Galaxy Quest
A comedy of galactic proportions.
For four years, the courageous crew of the NSEA Protector — Commander Peter Quincy Taggart, Lieutenant Tawny Madison, and Doctor Lazarus — set off on a thrilling and often dangerous mission in space ... until their series was cancelled! Now, twenty years later, aliens under attack have mistaken the Galaxy Quest television transmissions for "historical documents" and beam up the crew of has-been actors to save the universe. With no script, no director, and no clue, the actors must turn in the performances of their lives.

Nothing woke. This is a great parody on Star Trek that still hold up pretty well. The VFX still mostly look good, the acting is good the jokes are funny. It's even better if you are familiar with the Star Trek shows. The writing is decent if a little corny at times. I'm probably rating this a little high but this is one I saw when it came out and still watch it on a regular basis.

Where no comedy has gone before
Pretty well-known Star Trek parody, nothing to add there.
Rickman, Allen and Shalhoub are all criminally under-rated actors, and rock-solid in this. The rest of the cast is very competent, but in far less demanding roles,
What sets this movie aside, in my opinion, of the slew of parodies of the times (back when we still had comedies), is that it makes fun of the source material without making light of it.
Roddenberry, self-awoved socialist scoundrel that he was, knew that the whole point of heroic stories is to breed more heroism, and that mankind's destiny is to look up and rise.
Galaxy Quest follows the standard hero's journey for they who pretend, but is also a clever meta-commentary on fiction, fandom, and those who choose to believe.
Plus a good movie.

Must see, especially for Trekies
No woke. It's a parody. The allusions to the nonsensical aspects of Star Trek and other early SciFi TV are nonstop. Tim Allen and the rest of the cast are at their absolute best. Some of this movie may be lost on younger generations who didn't experience the early days of SciFi TV.
