Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome
The first Cylon war has been raging for 10 years and a young Ensign William Adama joins the fleet. Disappointed not to be assigned to a fighter but to a freighter, his co-pilot also isn't too keen on having a rookie flying his aircraft as he has only a short time before he again becomes a civilian. Their cargo is a civilian scientist, but they no sooner leave than she has new orders for them and a new destination. Although she’s less than forthcoming about the details, Adama is keen—particularly as it involves going into Cylon controlled space. However, nothing is as it seems.

Overrated and overhyped
Excellent adaptation.
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
After watching Caprica this is quite a letdown. It seemed that half the movie was CGI, the other half top-gun-ish a boy and his machine.Oh yeah, boys and girls shower together! Every adolescent boys' wet dream. Character development? Uh not really. If I recall correctly Uncle Scrooge comics of the 1950's had more of such.But not to be a total loss, the CGI was rather good.
It's young William Adama (Luke Pasqualino) in the First Cylon War getting his first assignment on the Battlestar Galactica. He's a young gun, top of his class, and itching to start shooting Cylons. However he's put into a Raptor to transport supplies. On his first mission, he's given an uneventful milk run assignment. His co-pilot Coker (Ben Cotton) is a war weary short timer who's only too happy to have a nothing mission. As they leave BSG, their passenger Dr. Becca Kelly (Lili Bordán) tells them that their mission has changed and it becomes something much more deadly.It has a lot of CGI space battles in the first half. It looks functional, but not at the same standard as the TV series. The lead Luke Pasqualino doesn't have the same quality as Edward James Olmos. The story is acceptable but not as amazing as I would have wanted. The way it was portrayed in the TV show, I expected much more. Also Luke Pasqualino just doesn't have the same level of power or screen presence even if you add in the age difference. It's a reasonable TV movie, but that's about it.
"Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome" is a nice Sci-Fi TV Movie which has to do with a battle between machines and robots against the humans. I liked this movie because of the special visual effects and for the plot of it.Luke Pasqualino who plays as William Adama a very good pilot who is getting involved in the First Cylon War. He makes a really nice interpretation and at the start of this movie his acting reminds me a little bit Tom Cruise in the Top Gun movie. I also liked the interpretation of Ben Cotton who plays as Coker Fasjovik the co-pilot of William Adama in the war.Finally I want to tell you that this movie is a really nice movie to spend your time on it because it makes you feel how is to be in a space war and a pilot on it...
Another spin off to an already DEAD franchise! I mean TAKE A HINT people you practically killed the franchise off with the remake off the series instead off continuing the original story! so PLEASE let it rest in peace! This is nothing more then money making of course the clueless fans does NOT seem to understand this at all as long as they get the special effects! The story is already done with everyone already know what is going to happen! Plus there is no originality in this re imagined version it looks more like a crossover between Twin Peaks,Real BSG and lost in space(WITHOUT the humor)! Sadly this has been done before to the Star Trek franchise starting with TNG which was little more then a total failure though Enterprise was a valiant attempt at salvaging the franchise even though it ultimately failed as well! The makers off Babylon 5 at least made a story that had a beginning a middle and an ending though various spin off's was attempted failed and simply put to rest!
