However, unlike Spaceballs or Airplane 2, Galaxy Quest doesn't only mock the sci-fi genre, but itself as well. Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, and crew give inspired performances as the 1970s TV actors turned cosmic defenders. Even if you're not a Star Trek fan, you'll get more than just a chuckle or two from this one.
Interesting extras accompany the above average video quality and top-notch sound.
In the late 70's and early 80's the Galaxy Quest TV show made a four year run. When the show is cancelled at the end of that run however, the cast of actors are relegated to appearing at sci-fi conventions and store openings. Non-trekkies will still enjoy this movie, but hardcore convention going fans will probably find themselves watching it a lot more than once. From spacecraft flybys and minefield explosion to the deep bass footsteps of a rather ticked of rock creature, this soundtrack will put your receiver thru its paces. While there are only a few extras here, there are some rather interesting ones.
