However, instead of making the expected public appearance, the cast of Galaxy Quest find themselves in outer space on an exact replica of their spaceship from the television series, except for one major difference- this spaceship is real. Somehow, a race of beings known as the Thermian have confused the Galaxy Quest television broadcasts with reality, thus having recreated all of the show s technology for its troop of space heroes. Of course, even non-Trekkies will appreciate the film s goofy humor. Image quality on the DVD is absolutely first rate. Everything is sharp, crystal clear and highly detailed.
Colors are vibrant and the flesh tones are very appealing.
There are no signs of chroma noise or bleeding, even amongst the most intense hues. Blacks are faithfully rendered, plus the image boast excellent shadow detail and very even contrast. This smartly authored DVD utilizes dual layers to keep digital compression artifacts from becoming noticeable. The Dolby Digital 5.1 channel soundtrack has a solid mix that delivers crisp, intelligible dialogue and deep, full bass. Sound effects are well placed, with the forward soundstage being more aggressively utilized than the rear.
