  • "Battlestar Galactica" is a science fiction film adapted from the TV series of the same name, directed by Richard A. Colla , starring Noah Hathaway and others. The film describes twelve representatives of human immigrants from alien planets gathered on the mother ship of the "War Star" to hold a peace meeting. One of them betrayed mankind with unruly intentions, causing the hostile "Selang" to attack mankind by surprise and almost wiped out the entire human army. . Fortunately, two young and brave warriors blew up the mother ship of the Serang tribe and rescued the entire crisis. This film attempts to catch up with the sci-fi action movie boom set off by " Star Wars ", but unfortunately it is much inferior in the plot, special effects photography and the handling of battle scenes, and it seems even more trivial by today's standards.

      The name is Earth.

      "Battlestar Karadiga"
      is actually not completely drawing. When I was
      lazy, I took a look at "Battlestar Karadiga" and felt that the screenwriter is really powerful. It is a very good TV series. (It is not the Japanese cartoon but the American one. (Series)
      Some plots and concepts are very moving. And I like to watch disaster movies other than wars. It
      is very fun to think that the story of tens of thousands of surviving humans constantly jumping and struggling to live in the...

    Movie plot

    Star Wars meets Wagon Train as a futuristic flotilla of ragtag explorers search for a mysterious savior planet known only as "Earth," while being pursued by the dreaded Cylons (cybernetic tin-can baddies with vocal patterns that closely resemble a Speak & Spell game) . This theatrical feature culled from the first and fourth episodes of the fondly remembered TV show is hilariously dated (the preponderance of polyester outfits and...

    Movie quotes

    • Commander Adama: And the word went forth to every outpost of human existence, and they came: the Aries, the Gemons, the Virgos, the Scorpios, the Pisceans and the Sagittarians. In all, 220 ships representing every colony, color and creed in the star system. The human race might have one more chance. But first, it would have to survive the alliance, the elements and the unknown dark and sinister threats that would lie ahead.

    • Lieutenant Athena: Commander, we're picking up some attack signals between Purple and Orange Squadrons. We don't *have* Purple and Orange Squadrons.

      Commander Adama: Purple and Orange?

      Colonel Tigh: Starbuck and Apollo?

      Commander Adama: Lord help them both!

    • Cylon Centurion: The warriors continue to advance, at least six squadrons.

      Imperious Leader: Recall all raiders to defend base ship!

      Cylon Centurion: Our raiders are all destroyed.

      Imperious Leader: All destroyed? How? We took them by surprise.

      Cylon Centurion: Apparently, it was not as big a surprise as we had hope for.

      Imperious Leader: Retreat closer to Carillon! Below their scanners!

      Cylon Centurion: There are reports of fires on Carillon.

      Imperious Leader: I said lower! Or they will destroy us!

      Cylon Centurion: By your command.
