Battlestar Galactica, 2004 re-imagined series ended in fourth and final season. Fans were happy and fans were unhappy. In the fourth season finale there were a lot of answers to questions around the background story, who is who and what is their purpose. Of course, there are still questions that were left unanswered.
Will the upcoming movie, which is expected to be aired in November, answer those questions? Some of them perhaps, I doubt that we will get to know what was going on with Starbuck.
The Plan will be all about Cylons’ plan and the masterminds behind it. The Cylon perspective of the whole story. James ‘Adama‘ Olmos told that after you see The Plane, you will want to see the whole series again. I hope that this is true.
For now, we’re keeping our fingers crossed for Tricia Helfer‘s re-appearance in some new, previously unseen, ‘they-ran-out-of-fabric’ dress.
Academy award nomination for best performance by an actor in a leading role and best performance by an actress in a supporting role slipped away from rough Mickey Rourke, who portrays Randy ‘The Ram’ Robinson and slightly aged, but still sexy looking Marissa Tomei as sensual dancer Cassidy.
All I can say … shame. Because the movie is quite good. Drama describing a relationship between ‘The Ram’, his daughter Stephany played by Evan Rachel Wood, and wrestling. He is constantly hunted by choices he has made in his life, and Cassidy always has the cure for them. All is fine until one day, when he least expected falls down and ends in a hospital bed.
Movie was produced and directed by Darren Aronofsky whom we had the pleasure of meeting in the science fiction drama The Fountain. Movie is a constant flow of unknown feelings which tear The Ram apart. Constantly falling and trying to stand up until a supporting hand picks him up and helps him find his way.
It can easily be rated 9 of 10.
Bear in mind that this is a drama, a sport drama. Where people get hurt. Some blood, acted violence, 1 or 2 sex screens, drugs, harsh language, probably not suited for younger audience. Have a peek at the trailer if you have not seen it and remember “The only place I get hurt is out there.”.
Story is set in post nuclear future. It is the year 2018. Skynet, a sentient and self-aware artificial intelligence, nuked human race to save itself from possible destruction and it almost succeed. But humans are resilient. Resistance fighters pop up everywhere around the globe. People of Earth are united against a common enemy – machines. And they just started to mount resistance, which has a good chance of succeeding, if …
Movie was directed by Joseph McGinty Nichol better known as McG . It has all the elements of a good action flick and some tender moments, good sci-fi background with interesting CGI effects. Movie fits well in Terminator storyline.
Pure 6 of 10. Can’t give it much more than that.
Good movie to spend the night with friends if you don’t have anything better to do. What the movie lacks is a good cameo appearance of Governator, more story details, some more feelings and a foreseeable end of the saga which might happen in Terminator 5. Or will it? Anyway trailer just for you.
