Well, I'm sure some readers might rightly criticize that I'm not very well qualified to review this movie, due to an obvious potential conflict of interest. To them I say: This is my web page, and I can write what I want. If you don't like it, you can take it with a grain of salt, or go surf somewhere else.

With this production, veteran director Ted Logan returns to the phosphorescent screen to once again wow audiences the world over with his behind-the-camera genius. The scifi epic introduces newcomer Ben Kinder as a washed out, slightly spacey old starship captain at his wits end on the edge of the galaxy, and features Willy Logan (of "The Why? Files" fame) as the lieutenant helmsman communications officer in the noname region of space.

Ordered by Space Command to investigate the loss of contact with Nevus 4, the two heroes embark on a mission which has the potential to change not only the course of their own lives, but the future of the entire galaxy!

The screenplay is a dazzling work of poetic genius. The writers obviously took painstaking effort to come up with each and every profound line, delivered with stunning poingancy by the cast. And the scope of the subject matter they have managed to tackle here.... absolutely astounding. I still don't know how they pulled it off. Unbelievable.

Words I might use to describe this movie: Suspenseful. Spellbinding. And oh, the ending... the bittersweet memories of a romance remembered -- a romance which would carry on through the ages -- had me teary-eyed. This movie really does have everything.

And I haven't even started on the special effects... The wizardry of the new millennium's premiere film making technology put to its best use!

lol.
