Wing Commander Reviews

| Original Score: F | Sep 7, 2011

Playing up the military angle is the best move, but this and some excellent incidental effects can't completely disguise the shortcomings.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 7, 2010

Excruciatingly earnest yet convictionless.

| Apr 7, 2010

Though the ingredients are potent, their blending here mostly comes off as formulaic, humdrum and sometimes unintentionally laughable.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 22, 2002

Against all odds it succeeds.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 1, 2000

These actors, alas, are at the service of a submoronic script and special effects that look like a video game writ large.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 1, 2000

Things get truly dispiriting when the character dramas recede and the spark provided by Lillard and Holder goes out, leaving us only one incomprehensible battle after another.

| Jan 1, 2000

Though this could be the meat of a good space story, the combat scenes are weak variations of the game's.

As the movie transforms into a video game -- with a faux John Williams score to boot -- the human element turns corny, then laughable.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 1, 2000

Wing Commander is based on a video game and has roughly the same degree of character development. That is all most moviegoers will need to know.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 1, 2000

Wing Commander looks like it was put together by people who couldn't agree on whether or not the year 2564 would be colored with red bulbs and fluorescent cafeteria lights or costumed as if Urban Oufitters had gone to Uranus.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 1, 2000

| Original Score: F | Mar 12, 1999
