Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential videoYou don't have to be a Star Trek fan to enjoy Galaxy Quest, but it certainly helps. A knowingly affectionate tribute to Trek and any other science fiction TV series of the 1960s and beyond, this crowd-pleasing comedy offers in-jokes at warp speed, hitting the bull's-eye for anyone who knows that (1) the starship captain always removes his shirt to display his manly physique; (2) any crew member not in the regular cast is dead meat; and (3) the heroes always stop the doomsday clock with one second to spare. So it is with Commander Taggart (Tim Allen) and the stalwart crew of the NSEA Protector, whose intergalactic exploits on TV have now been reduced to a dreary cycle of fan conventions and promotional appearances. That's when the Thermians arrive, begging to be saved from Sarris, the reptilian villain who threatens to destroy their home planet.

Can actors rise to the challenge and play their roles for real? The Thermians are counting on it, having studied the 'historical documents' of the Galaxy Quest TV show, and their hero worship (not to mention their taste for Monte Cristo sandwiches) is ultimately proven worthy, with the help of some Galaxy geeks on planet Earth. And while Galaxy Quest serves up great special effects and impressive Stan Winston creatures, director Dean Parisot (Home Fries) is never condescending, lending warm acceptance to this gentle send-up of sci-fi TV and the phenomenon of fandom. Best of all is the splendid cast, including Sigourney Weaver as buxom blonde Gwen DeMarco; Alan Rickman as frustrated thespian Alexander Dane; Tony Shalhoub as dimwit Fred Kwan; Daryl Mitchell as former child-star Tommy Webber; and Enrico Colantoni as Thermian leader Mathesar, whose sing-song voice is a comedic coup de grâce. --Jeff Shannon

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Silly but fun!
One of those stupid silly movies that just gives you some laughs at it's corniness. One of my favorites



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic Cheese
From concept to execution, this film is a knock out comedy. You don't have to be a space geek to enjoy this one. Plus, Sigourney Weaver looks great as a blond. Galaxy quest works because of the casting. This movie could have gone either way, but I think it's the cast that makes this work. Highly recommended.






Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Pure fun!
This movie is truly brilliant. As a life long Star Trek fan and attendee of sci-fi conventions, the reason this movie is so brilliant is because it's TRUE. From the weary actors having to bear the curse of Eternal Type Casting, the goofiness of devoted fans, the chore or listening to the same fan boy stories and the obnoxious male lead, I never stopped laughing. Alan Rickman is perfect in his role as the frustrated serious actor reduced to wearing an alien head. The casting of the ultimate Sci Fi female icon, Sigourney Weaver, is priceless. She really embraces her inner bimbo and has fun. Tim Allen as a Shatner-esque is a win!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Galaxy Quest
The item was advertised to have some scratches on it but it's appearance was perfect and I enjoy each performance.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Lots of Fun
This is a fun film especially if you have any knowledge of the whole Trekkie movement and the show itself. Quite clever.

Once again, anything Apple can make, the enterprising Dev Team can break: the brand-new firmware 2.2 has been jailbroken. QuickPwn should take care of everything, unless you're one of those unfortunate owners of the second-generation iPod touch, in which case you're out of luck at the moment. But everything else seems to be running fine—anybody here broken the new firmware yet? Let us know in the comments. [iPhone Dev, thanks Mehmet!]
