Very Cool!!!

Purely Joyful Movie!

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

It's 60 solar days after the end of the TV series. The gang recovers the pieces of John Crichton (Ben Browder) and Aeryn Sun (Claudia Black). They get reconstituted but the baby is missing which has taken hold in Rygel. The water world is the home of the last of the Eidelon, a species with special abilities. The Peacekeepers and Scarrans are engaged in an all-out war. Scorpius senses the return of Crichton and withdraws from the battle in hopes of gaining the secret to a wormhole weapon.This is a continuation of the TV series. This is strictly fan service. It doesn't make sense unless one has seen the whole TV show all the way to the finale. The effects are slightly better than the show which is both good and bad. There is a charm to the low budget production and the movie isn't bad enough to wow. The story is disjointed. It feels like somebody is throwing everything and every character into the pot. It's to be expected as the movie is trying to do everything for the fans.

The television show "Farscape" is perhaps one of the best I have ever watched. I sat fascinated through the 88 episodes, whether I was laughing, crying, or cheering on the crew of Moya. But this mini-series lacks the feel of the television series (which it began to lose in its fourth season). It feels like any old sci-fi movie - not like Farscape. The cameos of old characters seem a bit forced, the plot is cliché, the battles are uninteresting (and much to long and unrealistic). JC and the crew of Moya are *not* heroes - thats what makes them so fun to watch, they are just looking out for themselves, trying to survive in a dangerous universe - so why force them into that role in this movie? Its unfortunate that such a fantastic show has to go out by such a terrible movie. It could have - should have been - much better. Its not terrible, but I rate it a 1 in hopes of dropping its too generous score as is. I rate the show 10. Check that out, then watch this if you love the show, but don't keep your hopes too high.

Be warned people.There is a much cut version of the Peacekeeper Wars out there. I'm a bit of a Farscape fan and was looking forward to seeing this for ages. So when it was shown (on Channel 5 in the UK) recently I taped it and watched it. I was appalled. It was plain AWFUL. Characters appeared and disappeared, jumped from from place to place, did things for no apparent reason, seemed to have developed strange new powers with no explanation. It was, not to mince words, total and utter crap. No rhythm no humour just action action action all the way through. This was not the Farscape I knew. What had gone so horribly wrong? Then I realised the version I had watched had been hacked to get it into a 2 hour time slot. 182 minute chopped down to 120 minutes, then, minus advert breaks and the News half way through - call it 110 (and I'm being generous) That's 70+ minutes removed. What was left was a mess.Check running times before sitting down to watch.

I have always been a SCI-FI fan. I watched every Star Trek series, Battlestar Galactica ( old & new ) and every other series that has appeared on TV. When a new show was starting on SCI-FI called Farscape, I gave it a try .. and was I ever surprised. It has created a new standard by which all other SCI-FI shows will be judged.It had action, humor, suspense & GREAT characters !I was very disappointed when it was canceled by SCI-FI. But when Peacekeeper Wars aired they redeemed themselves. It was a GREAT conclusion to several of the loose ends & left open the possibility of further journeys in the Farscape world. I can't say enough about the Peacekeeper Wars mini series … it was GREAT !!!!I look forward to seeing John, Aeryn, D'Argo ( he will return ), Moya, Rygel, Chiana, Scorpy and Pilot again !!!! Bring on more Farscape !!!!
