While in hyperspace, some of the fighters from B-5 find a huge ship that has been abandoned and lost there for who knows how long. It's obviously from a very advanced civilization--something way in excess of human technology. In addition, the ship is HUGE--so big that the jump-gates must be modified to allow it to pass through in one piece. Despite this being a super-important find, in the end it turns out that they have brought something back that was best left alone! There was one particular scene I loved and one I really hated from this movie. I really liked the scene with Zack on the elevator with Lyta--his pouring his heart out to her made a lot of sense, as in the regular series it was obvious he felt something but it never was pursued. How they handled this was pretty funny and clever. What I really disliked was the nuclear detonation scene. It APPEARED as if Sheridan detonated a nuke in pretty close proximity to him in space and he was only wearing a space suit--yet seemed to suffer no ill-effects!!! Come off it--this just made no sense, even if Sheridan IS "the chosen one".I am such a huge Babylon 5 fan that I have watched everything--all five seasons (even the poor final one), the spin-off series (CRUSADE) and the made for TV movies. So for freaks like me, this is a must-see movie. But I also realize that I am a freak and many more casual viewers will not necessarily NEED to see everything B-5. If this is the case, then this is definitely one of the more expendable Babylon 5 productions. That's because what occurs in this made for TV movie has no impact of the episodes of the show, nor is it alluded to in any way. Plus, oddly, the movie is missing some of the important character from the series--Garibaldi, Londo and G'Kar. And finally, the movie itself isn't super-exciting--watchable and mildly interesting, yes. A must-see, no.

This IS the worst of the Babylon 5 tv-movies. It is set during the fourth season, but this movie aired during the fifth season. The story is rather weak and the acting is just a little bit better. I agree that TNT may have had some hand in influencing the writing. On the positive side, the special effects were great but that's about it.

An interesting show, being slightly different than the normal series, in that it seems to be trying for a Lovecraftian theme, in the ancient all-powerful horrors from beyond space try to take over everything and kill all life. As in the series, great special effects, with the acting at the same good level.
