Awesome!

Damn, i loved the movie. I mean, I haven't had this much fun watching a movie in ages. I'v also seen the old starwrecks and i love them as well. Samuli has got some superb skills on rendering. :) The bonus material was nice. The sets you have been shooting the movie, hehe living rooms, nice. I'v seen the movie 4 times.. and i think i'll go see it again right now. Acting was good, as most of the actors were amateurs, except for one. GaryBrany, he was a pro, no doubt about it. All though this was a lil darker movie (in my mind at least), i could watch this thing over and over and over again, and not get bored. The concept is excellent. Startrek and Babylon 5, or should i say Starwreck and Babel. I bet the Babylon fans don't like the movie as much as Startrekkers. You should certainly check this movie out.
