Final Frontiers

I am going to need to watch this again before I rate it. I remember liking it though.

A solid dystopian effort that could alienate those who don't appreciate the rather unique angle it takes.

A genre masterpiece that stands up against anything that followed it.

Too heavy on marines and bug-blasting combat, too light on suspense and storyline.

An attempt to recapture what was good about the first Alien, but it falls short of its progenitor.

They should really have stopped when the third failed to recapture the magic. Avoid like the plague.

Nothing groundbreaking, but the whole package is very well put together.

The compelling opening of one of the greatest science fiction television programs ever made.

An engaging look at the events that precipitated everyting that occurs in the series - limits its audience perhaps, but a great film.

An interesting treatment of evolution in an alien species and conflicting beliefs about death and spirituality - really.

A largely forgettable part of the B5 saga, unfortunately. It was missing too much of what made the series great.

Bridges the gap between B5 and is ill-fated successor, Crusade. Well worth a look.

A timely return to the world of Babylon 5, the classic haunted ship tale but this time in space.

It took me ages to see it, and despite all the hype I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to.

The only role I can say that I loved Robin Williams in - who knew he could do tragedy so well?

It might have been because I was sick when I watched it, but I really had no idea what was going on.

I found it too slow, far too slow, and was not interested in the ending when it came.

It's slow, it's old, and I didn't really like it all that much. I suppose in its time is was okay, but I was 2 then.

I spent most of the film waiting for something to happen, when it finally did I don't think it was worth it.

I really liked it. I have no idea how plausible it is, and I really don't care so much - it makes for a good story.

Overblown and largely uninteresting - unfortunately.

Good fun, some serious action, and a laugh or two at the future's expense.

A capable adaptation of a videogame; finally! The 1st-Person scene cracks me up.

Although it has not aged well, this is a capable adaptation of a great sci-fi novel.

Although it moves slowly, this is a great adaptation of a great novel which, to be fair, is pretty slow too.

It may just be me, but I find it boring and VERY slow.

An excellent dystopian story with the ratio of of suspense to action and a wonderful cast.

Descends into pure horror at times, but is still presents a fascinating 'what if' scenario.

Great fun thanks to some wonderful performances from the cast and some visionary filmmaking.

Another one I need to see again before I can rate it.

The concept just sounds really interesting and somewhat unique.

An entertaining take on a classic story with a bit of action, a bit of drama, and a few laughs along the way.

For something with so much promise, it is far too 'Hooray-USA' for me.

A great story, but unfortunately it is just lacking something, kind of like the recent War of the Worlds adaptation.

Probably Michael Bay's best film until Transformers. I really liked the idea - and the casting.

I seem to have something for films that come from graphic novels. It is hardly smart, but isn't all that bad.

Good idea...bad execution.

The impossible achieved...it actually got worse.

The most nonsensically convoluted ending I have ever endured - and I watch anime!

So much fun! I loved it when it came out, and it still stands up today.

There were so many interesting directions they could have taken with this...why then is it so bad?

A fascinating idea, but not handled as well as it could have been.

Awesome martial arts action and an interesting exploration of parallel universes - a win on both counts.

It has to be better than the sequel was, right?

It has been a while now since I have seen this version, but I remember it being good, if not great.

Cover yourself with mud! Watching this is kind of like watching bloodsport, but it is mindless fun.

If only so I know what happens in it, and can laugh at the reason for Alien vs Predator.

A dated and extremely violent late 80s science fiction film, but an iconic one.

The cancellation of 'Firefly' was a true television tragedy. This film proves the potential that the series had.
