Full Plot Details

The sci-fi television series "Galaxy Quest", which took place aboard the intergalactic spaceship NSEA Protector, starred Jason Nesmith as suave Commander Peter Quincy Taggart, Gwen DeMarco as sexy communications person Lt. Tawny Madison (a role which consisted solely of repeating what the computer stated, much to Gwen's chagrin), Shakespearean trained Sir Alexander Dane as alien Dr. Lazarus, Fred Kwan as engineer Tech Sergeant Chen, and Tommy Webber as child pilot Laredo. Eighteen years after the series last aired, it lives on in the hearts of its rabid fans. However, it lives on in infamy for its stars, who have not been able to find meaningful acting work since. Their current lives revolve around cashing in on however those roles will afford, which usually entails attending fan conventions or worse, such as electronic store openings. Only Jason seems to relish his lot in life, until he finds out that his co-stars detest him because of his superior attitude as "the Commander", and much of the public considers him a laughing stock. Their lives change when Jason is approached by who he thinks are convention fans asking for help. They are in reality an alien race called Thermians, led by Mathesar, who have modeled their existence after the series, which they believe to be real. When Jason and then the rest of his co-stars (along with Guy Fleegman, who was killed off before the opening credits in only one episode) go along with the Thermians, Jason's co-stars who believe they are off to yet another paying gig, they learn that they have to portray their roles for real. Without screenwriters to get them to a happy and heroic ending, they have to trust that their play acting will work, especially in dealing with the Thermians' nemesis, General Sarris. Guy in particular fears that he will go the way his character did on the series. But when they run across technical issues that they as actors didn't care anything about during the filming of the series and thus now don't know how to deal with, they need to find someone who should know what to do.

Movie Reviews

eFilmCritic.com - 10/10 by Rob GonsalvesAn enormously entertaining pop-culture ride.
Newsday - 10/10 by John AndersonSpaceballs meets the Six Clueless Samurai.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleMore than one joke or one idea. It's a thoroughly satisfying comedy --and a respectable space adventure, as well.
New York Magazine/Vulture - 10/10 by Peter RainerThe drolleries take precedence over the special effects.
Los Angeles Daily News - 9/10 by Glenn WhippA playful send-up of science-fiction conventions that has enough laughs to please audiences looking for something a little light among all the year-end cinematic gloom.
PopMatters - 9/10 by Mike WardIt's a pretty funny movie, and thinking about all this too much while seeing it will just ruin all the jokes.
New York Post - 9/10 by Jonathan ForemanOne of the holiday movie season's more pleasant surprises. A mischievously clever and slickly commercial sci-fi comedy.
Dallas Observer - 9/10 by Luke Y. ThompsonThe makers of this film are clearly fans, and they've put more heart and genuine humor into this piece than Paramount has into the original franchise in years.
Film Quips Online - 9/10 by John R. McEwenEven if you've never seen a Gene Roddenberry creation, it's still a hoot.
Jam! Movies - 9/10 by Bruce KirklandIt's silly and even stupid, but the sci-fi spoof Galaxy Quest is also really funny.
