Galaxy Quest , a review by Dragonfire

Galaxy Quest My Thoughts I love this movie and was in the mood to see it again.  I have seen some of the Star Trek tv shows and movies, so I know a little about the characters, but I don't know everything.  I have heard of the conventions that fans have.  I thought that aspect of the movie, with how ...obsessed some of the fans were, is very realistic.  It is clear to me, even with my limited Trek knowledge, that Galaxy Quest is intended to be a show like Star Trek, except the show never got turned into a series of movies.  The cast is all stuck being associated with these roles and some of them, like Alexander, hate that.  The plot is like Three Amigos with the aliens believing that the episodes of the tv show are historical documents and the actors are a real crew of a space ship that has deal with all sort of bad aliens.  Even though the plot is similar to the earlier movie, there is enough different for the movie to be really fun and entertaining.  The story is developed enough to be interesting and entertaining.  So much that happens in really funny.   The characters really make the movie and the acting is wonderful.  I love Alan Rickman in his part of a classically trained actor who feels trapped by being associated with this role.  Tony Shalhoub is really good as Fred.  He is so calm when the others are freaking out, like after they have been transported onto the ship or after their first encounter with Seris when they are fleeing and the ship is in such bad shape..there's Fred all calm telling Jason that the ship can't take it.  There is just so much that I enjoy about this movie. I loved this one when I first saw it and I still feel the same way.  It is really fun and entertaining and the cast is great in their roles. I did post a review on Epinions a few years ago.

My Thoughts:

I remember when I first saw this. It was another version, but still close. I saw it at school never did finish it.

I always did like to see this. Maybe around Christmas time. I also always like a good musical, but I suppose my father would disagree on the matter. One thing I don't like it how many songs. Like I said, I love it being a musical, and I LOVE "Hard Knock Life", "Easy Street" and "Little Girls", so my question is.....are the rest really nessicary? Ok, yeah, I know the answer to that: part of the magic, blah blah blah. I may like music, but you get tired after a little while.

Still, it was very enjoyable.
