Movie Info

The cult-favorite science fiction series Farscape comes to a close. The bloodthirsty Scarran Empire unexpectedly declares war against the Peacekeeper Alliance, and the Peacekeepers are forced to strike back with all they have. The Peacekeepers' last, best hope lies in astronaut John Crichton (Ben Browder), an earthling who joined them when he was drawn into a wormhole in space. Can Crichton find a way to lead the Peacekeepers back through the same wormhole before they're destroyed by the Scarrans? Produced in part due to the volatile reaction from fans after Farscape was canceled with many plot threads left unresolved, Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars also features original cast members Claudia Black, Anthony Simcoe, Jonathan Hardy, Paul Goddard, and Gigi Edgley.

It's a worthy ending to the adventure, and one that justifies the narrative sacrifices the miniseries must make to reach that point.

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.

"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.

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.

TV Guide
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.

Audience Reviews for Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars

Dec 16, 2010

Certainly one for fans with its relentless tying of loose ends and its heavy dependence on prior knowledge of characters and background (a` la Star Trek etc ...). Cut down somewhat from the original release, it would have benefited from still more cutting as, if you're not totally in love with the characters, it can feel flabby and tedious at times in what IS a long "film". The parts that held my attention were actually good but there were not sufficient of them in relation to its running time for this to be a good film.

Haven't you read the Super Villain's Handbook? This is where you're supposed to twirl your mustache and gloat.

Loved the show. This film is a decent wrap on the series, but not a great one.
