Another film of the Babylon 5 variety, this one totally outside of the main story. I have always enjoyed Scoggins and she gets to play the main role here along with Doyle who was one of the best human characters on the series. The story is nothing special really, but it's still a fun movie.

This was a decent story. It had problems, and the holo brothel sub plot was just weird, but I enjoyed it. The guest actors were decent, and the main plot was interesting. I wish we'd seen a few more of the main cast from the TV show, even if this is set once most of them are off B5, but regardless it was an enjoyable movie.

Some interesting ideas, but overall it's weaker than all but the worst of B5 TV episodes. The B5 format doesn't lend itself well to standalone stories, and that weakness really shows itself here.

Not strong enough to support a feature. Only for fans.

It's one of the weakest B5 movies, probably the weakest one that didn't serve as a pilot. It might've worked as a regular episode, but as a feature length movie it doesn't really do that well. It's just not interesting and engaging enough and the guest actors/characters aren't that good either. If I wasn't such a big fan of B5 the score would've been even lower.

Top badass moment? Lochley finally gets to do her stuff without Sheridan getting in the way, but just ends up parading around in her underwear in a brothel. I’m not for a moment advocating such sexist nonsense, but... :-) Two antiques dealers get into a squabble over a beach ball. Zack has to put up with his old boss hanging around, again. Lt. Corwin demonstrates that he really is a bit odd. And there’s nothing about water pollution from shoemaking. No cats, chainsaws or decapitations.
