A bunch of has been actors from a show that was canceled long ago are still popular among their fan base and are called upon to appear at conventions and ribbon cuttings. Sound Familiar? Well this movie is Tim Allan's (kinda) spoof of the popular television series Star Trek. Things change when a group of real aliens approach "Captain Jason Nesmith" and ask him to come and help save their planet. The crew find themselves suddenly off on another adventure that may just change their lives forever, or it may kill them. This is one of Tim Allen's best movies, it is funny (at times hiliarious) and it is very entertaining. The movie also stars: Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, Sam Rockwell, Daryl Mitchell and Enrico Colantoni Give this one 5 of 5 stars. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend you do.Read full review
Galaxy Quest is a touching film for Start Trek fans. At first glance it seems like it would be a bad comedy poking fun at Trekkies. Nothing could be further from the truth of this film. It's actually the first respectful film I've seen showing the depth of what TNG and others can have in some of our lives. While there is humor, lot's of it, it is spot on and even insightful. The people who made Galaxy Quest aren't making fun of Star Trek fans, they are giving them more of what they love and saying or the first time, storytelling can matter and we know what it's meant to you. Tim Allen is terrific and nearly worth watching the whole film just for him but the others do their parts wonderfully too. Everything is over-the-top but not. This kind of story telling is colorful with weird aliens, spaceships and explosions, that's the honest nature of it. Galaxy Quest does it so well it warmed my heart and even answered some questions. Finally respect for science fiction fans, not ridicule. There is love and joy humor and honor in the film. The Blu-ray version is very bright with wonderful colors and sound. Very glad to have gotten it and that I did not make the mistake of judging this film by it's cover. If you are a Start Trek fan, TNG perhaps, this film will have a place in your home. I say home and not collection because watching this film is, for a fan of the genre, like coming home.Read full review
