BEST TELEVISION SERIES EVER

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 1, 2019

Verified Purchase

As a fan of the original Battlestar Galactica, when the revamped miniseries first aired, I refused to watch. But when it was picked up for a first season, I bit the bullet and watched the miniseries. I was hooked instantly. In my opinion, Battlestar Galactica is the best television series in television history. Television was made for this series.

While Battlestar Galactica is clearly science fiction (and incorporates many elements from Greek Mythology), it is the human drama that is most compelling. That is not to dismiss the dramatic element of the last (approximately) 50,000 human survivors attempting to flee the Cylons and find a new home. In fact, the interactions between humans and Cylons provide some of the best “human drama” of the series.

I cannot recommend this series highly enough, but you should be aware that there is swearing, violence, and fairly graphic sex.

Also, the show deteriorated significantly towards the end when the showrunners decided that the struggling remnants of mankind should indeed find Earth and realized that they should wrap up all loose ends. Unfortunately, the writers had created some conundrums they could not solve. For example, Gaius Baltar and Six were in each other’s heads. How? Why? And don’t even get me started on how Kara Thrace died but lived with no real explanation given. Nevertheless, while the ending was surprisingly unsatisfactory, the show overall remains the best.

Decent plot, gorgeous FX, and an intriguing insight into Season 4

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 12, 2007

Verified Purchase

"Razor" is a satisfying addition to Battlestar Galactica in what is more a couple extra episodes from Season 2 than a standalone movie. 1 star off for a slightly plodding second plot line and a half star off for an incomplete set of extras on the DVD leaves 3.5 stars, which I round up to 4 stars for both getting to see more of Michelle Forbes as Admiral Cain and one DVD-only scene that gives hints about Season 4.

Razor combines past and present storylines of the Pegasus through focusing on a new character, Pegasus deck officer Kendra Shaw, and how her experiences in the past storyline transformed her into the unfeeling tool of the title that Cain believes is the ideal squared away leader. The past storyline is the better of the two, with the backfill of what happened to the Pegasus until it met up with Galactica providing some riveting scenes. While generally the best forty minutes of the show since Exodus II thanks to a couple of intriguing additions like the background of Gina and Cain, by only developing Fisk's drunken stories and largely neglecting character development outside of Shaw, the writers don't quite get this up to the superb quality of the rest of the Pegasus story arc.

The present storyline is less compelling, set in between "Captain's Hand" and "Lay Down Your Burdens" as Apollo runs his first mission as commander of the Pegasus with some help from his father and Starbuck. Once "Razor" begins focusing on this latter storyline in the second hour things begin to drag somewhat; on the commentary, Ron Moore explains that a good slug of the second plotline was his brainchild for the sake of continuity, and while probably easier to follow than the original script it feels somewhat like the padding it is.

Despite that, Razor is still fun stuff. The season 2 version of Starbuck is a lot more enjoyable to watch, and the interactions between Apollo, Shaw and her make one hope that the writers remember her importance for the final season. Another plus is Michelle Forbes' superb performance, which makes you wish they could somehow bring Cain back. This also has the best special effects of the entire series; having seen them in a theater as well as the DVD, they're just eyepopping. FX wiz Gary Hutzel got a real budget for once and Ron Moore admits that some of his CGI work actually drove parts of the plot rather than the reverse. Considering Moore once said the original Pegasus sets were limited to a corridor, a multi-purpose utility room, the CIC, and Cain's quarters, props to him and his effects guys for figuring out how to make things work around mostly those locations. The DVD is worth buying on this alone.

The majority of the new material is visually stunning but doesn't add much. The "favorite episode" feature reveals "33" as the choice of the wise, another brief feature reveals a bit about the production, Adama and Cain have "formulative experiences" during the first Cylon war (the former having already been shown in the webisodes), Shaw and Apollo have their own pre-war sequence, and Baltar and his dream Six make a brief appearance. None of this adds much to the characters or plot, and weirdly Moore and Taylor refer to some additional footage that didn't make it even into the deleted scenes category during a commentary that is good but essentially similar to the average podcast. Slightly disappointing.

However, what's truly compelling in the new material are the additional Cylon prophecies given to the hybrid, which both flesh that character out as more than "babbling" and provide some tantalizing insights into Season 4 well beyond the spoiler at the end of the movie. Taylor admits its inclusion may be a creation of the home video department, but it's the one must-watch bit of new material that makes the DVD worthwhile on its own. 4 stars.

