Battlestar Galactica - The Miniseries

Pros: lots of action, excellent soundtrack and effects, excellent storylines, superb cast

Cons: use of sexual situations, language, and use of paganistic religion may put off some

The Bottom Line: BSG grows up and gives us one heck of a ride. Strap yourself in and prepare for liftoff.

Review: ~~~~The premise~~~ Though it lasted only a single season in the late 1970’s, the original Battlestar Galactica remained a cult favourite across the following years, with repeats, lunchboxes, T-shirts, and more. It was therefore with great trepidation ...

Pros: Character driven, serial story line, fantastic effects, really makes you think.

Cons: Stories my resemble real world events that are disturbing.

Review: I watched the original Battlestar Galactica and enjoyed it. However, the series has been reborn and cast into a fantastic new look into the lives and struggles portrayed in this classic saga. Pitting a new breed of Cylons that now act and appear so ...

Pros: acting, effects, story

Cons: a couple of huge changes hard to swallow for fans of the original series

The Bottom Line: A great start to a series that has garnered praise across the board.

Review: I'll be showing my age here, but the Or iginal Battlestar Galactica was probably my favorite television show ever, short-lived as it was. When the new series was announced I was skeptical. There had been noises made on ...

Pros: good acting and effects, interesting story

Cons: hard to follow at first, extremely depressing

The Bottom Line: Depressing but engaging, it's probably worth a look for most sci-fi fans.

Review: I grew up watching Star Trek, both the original series and the Next Generation, and later Star Wars, so I consider myself a pretty solid science fiction fan, but I don't get the SciFi network, so there are a lot of science fiction shows out ...

Pros: A very well done homage to the original while breaking away

Cons: NA

Review: Well, many of us didn't expect much from the new Battlestar Galactica. This is because we don't expect a lot from the sci-fi channel. We were wrong, The new Battlestar Galactica blows away the original series by a mile! And, I'm a guy who had the ...
