Summary: Jettison This Movie
Review: Yuck! I can still taste this movie. Hollywood is still at it: putting all the budget into special effects, and nothing into a decent script. I could've written a better script while taking using the restroom. Now, why did I watch this thing? Well, Sigourney was looking pretttty cheeeeeky in those commercials. And the special effects looked impressive. As for Tim Allen, I never much cared for him; matter of fact, he's not even talented enough for public-access TV. So, looking at Sigourney and the special effects, I sat down eagerly for this movie. Then boredom went through me like a catheter. And later pity. First self-pity, then pity for the poor actor who played the villain in Die Hard; and here he is playing third string in this noxious bit of cow-fodder. The only other merit this movie has is as a cure for insomnia. Boredom, they name is Galaxy Quest.

Summary: It's a great movie.
Review: It isn't like hilarious funny, but it is pretty amusing. It's about a bunch of actors that do a space show whose broadcast is picked up in outer space. The aliens thought it was non-frictional and came to Tim Allen for help. He got the whole casting crew to help and they went into outer space. There's lots of neat things that happened. One of the funny things is that the space ship is modeled exactly after the one in the show. You'll know how that is funny when you watch the movie. That's all I saying. Watch it for yourself.

Summary: You will be avenged ...
Review: I watched this movie four times straight through on the flight from Singapore to San Fransisco and back (it's a 22-hours each way - you gotta do SOMETHING!). I bought a copy the minute I got off the plane, and I've been watching it off and on ever since. This one's definitely a keeper, folks, though it helps if you're a Star Trek fan with a sense of humour. I wish I'd waited for the DVD to come out! Maybe I could smuggle it in without the wife noticing ... Oh yeah, it's got Tim Allen and Sigourney Weaver! What more do you need to know?

Summary: wonderful parody
Review: I purchased a copy for our kids, hoping it wouldn't be too silly, or politically correct. Granted, I don't expect much from the cultural morass that eminates from Hollywood, but "Galaxy Quest" is a gem. My favorable opinion may be influenced by long familiarity with the movie's alter ego "Star Trek" (and its conventions), on which GQ is obviously based -- although don't tell Paramount's executives that. You don't have to be a Trekkie to enjoy it, but it doesn't hurt. (However, the cute drydock departure is designed to appeal to those who remember ST-TMP.) The technobabel, e.g., "beryllium balls" (in lieu of "dilithium crystals"), was delightful. (It also gave me the excuse to pull out a periodical table for the kids. I pointed out that the GQ crew should have washed their hands after retrieving the ball since that metal is toxic.) Unlike so many sci-fi films in which a feeble or incoherent plot is plastered by gee-whiz optics ("Lost in Space" and the "Jurassic Park" movies come to mind), GQ has a nicely arranged theme (much like "Back to the Future") in which, once disbelief is suspended on physical premises, the story proceeds without being disrupted by internal contradictions or leftist sermonizing. GQ is humorous without being needlessly slapstick, and although (or maybe because) it's deliberately camp, the plot holds together quite nicely. The acting is also very appropriate for the story. The effects are credible, but don't overwhelm the characters or the story. Real nice job.

Summary: Funniest film of 99
Review: As a ravenous Trekker and fanatical SF fan, I was dubious about a spoof, however well-written. I was stupid. This is the funniest movie to be churned out of Hollywood in recent years--and it's only PG! "Galaxy Quest" was a popular cult SF show years ago, but now the stars do little but appear at conventions and sign autographs. Delightfully Shatnerian Jason Nesmith (Tim Allen) is approached by perpetually smiling aliens the Thermians, who believe that the adventures of the "Protector"'s crew are recorded real adventures. They ask him to help them defeat the hideous insectoid General Sarris--in a real, constructed starship "Protector." Thrilled out of his pants, Nesmith brings along his initially unwilling friends to save the galaxy! Tim Allen shows that he's an excellent actor OUTSIDE of sitcoms, so like Shatner that it's simply uncanny. The voice, the delivery of lines, even the rather inflated ego are all there. Sigourney Weaver plays Gwen DeMarco, who is frustrated both by her small role on the show and the fact that all interviewers have ever asked her was about her bust size. A combination Counselor Troi/ Lieutenant Uhura, she basically repeats what the computer says. She explodes in frustration at one point: "I have one job on this ship--it's stupid, but I'm gonna do it, okay! " Alan Rickman wears an alien head as Alexander Dane, a cranky actor who hates always being second fiddle and resents Allen and his role throughout the movie. Tony Shalhoub drifts innocuously through the movie, paying only marginal attention to the amazing events around him. Daryl Mitchell plays a grown-up Wesley Crusher character, who was piloting the ship at the age of ten. Sam Rockwell plays a truly unique role--he was a redshirt who got killed on the alien planet of Episode 81, and now believes that he's going to die because his character doesn't have a name. Enrico Colantoni plays the leader of the Thermians, whose vacant grin and singsong speech patterns steal all his scenes... "Weeeeee... need your help." There are a million funny moments and in-jokes that Trekkers will notice: The ship scraping against spacedock, Nesmith rolling around in preparation for action, Guy freaking out because he's a redshirt and he's doomed to die, Nesmith losing his shirt during a fight to display his manly chest, Gwen yelling because of her small role, ridiculous obstacles in the bowels of the ship, and so on. Perhaps the funniest part of it all is the Thermians, who have formed their culture around the adventures and friendships of the Galaxy Quest crew. Wouldn't it be great if that were true?

Summary: Very enjoyable
Review: This was a very enjoyable "poke" at the whole Trekkie phenomenon. I wonder how William Shatner would handle himself if he were transported to another galaxy. Allen is surprisingly good. Weaver is not only beautiful but hilarious. The real show stealer, for me, was Alan Rickman. He is consistently one of the best actors working today. Enjoy this one. Try not to be overly critical of the thin spots, because the vehicle works quite well on the whole. I'm not sure if a sequel is warrented, but I guess they've earned the right to make one.

Summary: What a tripped up dork retard of a movie - but sure is good!
Review: I saw this just the other week at my college, in the video lounge. When it began to play, the woman in front of me said aloud "this is horrible" but followed with a laugh. I think I understood her. It's just a kinda stupid-like comedy that's actually a good movie. I think it's more to amuse than be a great storyline though. My favorite line, Guy - "Oooh, that's not right!"
