Product Description

When a full-scale war is engaged by the evil Scarran Empire, the Peacekeeper Alliance has but one hope: reassemble human astronaut John Crichton, once sucked into the Peacekeeper galaxy through a wormhole. Crichton's task: Get the entire Peacekeeper race to safety before the last war of an era brings an end to the universe.

Created at least in part due to popular demand, Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars will provide some closure to fans who were dismayed by the demise of the popular science fiction television show in 2003 and campaigned mightily to bring it back. Indeed, this miniseries (originally broadcast over two nights on the Sci-Fi Channel) will likely appeal primarily to the Farscape faithful, as the somewhat convoluted storyline may prove baffling to the uninitiated.

A brief bit of backstory explains how John Crichton, an astronaut from Earth, went through a wormhole and ended up on Moya, a living spaceship, with a motley group of aliens, including D'Argo (Anthony Simcoe), Chiana (Gigi Edgley), various puppet characters (designed by the Jim Henson Company), and Aeryn (Claudia Black), Crichton's love interest, who's expecting their first child. As The Peacekeeper Wars begins, our heroes find themselves in the middle of a war-to-end-all-wars between the lizard-like, implacably evil Scarrans and their rivals, the Peacekeepers. Crichton is the lynchpin in all of this, as his knowledge of "wormhole technology" is coveted by all, including his old nemesis Scorpius (Wayne Pygram), who captured and tortured Crichton back in season 1 and with whom Crichton must now form an uneasy alliance against the Scarrans.

Over the course of the three-hour miniseries, we get lots of weird- and cool-looking aliens, some nice sets and special effects, plenty of battles, and lots of portentous talk about the fate of the universe--nothing especially original, but all presented with outstanding production values. There's drama and action, love and betrayal, tragedy and triumph, war and, ultimately, peace, with a suitably spectacular ending (and a nod to Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey). With a 30-minute "making of" documentary among the DVD special features, The Peacekeeper Wars is a fitting way to end the Farscape saga. --Sam Graham

Loved it!.......2007-07-01

I really like Farscape, so all I can say about it is positive. The characters are superb, the plots are good, and the humour is welcomed!

Really like the romance between Aeryn and Chricton, because it's not typical, and loved Chiana becauzse she is so cheeky! ;)

It was a good way to give clousere to the serie. But I have to recognize I'm still shocked it got cut... it was an awesome production!!!!!! Going to better all the way!!!!

"Ending" to Farscape? .......2007-06-25

I have heard, maybe just rumor, that since this "movie" did so well, that there would be an extension, of some form, of this series. One can only hope. This is another example of the Sci-Fi Channels mis-handling of a great series; and it was to be replaced by, "The Dream Team?" How pathetic was that?

Yes, if you've never seen the series, you are not going to be able to follow this show, what do you expect? It was supposed to be a "final" episode, and what a great series it was.

All in all, I really miss this show. Good thing I have them all on DVD. Long live the 'Scapers'!!!!

Confusing.......2007-06-11

If you are a fan of the Farscape TV series, you may well like this movie. I have never seen the series and found The Peacekeeper Wars to be confusing because it assumes you know the history of the characters and story line.
Although I have found other Jim Henson productions engaging - I especially liked Labyrinth -- I found this one to be seriously lacking in depth of character. They were walking paper dolls. Only 'Pilot' showed any real personality.
There was a plot twist at the end that I found interesting - even ironic - but it wasn't enough to redeem the movie. I'll be putting this one back up for sale: not a keeper.

perfect blend of comedy drama scifi and sexy.......2007-05-30

The wonderfully whimsical realm of Farscape culminates terrifically in this series mini-movie. Gorgeous yet goofy Ben Browder and the entire cast make it must-see viewing for any scifi fans.

