Low-Res format ruined it
This (failed) ambitious mix of Sci-Fi and softcore is about what you'd expect: gorgeous young women, generous helpings of gratuitous nudity and simulated sex, softcore soundtrack, so-so acting, a story that tries to engage the viewer, and cheesy VFX. Like most direct-to-video softcore, the sensual scenes bring the story to a screeching halt, so the writer's best intentions somewhat go to waste.All of that said, this film's target audience cares mostly about the nude ladies and the "sex," and anyone who downgrades this film for its Cormanesque style is being disingenuous. The problem with this Surrender Cinema release is the abysmally low resolution. It appears to have been shot on somebody's 1990s era camcorder with no better than 720i resolution. That means that unless you view it on a very small screen there are significant SD artifacts like "edge-tear" and aliasing any time there is movement, such as any kind of nude/"sex" scene. As lovely as the ladies are, the combing effect mars their beauty and detracts from what you paid to see.

Pretty good
The first thing that i'll say about this 1999 release is that it's well-acted. You have to care about that at least a little with these kinds of movies, because they try so hard to be taken at least semi-seriously. This is sort of a soft-core porn knock-off (or maybe "homage" is a better word) of the Star Trek franchise. Our captain for the flight does a rather admirable job in his role. So it's entertaining from that perspective.The plot is pretty much what you'd expect: Three hot alien chicks just want to have sex, with the crew, and with each other. And that's pretty cool, especially since they are nice to look at (although not as hot as I personally would have liked) and have no trouble with doing full frontal.Disappointing that there isn't more explicit nudity (there is a hint of it in two or three different scenes but nothing on par with some of Surrender's other releases). With the decent acting and writing, this had the potential to be great with more explicit nudity. It falls short of that, even though one or two of the sex scenes are pretty darn good.Overall, a fair release and worth a watch...but could have been SO much better with only slight changes.

Trinity of Sexy!
Amber Newman, Taimie Hannum & Brandy Davis in what is probably the sexiest sci fi movie of all time. Brandy can act & has a superb body. Taimie always has 2 very amazing celestial orbs with her. Amber Newman is one of the most gorgeous of all time!

Welcome a-bored.
I bought this DVD, as a few years ago I watched the TV version, and was hoping for some additional material in the Directors' cut that I missed in the TV version. Unfortunately I now know I didn't miss anything, unlike some Surrender titles like Virtual Encounters 2 and Femalien 1&2.The film is ok, but nothing to write home about. I watched this once and sold on at a loss. Also the picture quality is not too great when viewed on LCD TV - it gets a bit distracting after a while.Good for a one time watch, but not one I'd recommend for a collection.

Brandy Davis is great in this movie
Brandy projects star level charisma in her part like that of Charlize Theron or Heather Graham.. and she's gorgeous, too! Otherwise this is an adequate soft-core spoof of Star Trek, complete with parodies of Spock, Khan, engineer Scotty, lazer battles, etc.
