Starship One - the most powerful warship in the Federation, capable of destroying entire worlds. When the order is given to destroy the Earth, Flight Lieutenant John Worthy mutineers Starship One and takes on the might of the Federation. before you read this just Know I adore all things sci-fi, however here I must draw a line<br/><br/>When I first picked up this movie my first reaction was "Well this might be half interesting, but I'll give it a go" Never have I been so wrong. After the first 15 minutes I was left sitting there wondering how any of what I was watching won any awards at all.<br/><br/>After enduring the entirety of the film I was left wondering why a fan flick made it onto DVD. The CGI wasn't half bad though, some rather nice cut-scenes as well however the inescapable fact remains. This was a horrible film with very little plot.<br/><br/>I can see what they were going for though, a federation which is like a mash-up between Firefly & Starship Troopers coupled with ships modeled after X-Wings, Wraith cruisers crossed with Star Trek federation type ships with a little Battle Star Galactica thrown in & a bad guy that resembled a religious version of Palpatine. It just screams FAN MADE MOVIE, honestly if I had of encountered it on a fan flick site I would have given it a much higher and glowing review because for a fan made movie I would give it a solid 7/10 however this is not confined to the sci-fi pages of the internet.<br/><br/>Albeit after the first half hour or so if you lower your standards enough and don't expect much from it, try easing yourself into it a bit it make for a mediocre time killer at best, although I would have rather just re-watched Firefly or Starship Troopers as it turns out. wow! what a fantastic movie. Now this is not in the league of a multi- million dollar budget, but was awesome nonetheless. A little rushed, they needed about another hour to make it not so choppy. each scene was only for about 1 to 2 minutes max, so it was jumping around. That being said, the CGI was fantastic, the scenery in space spectacular, the acting was not that bad, and the blond bombshell was like a Barbie doll. Big brown eyes and puffy lips, whats not to like. All the actors were very competent and the background stages were excellent for the money spent. The spaceships looked great too, although it was rushed to put like 10 different types of ships or more and so many different worlds. Slow down a bit and more time with each scene and a little more money, you might have a spectacular winner.<br/><br/>So, for anyone just wanting to see some fantastic CGI space scenes, some really awesome ships and good enough acting on a rainy day, you want be disappointed. Just try to keep up! lol.
