![]() Maybe it was just trying to give us a taste of what the show would have been like on HBO, i dunno just felt a little tacked on. Not that I had a problem with it, so to say, but it felt a little out of place, like it was trying to be a little shocking. I am not a prude but I must say that after seeing the unrated DVD, there is a bit of gratuitous nudity. There is a great opening sequence where we get a much more in depth look at the destruction of the colonies, but for a show called Battlestar Galatica we might expect some space jockey action. The third is that there are basically no space battles to be seen here. But I don’t think that the compelling part of this is what happens so much as why it happens, and what feelings and emotions are fueling the Cylons. We already know exactly what happens to all these characters. The second issue is that it is a retread. ![]() While this might be somewhat true, I don’t think it takes anything away from them, and if you liked the fourth season it adds something significant to it. The first being, that some might feel it being a retcon of the first two seasons to connects the events of the fourth. (How did Leobin know so much about Kara? Where Valeri’s actions intentional?) There are three issue that I can foresee someone having with this. Additionally, some of the plot lines that were never quite clear, begin to make sense. It also explores the intense cruelty and duality of Cavil. It retreads the old plot lines of the first two seasons, but knowing the revelations to take place it puts everything in a different light. What I really liked about this movie is that it kind of ties everything together. We see that Cavil plays a crucial role in orchestrating the Cylon events on the Galactica, while his Caprica counterpart takes the role of a distant observer to the struggling band of survivors on Caprica. ![]() ![]() ![]() The main character is actually Brother Cavil, in two different forms one on Caprica and one on-board Galatica. ![]()
