don not waste your time with this . if i have know that this be a make for tv movie and with fade out for commercial and and a to be continue pause in the middle of the dvd and i would not have rent it . it be a waste of 2 hr and 45 minute of my time . i do believe that the special effect be suppose to be cheesy and a if to imitate the 1961 original film . if that be the case and they do not even match up to that and that movie be 45 year old for cry out loud . but go rent the original . it be much good . even jason and the argonaut movie hand down have 100 time well effect than this movie . patrick stewart and one of my favorite actor of today and the main reason that i rent it and be fair at best . you could tell that he be just walk through this role and suffer along with the rest of u . and he sure be not at all interested in vie for an oscar or emmy . yikes . oh and and do i mention that this be a totally useless movie . stay away . a galaxy far and far away .
