Summary: More fun than a barrel full of Vulcans!
Review: Galaxy Quest was the most fun I have had watching a movie in a long time. My wife also enjoyed it and she is not a sci-fi fan. That is the point with this movie. You don't have to like science fiction, although it does help with some of the more subtle references.Tim Allen plays the actor playing Commander Taggert with ease, moving from a self-centered washout to genuine hero in the span of less than two hours. Alan Rickman delivers his gems of dialogue with gusto - much as he did in Die Hard. And Sigourney Weaver is fun to watch as Gwen Demarco who has "only one job on this ship. It's stupid, but I'm going to do it." The anamorphic widescreen is crystal clear and the special effects in the film are better than some I have seen in more "serious" sci-fi films. The Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack is fun and a decent demo for your sound system. The disk includes some nice extra features. A featurette on the making of the film shows that the set of Galaxy Quest was probably as much fun to be on as the movie is to watch. And a series of deleted scenes are included, some of which might have made decent additions to the final film. All-in-all a very satisfying experience and another nice value from Dreamworks.

Summary: SciFi Laughs at Itself
Review: I expected a few laughs from Galaxy Quest, but was pleasantly entertained beyond what I thought this film would do for me. There's many humorous references to Star Trek, but beyond that I enjoyed the clever integration of dry wit, 70s-style SciFi camp, and moments of wackyness. For instance, the Thermian's mannerisms seem clearly inspired by Andy Kaufman, with a little Al Gore stiffness thrown in. A wonderfully silly movie that I don't hesitate to recommend.

Summary: "By Gapthar's hammer...what a savings."
Review: The best comedy to come out of Hollywood since "Ghostbusters"! I'm sure the writers had a blast putting this script together and the actors enjoyed acting it. After seeing it in the theater, I knew I would be buying it. The making of portion, though brief, is very interesting and it is fun to get a behind the scenes look at the movie. The Menu's are attractive and very user friendly. You can't miss with this DVD. It will keep you laughing for years to come. Buy it! Buy it now!

Summary: The best Star Trek film lately!
Review: I went to the theather believing that I was going to see a parody-comedy based on Star Trek, but instead I saw a very good film that was rather like a kind of homage to the series, this film in the end results to be a good sci-fi movie. Rent it or buy it you won't regret it. As a bonus this movie includes a track in Thermian language, perhaps they should have included a Klingon track too :)

Summary: Surprisingly well done & truly funny
Review: I went in expecting this move to be more of a farce than funny and can honestly tell you I was more than surprised. The special effects were first rate for a comedy and the humor was outstanding for a sci fi movie. A great all around effort, particularly by Tim Allen and Tony Shaloub.

Summary: Funny and Action-Packed All in One
Review: This movie is really cool. If you can get past a few stupid parts (c'mon, every movie like this has got 'em) then you will really enjoy it. Tim Allen is perfect as the ego maniac ex-TV star of a cancelled sci-fi series (a la Star Trek) who really does get to go "where no man has gone before". The humor is good, although there are a lot of subtle in-jokes that sci-fi fans won't pick up on. Still, it is very funny. The most interesting thing about this film is that the writers were able to actually craft an interesting adventure plot around the satirical humor. Even the special effects are solid and impressive. This is quite an accomplishment for a comedy-based sci-fi film. Sit back and enjoy a fun and exciting adventure that the whole family will love!

Summary: Perfect! George Lucas should have seen this first
Review: Galaxy Quest works on so many levels, it's a pity George Lucas didn't see it before he filmed Phantom Menace. No matter what you want, GQ delivers -- as a witty Star Trek spoof, as a sci-fi adventure, as a comedy, as summer escape, as an old fashioned salute to ordinary guys-turned-heroes. This movie draws on all the cliches, and yet manages to give you fresh, clean entertainment, hitting a rare sweet spot of warmth and intelligence. Sound familiar? It should: the original Star Wars had many of those same qualities, albeit on a grander scale. In its own unassuming way, Galaxy Quest (not Phantom Menace) is actually the true heir to the modern sci fi tradition. P.S.: yes, Tim Allen really can act.

Summary: Kirk Beware
Review: Galaxy Quest has topped all expectations for a great parady. And thats what it is. From Tim Allens character showboating to the unbelievable "odds against us" flow that moves through the film at breakneck speed. If Shatner and the rest of the crew from Star Trek don't get a good belly laugh out of this film, it will be because it hits too close to home. I know that my children and I did. Great job to the folks at Dream Works. You've done it again.
