Anyone who’s been to a Star Trek con big or small will relate to this movie.  Just think what it would be like if a race of aliens needed a hero and because of the speed of light viewed the old Star Trek and thought it was a news feed.  And came to Earth looking for Capt. Kirk and crew. Tim Allen makes a wonderful Kirkish Capt. And when he and his crew who are attending a reunion type con get recruited to save the universe the fun begins.  My favorite parts take place in the Galaxy Quest cons... brings back memories of Star Trek Cons past. (You may even see “yourself”!) This film is a lot of fun and you can find it on disc.
