Galaxy Quest (1999) – 102 min
This action comedy follows the adventures of a troupe of faded TV actors. When they are unwittingly beamed aboard an actual alien spacecraft, they rise to the occasion and fearlessly defend a group of aliens against an alien warlord. Starring Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, and Sam Rockwell, Galaxy Quest is a surprisingly amusing send-up of cult sci-fi television shows and infamous “Trekkie” fanaticism.