Farscape Peacekeeper Wars.......2007-03-20

I'm glad they made this movie because where the show was ended and not continued was not a proper ending. Other shows have suffered a bad ending because of being cut-off (Enterprise) but because this movie wraps up a plot line the show was heading toward there is a sense of completion. Its a shame they killed a good character (seems to be a common feature in endings). But because they had so much material due to unfinished business the movie doesn't have as enjoyable a pace as the series often did.

Like watching paint dry.......2006-03-09

You can only suspend your disbelief so much. This movie asks you to throw logic out the window to watch action scenes that are mediocre at best.

Sorry - you will have more fun watching Paint Dry than enjoying this POS movie. Skip it - you will be happier you did.

The Peacekeeper.......2005-07-05

ONe on Dolphs better movies...great action seensas usual...Montel williams ruins the movie...can't act for save his life...Great to add to collection of Lungren movies.

Not Dolph's fault.......2004-10-16

I read some where that Dolph had said something along the lines that they had run out of money and had only half a day or so to film the martial art scenes for the movie. Its hard to criticise Dolph for this one. The script is not very good to start with and Dolph is given very little to try and work with. The second half of this movie which suffers from badly staged action pieces, does not live up to the well staged and enjoyable first half. The plot is an obvious Under Siege rip-off. This one is watchable but Dolph has done better before and in later movies after this one. A better script and more attention to the action set pieces and this could of been a winner.

FANTASTIC MOVIE.......2003-11-20

OK DOLPH LUNDGREN ALWAYS CHOOSES DIRECT TO VIDEO FLICKS BUT THATS OK BECAUSE LETS FACE IT HE CAN ACT NOW THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE THIS IS ONE OF HIS BEST

Review.......2000-08-10

Four stars: two to Sarrazin and two to Sheider. Good plot but mediocre script. This film is proof-positive that actors the caliber of Michael Sarrazin and Roy Sheider can carry a film, even as supporting actors, and make you happy you purchased the ticket!

Almost like Star Wars, but different.......2006-04-19

When I first saw this show, and watched Eclair in action with the robots, I thought 'Oh, it's THAT kind of show.' But I was wrong. Kiddy Grade is simply awesome. The characters are very interesting,ranging from "abilities" controlled and decided by that person's heredity. The storyline is different,too. In star century 0165, the Global Union was born,and to provide impartial mediator's to the various planetary governments of the Global Union, the GOTT (Galactic Organization of Trades and Tariffs) was formed to settle economic disputes amongst the members planets. Existing in the GOTT's shadows are E.S. (Encounter of Shadow) members that serves as the GOTT's primary law enforcement organization. E.S. members are grouped into pairs, usually having different abilities. ES member's Eclair and Lumiere are on the front line, pursuing all manner of criminals and bringing them to justice. For 16-year-old Eclair and 10-year-old Lumiere, Eclair has the "Power" ability,which is used as superhuman speed and strength, while Lumiere's "Puppet" controls over any electrical device. I have not watched the whole series, but this series looks very interesting, and for the extra-lovers fans, there is an image gallery, japanese promotional video (sadly, no subtitles) and original commercials, character profiles and funimation trailers. A must-see for scifi fans.

^_^.......2005-11-21

This series is simply amazing. Although the first disc or two can be a little slow and confusing, the whole thing ties together beautifully. This series has an amazingly inventive storyline, absolutely stunning art, and seems to have the same few reviews putting it down on every single site- note the three low reviews. Cut and pasted (and many with false information) and in the exact same order on at least a dozen websites I've found.

But this story centers around Éclair and Lumière, and takes place in the far future. The two girls are C-Class ES members of the GOTT (Galactic Organization of Trade and Tariffs). The main undercurrent throughout the series is Éclair's lack of memories, and that really takes center stage later on.

