Another parasite on the glory of Star Wars. George Lucas even sued them. Could've been the Star Trek guys, though.

It started out all right. Earthlings are trying on some alien race that we've been at war with for a long time. But it's a trap, we're attacked by alien ships. The Earth fleet is defeated, some of the planets destroyed. Battlestar Galactica managed to escape and now it sails through space in search of Earth-like planets.

Perhaps you know that there is such a series. Because the reboot of this movie as a TV series was in the '00s. Well then in 1978 Universal Studios conceived a series that would combine Star Trek and Star Wars and launched it in the series, but it quickly became clear that it was too expensive. So from the first three series decided to slap together a movie that would kill two birds with one stone - to advertise the series and at the box office to raise money for further filming. And it came out miserable.

First of all, the movie clearly shows that it is three series, and poorly related to each other. Secondly, all the hallmarks of the series for teenagers - not funny jokes, flat characters, little logic, a lot of shooting and sometimes very cheaply made scenes, clearly filmed in the studio and with improvised materials. This was cute in Star Trek, given the timing of the series, but it feels too dated for a late 70s movie.
