This is a pretty good movie, but what's the deal with the stupid Thermian Audio Track?! Yeah, that makes sense -- let's waste disc space with a moronic audio track only a few supergeeks will listen to for about 5 minutes before it even gets on THEIR supernerd nerves. We certainly wouldn't want to include a French or Portuguese language track. You know, a REAL language. That wouldn't make sense! Then we'd probably sells thousands of more blu-rays to people who don't understand English or the dubbed Spanish track or (wait for it... wait for it...!) THERMIAN!
Stoopid.

I am not going to go into story, etc. The upgrade to Bluray us worth it. The picture looks amazing with this new Bluray. Very happy I purchased it.

What a treat to see this movie hit Blue-Ray. An underapreciated brilliant masterpeice of a comedy. The movie has a collection of awesome characters played to perfection by a brilliant cast, and Weaver looks amazing in this film. Her best ever in my opinion, and she's no spring chicken. Good for her. A true Alien-Movie legend, in an great roll, looking super. Galaxy Quest is a truly fun movie that will make you laugh, make you care, and entertain you from start to finish. That's the point afterall, isn't it. "COOL"!

When I first saw this, it was time when Trekkies and such were out. Star Trek was hot as a flashback/pop culture thing, and this movie looked to be a cheap cash-in.
But that couldn't be farther from the truth. I was shocked at how good it was. The story is spot-on, making fun of all the aspects that deserve it (fans, plot devices, typecasting, James Tiberius Kirk and more) and the cast was a fantastic get for a movie that plays as just a spoof. When you can get Sam Rockwell (in his 2nd best Sci-Fi role) to play a bit part, you're doing very well. And Tim Allen, who so often turns out poorly instead shows us all that with a good script, he can hold his own against actors like Alan Rickman and Tony Shalhoub who would seem to far outclass him.
This movie is entertaining all the way, with only a very few short dead spots. All the characters are played well and it actually works as its own story, beyond being a Star Trek riff.
I could hardly imagine how this could be made better. Even making it actually mention Star Trek directly would only limit their ability to make light of the characters and actors.
I could not possibly recommend this more to fans of Star Trek, Sci-Fi or just good comedy. This movie is one of a select few that I watch over and over when I need entertainment (alongside Caddyshack, Trading Places and Office Space), it's just that good.

I didn't expect too much when I first saw this movie, but I was really surprised as to how much fun it was. Most movies I get I only watch once, but this is one I keep watching because it's a great parody of the original Star Trek, which I loved, and has very interesting characters and is also a real hoot! One of the most underated flicks of all time. VERY worth it.
