| **1/2 (out of 4) You're dragged to a party after a Star Trek convention,
and you get trapped in a corner by a "uniformed" nerd who thinks he's
interesting. He's telling you his idea for a screenplay, called GALAXY
QUEST, where William Shatner- and...more |

| "Galaxy Quest" is a funny and clever spoof on "Star Trek" and its many spin-

it is this one. For Star Trek fans (and you know who you are) Galaxy

| You'd think it would be easy to spoof Star Trek, but try spoofing it
without cruelly mocking it. That's a bit more difficult. The farfetched
