Our Review:
What can I say, Babylon 5: The Road Home is pretty darn cool. My husband has been a huge fan of the original Babylon 5 since its debut in 1994 and as a new couple, we would watch it together, so for that reason, it will always be a special series for us. In this animated movie, we get to see all of our series favorites again as John tries to find his way home.
The story is good, really good and the voice actors really brought their A-game, especially those newer actors who had big shoes to fill. They did a nice job and it was super respectful.
The storyline left an open door for even more stories, so I hope they decide to make another animated movie because I think this one will be received well.