General Note: AAAhhh, BATLLESTAR GALACTICA.......

I'm now 37. As a nine years old boy, I couldn't watch much Sci-Fi stuff. For back in those days, there were none to be seen on TV (the "STAR TREK Classic Series" was broadcasted in France only in the early 1980's! With a very funny "quebecois" speaking voiceover!).

So the exotic flavour of this new Sunday afternoon's "kind of "STAR WARS" show", was sweet. Space battles, alien(?) pyramids & robots on TV! In my living-room! In France! In the late 70's! That was sooooo frakkin' rare!!!
I even went to my town's theatre to see the 2 movies made for european exploitation: "Galactica, Le Film" & "Galactica, Les Cylons Attaquent".
So brilliant!

But the revisited version of this story seems much better to me. Less cheesy, less humorous, less colorful but more human, thrilling & much more realistic though very metaphysical.
Considering that this show, including the Pilot episode (directed by Michael "Queen of The Damned(Argh!)" Rymer (he did good since, especially in this very show), the 3 "pulse pounding" Seasons of the TV series, even the (very short) webisodes, is so exceptionally written, acted (James Callis, Dean Stockwell, Michael Hogan, Mary Mc Donnell rule!), directed, "SFXed" ¤, I've gladly tasted this new portion of the "Don D.Moore & Pals" Universe. Miam! More...!!!

Therefore, I was not surprised by the quality of this TV movie. But astounded again by this quality that the many creators of B.G. have: to bring things up...crescendo. And RAZOR is an exemple of that.
It melts into the general storyline and brings a very dense story, with numerous situations to resolve (or not).
Damn they got me again! I can't wait for Season Four. I'm gonna watch meself the whole show again ! Felgercarb (why is this word never mentionned in the new series ? Hun...? Whyyyyyyyy???)

"There must be a way out of here, says the joker to the thief. There's too much confusion, I can get no relief......."
"The music. Do you hear this music ? It's in the ship, it's in the frakkin ship !". See?

¤(note)[SFX for B.G. are done by the people who did conceive the "Firefly" SFX in Joss WHEDON's splendid (and cancelled by a *^§%-+* Fox executive) show! Read the comic books for more Firefly adventures!]

DVD Note: Though short on extra features (just like in the other "Battlestar Galactica" DVD releases) but containing Season 4 previews and a collection of "shortysodes" with the young Bill Adama(!), this one pancake is good in general.
Video is rather good, sound 5.1 is better. Nice cardboard cover with a velcro opening that reveals nice pictures of the show. Wow!

One of the best scifi TV show along with "FARCAPE" (but for opposite reasons!) & a few others.

Best regards,

Solid addition to the series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 27, 2008

Verified Purchase

Back in 2008, with the transmission of Battlestar Galactica's fourth season delayed and its full run interrupted by a nine-month-long break due to the Writer's Strike, the Sci-Fi Channel saw fit to deliver us an extra treat, namely a TV movie delving deeper into the show's backstory.

Razor takes place at the end of the second season, shortly after the events of the episode The Captain's Hand. Lee Adama is now commander of the battlestar Pegasus, but as an outsider he finds himself not entirely trusted by his new crew. Lee decides to appoint a former favourite of Admiral Cain's, Lt. Kendra Shaw, to the position of XO, in an attempt to 'build bridges' with his new subordinates. Interestingly, the plot doesn't dwell on this idea. We know the fate of the Pegasus and Lee's command of her from other episodes and seeing him do a 'winning the respect of the crew' plotline would have been redundant. Instead we see much of the story through Kendra's eyes. Lengthy flashbacks take us back to the day of the original Cylon attack on the Colonies and we see Kendra rising through the ranks and observing Cain's gradual moral erosion as the tensions of command take hold. A present day storyline, which is little more than a subplot, sees the Pegasus crew stumble across a bunch of obsolete Cylons from the First Cylon War and have to eliminate them.

Razor straddles two stools. On the one hand, it is a balls-to-the-wall action story with huge, epic CGI battle sequences and lots of emotional intensity which is designed to appeal to newcomers as well as established fans. On the other, it features a lot of fan-pleasing asides and references to the original series. This is a somewhat odd idea (going for newbies and hardcore fans at the same time) but just about works, with the new character of Kendra providing a worthwhile 'in' to this story and universe for new viewers but at the same time allowing established fans to see stuff they've wanted to see since the series began. Kudos for the writers for managing not to make a total hash of this.

