    This movie was quite horrible. I really liked the entire Babylon 5 series; some of it was downright amazing. But this.... thing.... it's hard to believe that it was created by the same guy. I don't know who to blame; I don't suppose the script or story was exactly bad, so perhaps JMS gets a partial pass. I guess the director and cast should get the blame. I really wanted to turn it off after just 5 minutes, but I keep watching for another hour or so before I gave up. I still intend to finish it, but I'm not sure why. I was always fascinated by the Rangers/Anla-Shok in Babylon 5, yet in this movie they just rubbed me the wrong way. The added bit to the Ranger's code (about never breaking away from combat) just seemed like cheating to add needless drama at the beginning (which wasn't even dramatic, just stupid). I absolutely HATED the holographic/virtual-reality weapons control system; at least the punching/kicking to fire weapons just struck me as ridiculous.

    What a disappointment. I thought the idea of following the Rangers was great, but the storyline was mediocre. If this was a pilot for a new series then I'd have hope, but B5 has been out there for quite a few years. The special effects have come a long way from B5's first year, i'll give 'em that...
