In the Beginning" is a great Primer for the Babylon 5 Series. Filmed when the plot lines have all been decided, during the final season of production using flashbacks from all 5 seasons as well as new material, this movie brings clarity and fills open plot gaps in the series. This is a great addition to anyone interested in viewing the Babylon 5 series universe. Although it does have more than a few spoilers for the new fan, it makes the series much more understanding to viewers of the Babylon 5 Series. I highly recommend the Babylon 5 Series to all Space Opera science fiction fans. It is one of the top science fiction television series ever produced, with 5 excellent seasons and each episode shows through either main plot or subplots, the developing nature of the Babylon 5 universe and clarifies the series. (Because the same producer / writer's vision develops all episodes, the shows characters and their actions are congruent with the plot from season to season.) Babylon 5 is worth watching! "The Gathering" is the Pilot Movie of the series. The writer and director have yet to define the main character aspects and there is plot and character discrepancy between the pilot and the series. With that said, "The Gathering" is still decent space opera stuff, but not overly engaging. It is interesting, but it is not a necessity for watching or understanding the Babylon 5 series. 2 1/2 StarsRead full review

I love the storytelling but do keep in mind that the use of 1990’s vintage CGI does restrain the visuals aspect. But I still love the show, great characters and well told.
