Dr. Who, an eccentric English inventor who has invented TARDIS. If you're a fan of the series, the film seems a little strange compared to the serial "The Daleks". It get a lot of things wrong and has dumbed down a lot of the things that make Doctor Who what it is.
