Starship 'Osiris'

Hello, saw this film and do not like it so much. Was a cheap film with cheap performance. The story is quite OK, but it seemed a bit strange to me.

Nice is, that one antagonist is not an one dimensional as it seems to be always.

Only the CGI was OK for me and the sister seemed very nice, she is so smart; love it.

But this film has no real ending for me. Because the film is short it looks, that they ran out of money.

Looks like a part 2 to come, but there is none ...

this is an excellent movie and i would like to see it turned in to a tv series

Ended up watching it all and wanted to see more and then I learned that...that's it! Which was too bad!

To be an 90s sci fi failed b tv movie series this was actually really good. And way better the like 99% of modern sci fi movies!

It had great visuals, the scenes props were great and man did the engineers and the soul monster look great!

Acting was also good for the most part and the characters enjoyable and I liked the warlord for having a heart but still a warlord.

Like said, too bad there wasn't more. This could have been an interesting trilogy.

Like many potentially great sci-fi flicks THE WARLORD suffers from many problems caused by its starvation budget. Though it was shot for peanuts in 1996 as a t-v pilot on the Paramount back lot -- and looks it-- it nevertheless has a lot to recommend it. It is worth watching if only to see veteran Rod Taylor back in harness and to see yet another brilliant performance by multi-talented teen Elisabeth Harnois. (I can't understand by Hollywood doesn't recognize this youngster's extraordinary talents. She should have been a super star long ago.) The cast does an excellent job with a weak script and Joe Dante's direction is flawless. I found THE WARLORD to be an entertaining two hours,infinitely better than much of the dreck that is passing as excellent cinema in these strange days.

I felt the plot was only for half of a movie. There was no "closure" at the end. The plot also borrowed many ideas from Star Trek. The beam transporter; the Engineers who seemed to be a combination of the Vulcans and the Borg.
