646f9e108c A two-hour Battlestar Galactica special that tells the story of the Battlestar Pegasus several months prior to it finding the Galactica. … true to the Battlestar Galactica style. You just can't be wrong with the writers of BSG. And you won't be disappointed with RAZOR. Michelle Forbes's acting as Admiral Helena Cain is once again bold, heartpounding and perfect; it goes on to illustrate the even tougher side of this leader, as well as the human side of her. Unlike all the other movies out there where a protagonist and antagonist stands out, there are no truly "good" or "evil" in RAZOR. And that's exactly the case with human society. Each character is uniquely portrayed with each of their own ambitions, fears, motives, strengths and weakenesses. It is also insteresting to see the changes of the newly introduced character of Kendra Shaw as the tough circumstances around her gradually molds her into what she is at the end of the film. Overall, an excellent piece of drama, coupled with some unique plot twists and surprises to ready you for Season 4, and not missing excellent SFX. However, IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR PURE STAR-WARS STYLE NO-BRAINER ACTION, This film will bore you out. I've been sitting on the edge of my seat for Season 4 to start. Season 3 I thought really pumped in andrenaline into the series. I've watched the last 2-part episode a number of times, and the very last scene with a cover of Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower, really moved me cinematically.<br/><br/>Razor, it is a tease…but it also is there to enhance the existing storyline. It isn't about human morality, and what is right or wrong, sure the movie is trying to defend the actions of the previous commanders of the Pegasus…but Razor is trying to stress the importants of Starbuck. Our lead female from this film, is passing the Razor mentalities to our (supposidely dead) heroine. Flatly, something big is about to go done in our Battlestar Universe. If we weren't ready for a year to pass at the end of Season 2, or our General to get shot at the end of Season 1, or for another battlestar to show up period…we definitely arn't ready for what starbuck is about to show us.
