Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Stephan Hammond
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I don't understand how any of the other people who have commented have not enjoyed this movie! I thought it was fabulous! I too have read the book and I personally was disgusted with it! The writing of the movie was much much much much better and the acting was superb! Vanessa Williams never fails to bring a wonderful show to the screen, whether she's acting, singing or dancing! Brooke Sheilds was incredible and very good in her role, as was gail o'grady! I recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in seeing a quality movie about 3 women doctors who struggle to be considered equals!

My brother and I discovered Sidney Sheldon's books in 1995. Make no mistake about them, though: they're not for kids. People have called him a schlockmaster; that all his books are trashy soap operas filled with goody-two shoes sexpot heroines, nasty villains, very little logic, and plenty of steam. Yet, once you start reading one, you won't stop; it's lurid fun and he has a way with words to describe what's happening. With his patented "italics", which describe what the characters are really wanting to say or are thinking (much like Martin Tupper from "Dream On") and his exotic locales, the man has been a success. Yes, his books are sleazy, nasty, sex-filled escapades, but they're great fun. A guilty pleasure.I was looking forward to seeing this T.V. miniseries because "Nothing Lasts Forever" was the first book we bought. The story is about the lives of three women doctors from different backgrounds who work at a county hospital in San Francisco. Granted, there was stuff in the book that couldn't be shown on T.V., but most of the story was compelling and tame enough to show. Instead, somebody decided to completely re-write the story in some half-assed fashion, and the result is awful for anyone who was a fan of the book. It would take "forever" to mention the changes, but the one I love is the casting for Dr. Betty Lou "Honey" Taft. Ms. Taft was described as an average-looking woman. They cast BROOKE SHIELDS! BROOKE SHIELDS!! Well, I guess those crazy eyebrows hurt her looks...I don't think this miniseries is on video or DVD, but if it is, and you haven't read the book and you'd like to see Gail (NYPD Blue) O'Grady, Vanessa (Mrs. Rick Fox/Penthouse Scandal) Williams. Brooke, Gregory (B-Level Hunk/Gonzo) Harrison, and Chris (Sex And The City) Noth in a tame film with horrible fully clothed sex scenes (the one with Noth and Williams is pathetically done), go on ahead. Otherwise, read the book and just imagine.

Boring adaptation of a Sydney Sheldon novel about the lives and the relationships of three young interns (Grady, Shields and Williams) in a great hospital in São Francisco. Overlong and without nothing to appreciate; the story is lame and predictable and the cast gives cardboard performances all around, especially the three lead actress. Only Lloyd Bridges and Mc Raney gives some sparky moments in their scenes. I give this a 5 (five).

Of course, Sidney Sheldon's novel was much better than movie. Gerald Di Pego made too much changes in the plot. If you've read the novel you can notice many differences. For example, in movie Ken Malory didn't kill Vanessa Williams' character and there wasn't a character named Alfred, he was the first Paige's fiance. Yes, I like the novel more than movie, but I can't say that this movie is bad. If you haven't read the novel and will watch this movie first, I think, if you like romances, you will like this movie, especially women.
