Battlestar Galactica: Razor (2007 TV Movie)
9/10
A deep look inside human morale
11 November 2007
After a long waiting period, the series return in form of the second movie (the original miniseries was in fact that). Keeping in mid that not all people have seen the series; this movie introduce in a fast way all the data needed to understand the plot in the first 6 minutes. About the story itself, is a great improvement compared to season 3, explaining the mysterious way the Pegasus survive and giving a much more needed inside the minds of the survivors of the human race.

Almost no previous sci-fi series has taken the job or the respect to their audiences of building a full array of human emotions in the characters, and this create a perfect link to the quite impressive special effects. No hero results perfect, no villain is completely hateful in this story, giving the viewer that precious feeling that you are not being treated like a stupid just to have chosen a ''space movie'' instead of ''Bridges of Madison County''. The sensation after is that you have watched a good film (in general) and a great sci-fi flick.

If you are thinking ''this laser-monkey-suit kind of cinema it's not for me'', you couldn't be more wrong. If, from the other hand, want a well told story, interesting and meticulously crafted narration: this is for you. Saludos from Argentina.
