Plot: Based on a popular series of video games, Wing Commander introduces us to an elite fighter squadron in the year 2654. The Earth confederation is at war with a vicious race called the Kilrathi. The Kilrathi have captured a navigational device which will allow them to jump through worm-holes in space to arrive behind enemy lines. Only this highly trained squadron, led by three young pilots, stand in their way. Christopher Maverick Blair (Freddie Prinze Jr.) is just out of the Academy, but his lack of experience is more than compensated by his exceptional navigational skills, though he is still haunted by the deaths of his parents in a previous galactic war. His friend, Todd Maniac Mashall (Matthew Lillard), is a brash, gung-ho fighter jock always rushing into danger. Their wing commander and leader is Jeanette Angel Deveraux (Saffron Burrows). Assigned these two new pilots by Admiral Geoffery Tolwyn (David Warner), the strong and beautiful Deveraux is at first resentful, but later develops feelings for Blair. Perhaps the two will find time for romance on their way to saving the solar system. ~ Ron Wells, All Movie Guide

I saw this movie when it was first released and was impressed with the opening graphics of the universe. It was also very entertaining while presenting some advanced concepts of quantum cosmology.

I've been looking for the DVD a long time... I watched it at sea aboard a ship when it was only available on VHS and it was great now I purchased the DVD to watch it at home.

I saw it in the theater once, and I'll never see it again.

Why?

Because this is such a CRAPPY film. It didn't really excite me, not even the action sequences. I heard how it's unfaithful to the video games (I watched my brother play them when I was very young), but I don't care if it is. This is still a horrible movie. Characters look like cardboard cutouts, action is dull, dialogue is cheesy and unamusing. Makes me wonder why this film was made in the first place.
