Gilligan (Bob Denver), the Skipper (Alan Hale Jr.), the Howells (Jim Backus, Natalie Schafer), the Professor (Russell Johnson), Mary Ann (Dawn Wells), and Ginger (Judith Baldwin) have been shipwrecked for 15 long years, but when a decaying Soviet satellite crashes on the uncharted tropical island, their dreams of rescue finally come true! Or do they?!

Summary: Gilligan's Rescue
Comment: It was very enjoyable and I would definitely use this service again. Connie Johnson

Summary: TOO MANY VERSIONS AVAILABLE
Comment: I'm going to go out on a limb, but I assume the latest DVD release is the one that has "Rescue" "From" and "Island" in blue letters and "Gilligan's" in red letters. Gilligan's head is on left and Skipper's is on right with the professer and the skipper at the bottom. The reason I'm not sure is because Amazon has the DVD release date January 1, 1978. Now I know I haven't been on a desert island, but I'm pretty sure there was no such thing as DVDs in 1978. Many versions have the opening theme and end credits removed. This may or may not be one of them. Personally I thought the basic idea of the story was very good. Giving us the chance to see the castaways attempt resume the lives they knew before the shipwreck. If you're not sure which version to buy, as I'm not sure either. I can only recommend getting 24 FILM comedy star SUPERPACK. It has the complete Rescue From Gilligan's Island with opening and ending credits along with 23 other movies. But be warned the picture is fuzzy. I hope someday an official release will happen soon.

Summary: Less than stellar story line.
Comment: I am a great fan of Gilligan's Island and own the entire series. The rescue TV movie didn't seem to follow the same writing technique so carefully scripted back in the mid 60's and fell short of my overall expectations.

Summary: disappointing
Comment: I have been a fan of Gilligan Island all my life, and I own all three seasons, that it was on. This was clearly a poor attempt to recapature the magic that was so great in the orignal airing on the show.
When I say disappointing I mean that the video quality wasnt even as good as it was in the orignal episodes, They had to replace Ginger with another woman, As Tina Louise was fed-up with always being tied to her character in the show, so she refused to be a part of anything that would full-fill that image she created. My advise would have been, get over your self, america fell in love with orignal cast, and un-doubtly you made some money as "Ginger Grant", so get in there and come full circle.
The other disappointing factor of the movie was that, when it came to the point where they were to go their own ways, the scene was was simple "ok, see you later", and they all just walked off in different directions, but the only fitting end to the story was that they took a reunion tour on the new "MINNOW II", and wouldnt you know they got lost at sea again, and landed on the same island.
I am sure with a little more thought it would have been a better movie.

Comment: It's cheesy but it's funny. The old Ginger was great, the one on this movie was not! Don't like the ending.