You also get to meet many other characters- S-Class members Sinistra and Dextera (a common fan Yaoi pairing) S-Class members A-ou and Un-ou (the same, although not as common) S-Class Alv and Dverger (who saying much about would spoil the whole series) S-Class Tweedledee and Tweedledum (twin brother and sister, the brother is quite obviously in love with his sister, although she rather likes Lumière), C-Class Viola and Cesario (call it Lolita ^_~ Cesario never speaks, and they have a very strong power, but must be touching to use it.) You also meet Armbrust/Armblast, who has a very confusing position, Eclipse (Head of the GOTT), and Eclipse's Secretary Mercredi.

Confused yet? ^_^ Don't worry, you don't meet everyone right away. I'd advise buying the first few discs used, but for safety's sake getting at least 7 and 8 new, as they are by far the best discs in the series- and truly stand out among the best of anime.

Listen to the 1 Star.......2005-09-30

I too bought this Anime after watching the trailer for it and I should have stopped pay attention to it after watching the opening half of the first episode. I was hoping it would get better, though I wasted my time watching the second half. The trailer looked great; well drawn anime, awesome graphics, and cool robots. The equation of a good anime, but the story was so very weak. It wasn't thrilling or electrifying, it was actually rather boring. And don't get me started about the undergarments. In the very first fight, Éclair, jumps up and off a desk, and all you see is her underwear under her very short skirt. And you see it again and again as she kicks all over. I don't know how the story develops after the first episode, but I surely don't care to find out. Don't waiting your time think about buying it, Kiddy Grade just isn't worth it.

Don't even bother!.......2005-05-22

I bought this Anime after watching the Trailer for it and I got rid of it after watching 10minutes. It was just porn. I prefer Yaoi and what do I get? Some chicks throwing kicks around to show their underwear and shots that just zoom in on their underwear or their boobs. Don't ever buy this Anime. It's disguisting and degrading.

Bleh..Not worth buying.......2005-03-11

This Review contains spoilers...Thank you:

The story focuses around two S class agents of the GOTT (Galactic Organization of Trades and Tariffs): Eclair, and Lumiere. Eclair is super fast, strong, generic super hero stuff (though she does have a lipstick whip which is a pretty inventive weapon). Lumiere is a robot/cyborg..whatever and has the ability to hack into computer systems as well as take
control of or disable most electronic devices.

One beef I have with the show is the characters.
Eclair is quick to anger, and reckless. She can also be flashy and a tad annoying.. Coming onto the bridge of an enemy ship to distribute an arrest warrant dressed as pizza delivery girls? What the hell is that? It's not funny, it's not clever, it's just childish.
Lumiere is just the opposite. Calm, quiet, reserved, or as she says mulitple times "elegant." Lumiere also has a penchant for annoyance, as she is always reminding Eclair that "A lady should be more elegant."
Armblast seems to be a rip off of another well dressed hero who also carried around a ridiculously huge metal weapon..cough*Wolfwood*cough.
It also gets repetative when when these two ladies need to phone in for arrest clearance, and their chief says, "Clearance granted, it's your show girls." X-P

Alv and Devrgr are also agents of the GOTT, and team up with E. and L. in the episode "Tight Bind." During the episode a gravity bomb goes of on a deserted prison station and it turns into every woman for herself as Alv and Devrgr hijack Eclair's ship (why are the ships of the good guys' always red?), La Muse and ditch their temporary allies. If the ships AI hadn't turned around to head back, Eclair and Lumiere would be dead. Now I'm all for backstabbing and betrayals in a story. It's there to spice things up, to make you say "Wow I didn't see that coming." or "Aww I really liked that charcter, now he/she's an a**hole" However, having your own team members voluntarily leave you to die, and then to see them as you walk into the office Monday morning...it's just stupid.

I don't know how the story progresses after the first disc, but the first few Episodes made me not want to find out. Rent it if you're curious, but don't waste the $26 - $30 to own it.

The Peacekeeper Wars made up for the very poor ending of the series. It tied up all the loose ends, and it had a good ending. I do wish they had not killed off one of the main characters though for he was my favorite.
This DVD is great to have if you own all of the seasons on DVD as well.
