Battlestar Galactica: The Plan (2009)
Over the weekend, I took a few days away from the blog to
focus on homework and writing the short film script that had kicked my butt
over the week. Now, with a new week starting and my homework behind me, I
decided to jump back in with the 2009 SyFy Channel entry Battlestar Galactica:
The Plan.
Plot/ When the initial Cylon attack against the Twelve
Colonies fails to achieve complete extermination of human life as planned, twin
Number Ones (Cavils) embedded on Galactica and Caprica must improvise to
destroy the human survivors.
After holding out for some time because I am a huge fan of
the original series, I decided to venture into some of the newer Battlestar Galactica
mythos with this entry. While I do understand that I may have to come back to
this one after watching the series (and miniseries), I at least found this
entry interesting with some outstanding performances and striking visuals. I
will admit that I found some of the film disjointed and uneven. Of course, this
could be from not watching any of the modern adaptations. In the end, this one
is not my favorite entry, and does nothing to erase my memories of the classic Battlestar
Galactica from my youth.
