a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I have just finished watching this show for the third time since it's release on DVD. But I still, reluctantly, retain my 8/10 rating, even though I now feel quite different about it.The story-line had great potential, and I would have so loved to discover the meaning of these artifacts. Alas, it will not happen.What really lets it down for me are the characters. These characters are elite Astronauts that should be the pinnacle of respect, maturity and intelligence.Instead we get a bunch of alcoholic, over-sexed characters. Seriously, is it believable to be in training for the highest standard of excellence, yet head off to the the bar every night to drink until they vomit, then show up the next day for training? I call absolute bulls#$%t on that!! But the worst character had to be this Paula Morales whose entire script seem to be limited to telling people they were "disgusting" whenever the word sex was spoken, "Miracles", making the sign of the cross at every opportunity, her St Christopher medallion which barely left her mouth as she kissed it so much. That was absolute nonsense. Plus the fact that she spoke like a 6 year old girl, which forced me to FF her scenes.And a Medical Officer that suffers PTSD... on a 6 year isolated mission???The script writers portrayed astronauts extremely poorly. It is no wonder it was cancelled.

This is one of the best Science Fiction TV shows out there. If you decide to give it a chance, you will soon become addicted to the series. The only problem is the disappointing ending, as ABC decided to cut the show short. I wish that they would have at least given us an ending like we were given with 'Fire Fly', which to me did not leave you on so much of a cliff hanger. I don't like to give anything away, as i find the show has quite a few stories with in the main storyline. There is drama, action and some beautiful space visuals. Fun for the whole family, and has the feeling of 'Greys Anatomy' meets 'Extant'. You will fall in and out of love with certain characters, but realising that we are all human, and each of us has our good and bad days. I recommend 'Defying Gravity' to everyone i know, hoping that they will be as outraged as i was. I would suggest you watch it as well, and spread the word. We need them to bring it back!

I happen to come across this show in all places at my local library! The premise for the show caught my interest and once I began watching it I wanted to get to the next episode to see what happened. Unfortunately, I've been left hanging after episode 13 because the show was CANCELLED!!! There have been some decent sci-fi drama shows that always get cut short because the normals of society just don't get it or have enough imagination to believe in the idea of what is out there!These days it's all about reality TV and watching people screw up or who are in a worse situation than yourself or on the off chance compete to win the prize!! But really, have our lives become so drab that we have to watch these other people succeed at something to make our lives more fulfilling? I guess I'm a dreamer and enjoy shows like this because they make me think about the possibilities. They make me forget about my daily woes and pull me into the story. That's what good TV shows do!It's too bad these networks have lost site of that and it explains a lot of why TV has gotten as absurd as it has in the past few years!!!It would be great if they got this show into a mini-series to finish it up.
