Movie Reviews
Underrated

(4 out of 5 stars)
"I think this is one of the cult classic shows thats underrated and only known to those people who are old enough to remember it. As for the reasons this is why....there are probably too many from the fact that it ran for only a season to William Shatner retaining rights or whatever. I'm glad this came out, but unfortunately i'm not buying it and i'll tell you why. This series is only worth watching if you've seen the TV movies that aired before the series got picked up. Like the Kevin Sorbo Hercules TV movies that came first THEN the series. They should include EVERYTHING! otherwise It would be unfair to the fans. Hearing a backstory during a series especially like this one is NOT good enough. Phenomonal show, Even more phenomenal movies...release em all and i'll buy em all."
Tek War Series but no pilot or movies

"I have been looking forward to this series for a while. Only one rant, where are the first 4 episodes. No Pilot, Tek Lab, Tek Lord or Tek Justice. How can it be a complete series without these.
It kind of pisses me off"
What?

"Question for the Network and whom ever could be held accountable. First: did Glen get an answer? How can you call a release complete series if the first 4 episodes are missing? Second is there absolutely no truth in advertising? As much as I was looking forward to this release and enjoyed the show WTF? I give the DVD makers and the Networks a one star for a half a**ed effort at a good program. Oh Bill and Greg and you others, the writers, Tech peeps; I give you folks 5 stars."
WHERE ARE THE TV MOVES!!

"When I picked up the Canadian release years Age I was so happy that it came out,And now with this release i really thought they where going to include the TV Moves with it. I was wrong! The Only way to get the movies right now is to find the VHS taps (SUPPER! hard to find). If you have A VHS and can get your hands on the tapes I recommend waching them before you buy this release. The Series builds so much on the movies that it is A required prerequisite. So If you want to buy it go ahead but i recommend waching the movies first.

No Episode Guide

"I've been waiting for TekWar to be released on DVD for years and today I received my copy. First thing I noticed is the cover of the packaging is different than what's shown on Amazon, which is not a big deal. When I opened the box, there was no guide along with an episode synopsis. I only mention this because most TV DVDs I have purchased include one. One other item of disappointment is the dialogue of the actors seems soft but the background and incidental music is loud. Could be my TV settings. I shouldn't complain because watching this show is a treat. I haven't seen it since its original airing on USA. The cast is great and Shatner is supreme!"
