As a movie, it's a bit flat and the plot reads like the summary for a Nintendo game. Her's sister gets kidnapped by the bad guys, and he gathers a ragtag team of adventurers to save them. A retired general, a reformed bad guy, a telepath, a kid (not as annoying as Wesley), and some woman whose purpose is to take up space on the bridge. The movie can't match StarWars for effects, but it's marginally better than Episode 1 and Episode 2.As a TV Pilot (which it is), it's very similar to Andromeda, with a civilization thrown in chaos, and the heroes having to restore civilization to save the galaxy. It's a 70s type space opera with improved effects and better set design. While it had the same potential but the "To Be Continued" type ending can lead you with a bad taste in your mouth if you're not ready for it. I was somewhat saddened to find out that there was no series, so the entire movie was a setup for an ending that will never be made.

A "to be continued movie...not continued". This best describes my over all feeling of disappointment with this TV pilot. Fans of Rod Taylor (I didn't know he was an Aussie!) will enjoy seeing the 70 something actor going through his paces (in an Aussie accent) in this predictable scifi film. The film reminds me of Gene Rodenberry's "Andromeda" (Long lost ship vehicle). Some good performaces... but as this was only a pilot be forewarned that the film only serves as a vehicle for future stories of which there were none.

I would like to make clear that it is very hard for a science fiction movie to dissapoint me but this one most certainly does. Although the box doesnt make it clear, this movie was designed to set the scene for a television series. The acting is below average and the plot is completely unorriginal. The opening scenes see a simple man loose his younger sister who happens to be a genius and then vowes to find her. There's nothing here you havent seen before and the ending might as well say "To Be Continued....". I dont recommend this movie to anyone who likes the science fiction genre.

this is an excellent movie and i would like to see it turned in to a tv series
