Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars (2004)

Farscape is an excellent series and I highly recommend it to all sci-fi fans. For various reasons I was not able to see the full series on TV when it was originally shown. I have recently watched series 1 to 4 and PKW on DVD and I was amazed at the first-class quality of the the series. Farscape is the best sci-fi show I have seen. The major characters were all likable, the story lines were fantastic and the FX and makeup were outstanding.I advise any newcomers to Farscape to watch it all on DVD or Blu-Ray; you won't be disappointed. Some of us yearn to travel the universe, alas it will never be. But shows like Farscape enable us to fulfill our dreams, even if only for an hour at a time. Thank you Farscape.

The problem with Science Fiction series is that they are either killed off before their time (like the Original Star Trek) or they overstay their welcome until you wonder what the point was. (all the Star Trek sequel series, pretty much.) Farscape was canceled by the Sci-Fi channel in 2003, merely proving that the people who run the Sci-Fi Channel shouldn't be allowed outside without adult supervision. Sadly, this resulted in the producers of Farscape leaving us with an unresolved cliffhanger on Season 4 that left us gasping with no promise of resolution.Skiffy somewhat redeemed itself (sorry, I still can't forgive them for 500 CGI monster movies they've added to film history) by allowing a four hour miniseries that had our intrepid crew reunited for one more mission to tie up all the loose plot points.Farscape is always carried by Ben Bowder as John Creighton, an American Astronaut who finds himself dealing with the insanity of the "uncharted territories" and the unique races and cultures he encounters. The supporting cast is all there, all giving it their best, even the ones who are muppets. (And sorry, some Farescape Muppets are more interesting than Star Trek people). What we get is a movie which is exciting, sad, funny and totally satisfying.

Tension inside Crichton's mind is overflowing, will he use his knowledge to do worm-hole weapons? There is war all over the galaxy and everyone is going to be exterminated, it is time to take hard decisions and to use expeditive methods...Farscape is, maybe, the best sci-fi series ever done, imaginative, touching, funny, entertaining, philosophic... It has everything: Impressive charismatic characters, great action and adventure, good special effects (at the end) and a delicious catching story... This story is preciously ended in this mini-series, which is the perfect ending for the series. The main problem is that, if you want to understand the movie, you must have seen the series, if not, you will understand nothing. Totally enjoyable!

Never has a show elicited so many emotions as Farscape PKW. Farscape fans are a dedicated and tenacious bunch and will never surrender until Season five is aired.There are twists and turns. Former enemies become allies, familiar faces return. The mini-series tied-up some loose ends, however, there are many more scenarios to be answered for. Also, they could have the series a three or even four parts. By making a longer mini-series, the regular cast members plot lines could have been extended. For example, Zhaan's brief appearance could have been extended longer than what it was and more Pilot dialogue.WANTED SEASON 5
