My initial instinct is this is something from the Lifetime Network. Actually this made-for-TV movie was originally shown on the American television network NBC. Almost everything about it is nothing but pure garbage. But apparently this passed for acceptable entertainment in 1996. Who this pleased I am not really sure but I don't think it would work very well for a mainstream audience in 2014. I'm a dummy for watching such trash but sometimes I just want 90 minutes of Made-for-TV fluff. Poor Corbin Bernsen. He's so much better than this. I pretty much couldn't have been more bored.3.9 / 10 stars--Zoooma, a Kat Pirate Screener

I found this movie completely pointless. True - there were one or two beautiful and moving scenes, for instance the wedding scene and the funeral scene. But they were not connected, somehow. There was no real story. Although the movie is called "full circle", you have to stretch the expression very far to see anything like that in this movie.What should the theme of this movie be? Rape? Mothers who let their children down because of their new loves? Career women? Crime? Losing a friend to death? It is all very muddled. And the very abrupt ending seems just thrown in, to end it all with some chance wish fulfillment for women... very stupid.

It is sad that the main character is the least likeable. Her supporting cast is full of wonderful veterans like Erika Slezak, Corbin Bernsen, and the always terrific Reed Diamond, but they are underused. Reed Diamond is just amazing, I was so hoping that the story could just center around his character, who was far more multi-dimensional and interesting than the banal and insipid lead.

Narrated by the main character, Donna, this movie is about her life. From a traumatic moment as a college student to the distance between her mother and herself. The story of her best friend, Harry and his life. A flirtation with Harry's father to falling in love with a man whose separated from his wife. Her career as a successful prosecutor to the moment when she truly falls in love the way she needed too. The acting was mediocre. It's unfortunate that the movie spent time on areas that are irrelevant and skipped over the areas that needed more exploration. Danielle Steel's novels are usually represented better.
