September Dawn, a review by EricSeptember Dawn Summary:My Thoughts: This is truly a wonderful movie. Because it tells the massacre of 120 people one would expect it to be done in Hollywood's way with lots of blood and "show off" special effects but the director in this case did a beautiful job at being moderate and making it look realistic. Every battle of killing scene was done in a way that made it look like that's it would have happened. Jon Voight's performance is extremly good and he makes is character truly credible. Filmography is also beautiful and the massacre scene it just unbelievable with a mix of normal speed ans slow motion, some parts of it with no sounds but music, others with full sounds. The music in that scene is also very beautiful and plays a huge part in making that scene beautiful. Anyone who liked movies like "The Last of the Mohicans" (Although this is much less violent) or "Open Range" will really enjoy "September Dawn". I defenitely recommend it.

Krawic (Rhamin), Kevin P. Stillwell (Moklor), Majel Barrett (Computer Voice (voice)) This is the second big P/T episode. Voyager must dump its warp core (I think this was the first time ever, that we actually saw the warp core eject from the ship on-screen in any Star Trek series). B'Elanna and Tom take a shuttle to get the core back, but are left stranded in environment suits with not much oxygen left. This leads to some heart-to-heart and a love confession by B'Elanna shortly before they would have died if Voyager hadn't shown up in the nick of time. Although I like this episode and the P/T moments, it was much too sudden. They slowly built up the relationship during season three, and in the first episode in season 4 with P/T content they suddenly get together. Originally it was planned to continue slowly building up that relationship in season 4, but when Roxann Dawson (B'Elanna) became pregnant in real life, they decided to get Tom and B'Elanna together before the actress started showing. P/T moments: About half of the episode, but the most important is of course the last scene. Rating: ![]() (From Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews on September 30th, 2009) |
