I definately was one of those people who sat around scratching my head when I heard that Starbuck was going to be a female in the new BSG. I was a doubter, and I was proven wrong.
By a combination of great writing and great skill, Katee has taken the role of Starbuck and run with it. She has the same cavalier attitude that Dirk Benedict had in the original BSG (sans the womanizing), and then some. Her character is an interesting blend of courage, confidence and emotion and she portrays that excellently.
She's a great young actress that probably has a pretty good future ahead of her if she plays her cards right. I look forward to continuing to see her in BSG and in her projects after.

Peter Galagher has a long list of credits that have spanned many different genres. Most recently he is best-known for his portrayal of Sandy Cohen on The O.C. Not only does Peter play a great character, who is possibly one of the coolest dads you'll find on television, but he is perfect for the role. The part calls for not just intense drama, but also frequent comedy (which he has to have a good sense of humor since they occasionally make fun of his distinctive eyebrows), authority and the occasional bit of singing, which allows Peter to put his diverse background to use.

I was first introduced to Edward James Olmos in school when for class we watched him play Jaime Escalante in Stand and Deliver. I definately enjoyed his work in that movie as he delievered a moving, commanding presence (as he has done in much of his work). From their I saw him in other movies such as the cult-classic Blade Runner, and in 1997's Selena. In many ways, I feel that his performance in Selena outshined that of the movie's star, Jennifer Lopez. Olmos seems to have a knack for playing characters that are in positions of authority, mentorship or inspiration. I have greatly enjoyed his portrayal of Commander Adama on Battlestar Galactica. His commanding presence is a crucial factor to the series and he plays his part with his usual flawless skill and conviction. Indeed, it feels as if the role was custom made with him in mind and suits him perfectly.
Even if you haven't seen Olmos' work, you have to admire this man for his humanitarian efforts. Some may not agree with his politics at times, like when he was arrested during the protest of a Naval bomb testing site in 2000, but still his compassion and love of his people and those in need is unwaivering. He has taken steps to further the position of Latino artists by founding Latino Public Broadcasting in 1998. He as also served as an international advocate and spokesperson for organizations such as UNICEF, Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, and Aids Awareness Foundation. He is a champion of the Latino people and a champion of human rights.

OleYeller2113 must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could OleYeller2113 possibly have for not rating a single film?
