Space Command

Good movies & TV shows must always start with a good story with strong characters. Sadly, this show lacks both of those.

Many series always try to introduce as much of its "universe" into the pilot episode, and this show is no different, but this time could have been better used giving the plot some important: existence.

Some of the characters seem interesting, surrounded by a "I wonder what happens next" aura, but not enough and not tied together in any form.

Although not trying to hammer too heavily on the show, but the special effects are both terrible (early 90's TV-style, rendered on a home computer) and slightly confusing (I don't think the actors were told what the effects would be, nor how to react).

Finally, how did these classic and well-respected actors get attached to this show? Was there some sort of blackmail involved, a professional deception, or possibly deals to avoid jail time due to tax evasion? This is very unclear, as the performances are flat, confused, and disjointed (with the exception of Robert Picardo, who delivers a heartfelt dialogue...although it also seems unattached to whatever passes for a plot).

I really did. It had several of my favorite actors from babylon 5 and robert picardo from stargate. I was glad to see them back as a group. They had worked so well together in the past. I really wanted to like this. I failed. The acting was wooden or overly melodramatic. How can it be both? Somehow they managed. Special effects outta the 60s. Many shots were visibly poorly blue-screened. And ethan macdowell as the wunderkind youngest captain in the fleet. He shore is a purdy boy. And his uniform(costume) with the pecs and sixpack? Sheeeesh. But looks can only carry a show so far, and in his case that is not far at all. Stereotropes galore.

Two words: not good. Make that three words: painfully not good. Avoid.

Very good, we enjoyed watching it! The atmosphere and the low budget and acting gave it the good old feel of 70s Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica etc.

For anyone who wants to knock the production and put it down, let's see you do better let alone get your movie published!

It looks worse than a Fan made pilot. Bad BAD early 2000's CGI, probably a free app from Google Store. All the out of work actors should have been embarrassed. The props were comical. Acting...bad....

It does not help that you bill this as " the greatest Star Trek you're not watching." Not even close. Acting, special effects, script, photography, MUSIC! It's ALL sub par. I rate it a 2 out of 10. I have no wish to see any more. I'm sorry. Im just being honest. Low budget for sure.
