Stargate Universe (2009)
It's like Star Trek Voyager and Battlestar Galactica in one
Well I have to admit to being a huge Stargate fan and waited & waited for this new series to start but had a huge shock.
At first while watching it I thought this is a Battlestar Galactica rip-off with the back and present scenes which I found annoying on BSG never mind this. As the show went on I then got another feeling of deja-vu which was Star Trek Voyager, lost light years from Earth etc etc.
When I watched the trailer for this show I thought it was going to be great but it's clear now they put the good 5 minutes of the show in that and hoped for the best after (not daft are they). You get far to many scenes without much action and you are left hoping something has to happen next but it never does.
I can only hope the writers start checking the internet forums for the publics response of this show so they can put things back on track because the changes they've made to the franchise stink!

Don't watch it, you've been warned
I only watched this movie because I seen this "Won "Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy Feature" at the 2008 Mid-Ohio-Con Film Festival in Columbus, Ohio.". I now know never to watch anything that wins awards at that festival because this movie was atrocious and that's putting it polity.
The special effects were something even a Commodore Amiga from the mid 1980s could better and the acting was appalling.
You will also notice parts of this film have taken idea's from other films like Alien.
The only good thing I can say about this movie is the eye candy but are you that desperate, that's the question?
Caprica (2009)
Don't do it
I've been a huge Battlestar Galactica fan over the years but seriously this film has to be the most boring movie I've ever seen in my lifetime.
If you have a problem with insomnia then yes buy this film because you'll never have a problem sleeping again.
As a Sci-Fi fan you sit watching it expecting something to happen but it never really happens until the very end but by them you'll already be asleep! Ronald D. Moore stole an hour and 30 minutes of my life.
I would give this movie zero but 1 is the lowest they will allow. I'd be very surprised to see a prequel series after this unless big changes were made. On the other hand with a bit of luck it could force a sequel.