The TV movie lives or dies on the performance of actress Stephanie Chaves-Jacobson as Kendra Shaw and thankfully she delivers a competent performance. She tended to mumble a fair bit, however, which resulted in much rewinding of scenes to make out what she was saying. The actress has a great rapport with Katee Sackhoff and Michelle Forbes, and in these scenes she is extremely good. The other actors are as trusty and reliable as ever, although some have very little screen-time (Athena and Tigh get a single scene each, President Roslin three short scenes and Dr. Baltar only briefly appears thanks to an extended scene only available on the DVD).

Overall, Razor (****) is an enjoyable slice of Battlestar Galactica. Some elements misfire a bit (the "By your command," moment, although amusing, totally breaks the fourth wall) and the resolution's dependence on yet more BSG mysticism is mildly exasperating, but overall the TV movie fulfils its remit of being both entertaining and restoring faith in the show after a patchy third year. I do think Razor works better if viewed chronologically (i.e., after The Captain's Hand in Season 2) than between Season 3 and 4 as originally aired, at which point it does feel a little more redundant.

The DVD edition is extended over the TV cut by some 15 minutes and features a lengthy flashback to the First Cylon War (complete with another huge battle sequence) as well as other new scenes, plus a writer and producer's commentary.

By your command

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 25, 2008

Verified Purchase

Okay people, newsflash. This film is included in the Season 4 boxset. Which was slightly galling to discover, though Amazon's price was very reasonable, but I now have two copies of this, when I only need one...

First things first. Old school cylons. They're still CGI, sadly, but the appearance of the Centurions just reminds you how great that design is. And they say by your command, which is ace. There's a fab mid-air battle between a Centurion and a young Bill Adama, which also is ace.

Okay, so what about the rest of the film. The story uses an officer who served on the Pegasus as its POV character, allowing the writers to flashback to when Admiral Cain was still alive and therefore give the excellent Michelle Forbes more work. The film gives some of the back story to how the Pegasus escaped the fate of the rest of the Battlestars and how they came to cage a No. 6 cylon. While this fills in the gaps, I think that we've already had this ground covered just fine by Season Two of the show, so it doesn't work quite as well for me, as the other parts of the film.

The other parts of the film involve a Cylon god, a hybrid from the period when Cylons were evolving from just machines to the flesh jobs that characterise the reboot series. Some of this is set at the end of the first Cylon war, when Bill Adama was still young. As I mentioned earlier, this involves some lovely action set pieces. It made me look forward to Caprica. The rest is set while Lee Adama is in charge of the Pegasus and involves a mission to rescue people kidnapped by the Cylon god. It's bonkersly sci-fi, like the episode in season 3 where Baltar is living on a base ship, and very good for it. It also features a couple of hints of where the show is going in the fourth season.

Also included are Razor webisodes.

Overall though this is as usual pretty topnotch stuff. It feels odd to take a step back when the show is currently heading for new waters, but the little additions to the mythology and the old school cylons make up for it.

The Best Science Fiction series ever! That's what I think. When I first heard they were re-doing the show, I couldn't wait... a minute. This series ended years ago, this is Amazon tapping me on the shoulder and saying, Hey, you forgot to rate this one al those years ago.' Well, if you don't have it yet, get it, and the rest of them. You will not be disappointed by your purchase... see, 2007... that's what... 7 years ago!

Oh...Cain had a heart in there somewhere after all.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 28, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is a great addition to the Battlestar Galactica universe. Set after Lee is promoted to captain of the Pegasus, the story jumps back to events as the Cylon war hit and Pegasus was caught in the middle. We're taken right into the action as Cain has to try and make quick decisions to save her crew. It's great to see the Admiral battle survival and we get to see how she becomes the woman that finally arrives at Galactica.

Meanwhile, there's another story thread running in the present that allows us to see our favourite characters; Adama, Lee, Starbuck etc.

If you haven't seen it already, I'd definitely recommend it.

Razor confusing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 4, 2013

Verified Purchase

Having seen much of the original(Lorne Greene) series in which the Pegasus featured under the Command of Admiral Kane, who incidently in the original series was male. I found this a bit confusing since it seemed that the current Admiral Kane was the daughter of the previous commander and she is as much a loose cannon as he was even to the point of commiting murder of civlians to get what she wanted. the continual leep backs in time didn't help matters either. That aside there was still plenty of action against the Cylons which is what the film is all about
