Here's an interesting review. Pretty much echos everything I thought of this movie when I caught it on DVD a few months ago.

Pretty boring movie. Saw it a few months ago. Most of it is reused footage and what is new is pretty much all Dean Stockwell.
I am a fan of the series but this movie was quite annoying.

If you're a BG fan, it might be worth watching, but as a fan, I didn't enjoy this one at all. There's a whole lot of talking nonsense, lots of old scenes and not much that really fills in the gaps. I actually didn't even make it through the whole 2 hours.

Yeah I would only recommend watching this if your a die hard BSG fan. I agree the movie overall was pretty dull. They do a nice job integrating the new footage into the older scenes.

I really enjoyed it, but if you haven't seen the whole series, it will be incomprehensible.

This movie is actually a prequel takes place during Season 1/2 mainly filling in alot of blanks. You can probably watch it if you are up to that point.

After the 30th scene in a row where Stockwell was the main focus, I gave up.
He didn't have that much screen time in the prior 4 seasons combined.

Didn't care much for it when I saw it on DVD. And I didn't really care that it felt like the nudity was tacked-on for no other reason than "oh, we can do that on home video!"

Finally saw it.
Seemed more like an extended clip show that should have shown up in the last half of the fourth season than an actual movie.
On the plus side, it did a fairly decent job of putting all of the puzzling things the Cylons were doing during the series into a mostly cohesive context.
