Customer Reviews of Battlestar Galactica - The Feature Film (Widescreen Edition)
Fantastic For Television Battlestar Galactica was the coolest thing when it aired on ABC back in 1978. Universal Studios and Glen Larson put together, very quickly, a fantastic premise for a good character driven series.
They developed their own language, letters and even swearing. The stars at the time were unknown (Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict) with a few surprises ' like Lorne Green leading the 'Bonanza' in space and John Colicos (from General Hospital fame) leading the enemies ' the Cylons!
For the time, the special effects were matched only to that of Star Wars (which came out the year before) and the costumes and props where cleverly done. There is even talk of a revival movie for television or even a feature have been around for a while ' but nothing yet. Richard Hatch himself wants to be involved.
The series failed in its later episodes'it started playing with the characters and obviously losing its budget. They tried to revive it with Barry Van Dyke in a series called Galactica 1980 ' with flying motorcycles ' but that didn't work either.
I loved this pilot episode and the DVD is one certainly to own. I wish it had commentary by cast and crew. I liked it.
One of the Best Sci-Fi Films Ever...
It may have been made in an attempt to cash in on the success of "STAR WARS", but "BATTLESTAR GALACTICA" has withstood the test of time to become one of the best sci-fi films ever made. The story is gripping and, at times, funny. The cast, especially the leads (Richard Hatch, Dirk Benedict, and Lorne Greene) are all perfect in their roles. The effects, while somewhat dated, are still great to look at. Who can forget the awesome destruction of Caprica? The awesome ships and costumes? The Cylons? All of these elements, and many more, make this one awesome film to behold. A must see for any serious fan of science fiction. Don't listen to those who say that this is nothing but a "STAR WARS" ripoff. They don't know what they are missing! Do yourself a favor-BUY THIS DVD TODAY! Also, there is currently underway an effort to get "BATTLETAR GALACTICA" brought back as a new series or movie. With your help, we can see that this great show finally gets to realize its full potential.
FUN BUT...
ONCE YOU GET THIS MOVIE YOU MAY WANT THE WHOLE EPIC SERIES. IT'S AVAILABLE IN AN EXCELLENT SET. I LOVED THIS MOVIE AND IT REMINDED ME OF HOW MUCH I MISSED THE SHOW...SO THEN I BOUGHT THAT TOO!
