movie review - Galaxy Quest

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2023.06.23

I watched this again with my daughter and I really enjoyed it. In fact, I realized on a second viewing -- some 23 years after having first seen it -- that it is a good deal smarter than several Star Trek offerings. It's got a great cast, a solid story, and just a great vibe to it.

Strongly recommended.

It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.
