MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

machrf To be fair to the company/group, whatever, created this I suffered through several episodes of these presentations. The first was just awful, but others have improved. I was surprised to see George T in one episode but it seemed to have a good affect on the other actors. Their acting improved a couple of notches.Many of the complaints are accurate. The acting is not up to par to take this seriously, although, I am happy to say I've seen improvement. Like others, I think if they got away from trying to copy the original actors and used fewer of the series clichés, they would come off a bit better.The special effects are fantastic and how ever they were able to get Paramounts cooperation is amazing. Once Paramount signed with Creations, they have become anti fan and a terror to deal with. Roddenberry supported and looked for fan participation.The worst criticism I can say about this series is that some Star Trek Fan plays with no props have come across much better. Again, seeing the improvement over time, gives me hope they may just pull this off. Until then I will have to keep this review at a 3 star.

ebiros2 The look and feel even down to the NBC Color broadcast notice nailed the atmosphere of Star Trek (TOS) when it was aired during the original broadcast. The special effects are surprisingly - above that of the original TOS series. Huh ? and this was done on someone's personal income ?Every aspect of this show is shocking, beginning with the replica of Enterprise's bridge that James Cawley built himself. CGI's look and feel is very reminiscent of the original series as well. While they used miniatures of the spaceship riding on a track on the TOS vs. this series using CGI, the two looks remarkably "the same" (notice I didn't use "similar"). But in fine ways, the effects are better in this series because of the things possible with CGI.The original series ended in an unsatisfactory way for the fans, and this series recaptures what we would like to have seen as a continuation. What's mind blowing is that this country has the kind of talent pool that can pull this kind of creation off by amateurs, on literally their pocket money.My hats off to James Cawley for pulling this off. He keeps what can be kept authentic as much as possible like using unused scripts from the TOS whenever he can. Acting can be better, but again, this is way beyond a town show, and when the original actors shows up, it takes the excitement a notch or two higher.It's a beautiful show, and I hope the production keeps going for years to come.

mzkin1-1 I have watched the episodes that Crowley has put together. Keep in mind the majority of these are not professional actors, they have other jobs, but decided to pool resources and time to create this magnificent effort. Instead of studio red tape, we have a group of committed individuals who have taken a step to penetrate and enrich the ST universe. In many ways, their effort embodies what Roddenberry tried to infuse into the original series--that we can go where no one has gone before. Objectively, of course, the acting isn't perfect, not even the special effects, but it is still a joy to watch because it is a fine effort in storytelling that pulls these elements together in a cohesive and entertaining way. I enjoy the angles they've created that have built off lingering questions from the original ST episodes. Come on folks, why do you have people like George Takei (and others) coming on board to do an episode with them (and it was a great story to watch and hear)? They do it because they love the ST universe, and they can appreciate what STNV is adding to it. I applaud this effort.

ryancbritt Every year it becomes harder and harder to say that you like Star Trek. These "New Voyages" dorks are putting the final nail in the coffin.The thing I don't understand about fan fiction or fan films is the desire people have to live in someone else's art. It's one thing to make homages. It's one thing to be inspired. But to outright copy something? It's just so intellectually backwards. The whole point of pulpy sci- fi like Star Trek is to entertain and make you think. Doing fan films and fan fiction is downright pointless.The fact that many Star Trek regulars are part of this joke just makes me lose respect for them. Are the people in Star Trek now as nerdy and directionless as the fans? All the production problems with this thing are obvious. But the writing is so generic. D.C. Fontana---WHY? I couldn't even watch the whole episode. Economic crisis with Federation Credits? Generic attacks from the Klingons? Chekov catches a disease he already had? I don't mind the Strange New World short stories that come out every year from pocket books, but this kind of trash is just pointless. Stop making Star Trek fans look bad! All of you!
