Movie: CAPRICA
2009, Directed by Jeffrey Reiner
As Bender Bending Rodriguez would say, “Hey baby, wanna kill all humans?”
If the introductory film is any indication, CAPRICA will hopefully address many unanswered questions from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, such as “How and when did the Cylons become sentient?” and “Where did the Cylons’ idea of “one god” come from?” Hopefully it will continue to study quandaries of ethnicity and class, as well. The casting and performances are excellent, especially Esai Morales as Joseph Adama (father of the future Commander William Adama), and Alessandra Torresani as the whip-smart Zoe Greystone. Very much looking forward to the January 2010 launch of the series on the Syphilis Network, um, SyFy.
