Alasdair Wilkins AV Club It's a worthy ending to the adventure, and one that justifies the narrative sacrifices the miniseries must make to reach that point. Apr 19, 2018 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand ... this taste of what the final season should have been is still a welcome conclusion to what was the best sci-fi TV of its day. Sep 9, 2023 Full Review Juliette Harrisson Den of Geek Even abbreviated resolution is better than no resolution at all, and any minor irritations are more than compensated for by the sheer joy of finally seeing Crichton and Aeryn get married. Apr 19, 2018 Full Review Joshua Tyler CinemaBlend "Farscape" has always been one of the most visually creative and beautiful shows on television, now with more money to throw around it is positively glowing. Rated: 4/5 Apr 19, 2018 Full Review Robert Pardi TV Guide Fans of the Sci-Fi Channel series will be glad to rejoin the characters they grew to love, but newcomers may not find this further adventure especially appealing. Rated: 2/4 Apr 19, 2018 Full Review KJB IGN Movies A generic, non-descript bit of punctuation at the end of a series that deserved something more and just couldn't leave well enough alone.

James M Great ending to a great series! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/03/23 Full Review kyle e Warning: Spoilers I am so grateful that this exists. In an age of television where there is so much to choose from and risky shows are usually just cancelled out of the blue - we have a three hour long film to show off one last adventure with all of our favourite characters and culminations to all of their stories. I fear that if Farscape had started just a few years ago we would have never seen this come about, so seeing it happen with just the right balance of fan-service and plot development was mesmerizing. I have to mention the visuals. Farscape went cinematic for its final triumph, and it really shows. Space battles seem reminiscent of Star Wars and the character designs are similar enough to stay true to the show but with that blockbuster edge. The Scarrans finally look as menacing as they've been portrayed to be and the new race introduced in the shocking cliffhanger to Season 4 look great. I really don't want to talk about Jothee in regards to his character so I'll just say he looks laughably bad but that's not down to the crew. It was good to see other Luxans, I guess. The storyline is absolutely worthy of being a three-hour sci-fi film and the culmination of the Farscape tale. I'm sure people who had never heard of the show would get enjoyment out of the vast war depicted and the personal drama of Crichton's crew and the villains. Their quest is certainly epic in terms of scale and consequences. I loved all of the darker elements, too, that have proven to be a key part of Farscape - it seemed uniquely appropriate that all of the 'deus ex machinas' set up in the first half were shown to fail in the latter part, with the priest being so close to converting the Scarran Emperor no less. I was wondering if Scorpius would be involved and I think it was perfect to see him helping the protagonists for once, paying homage to Crais before him. Harvey remains a timeless gem of comedy. They had definitely already provided the necessary trauma and sadness crucial to a final episode with the devastating death of Ka D'Argo. I won't pretend this wasn't savagely emotional. There's a lot of time just after the fact that are tough to get through, I'm glad enough time was given for a proper send-off, but my tear ducts aren't. And now they get to live in peace. No final cliffhanger, outlasting feud or mental parasite. Farscape as we know and love it is over. Though I have heard a couple of Season 5 rumours flying about, I don't know if I believe them, or if I would even want another season. Farscape as a complete show, four seasons and a film, which is more than enough really, works incredibly well, and I can't wait to rewatch the later seasons. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A visceral, mildly entertaining flick about 'I want world peace' (Or in this case galactic peace). This flick is a takeoff of several other movies in costumes & plot. They must have emptied the costumes from the hollywood warehouses. The Scarrans are a mix of The Terminator's alien, Uruk-Hai Orcs from the Hobbit movies, and the general costumes from Star Wars. The Peacekeepers are the Jedi from Star Wars but they have lost their way/focus and become dark without the Eidolons to give them direction. A lot of pagan eastern mysticism directs the plot. They do use a real life event with the umbrella poison dart. Israeli operatives killed an American oilfield pipeline designer with this exact method & in a similar setting in Europe when they mistook his purpose. I wonder if hollywood evens knows this. Way too much crude sexual innuendo & to much thinly veiled vulgarity, frell is the 'F' word, etc. Except for this the movie would be for the adolescence male demographic group. I would not recommend anyone waste over three hours watching this. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member After 4 seasons of Farscape, Peacekeeper Wars was the ending it deserved. Some action, some laughs, some sadness - it encapsuled what Farscape was to me and provided a good ending for a show I enjoyed immensely. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review brian l An awesome ending to an truly epic show. Would only recommend if they had watched the TV Series otherwise it would not make sense. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Immensely satisfying way wrap up the series short of making the entire 22 episode run. It's the show I judge all others by.
