My feelings towards A Call to Arms, 4 January 1999
Author: John English (john@davidenglish.com) from Greensboro, USA

I've been watching Babylon 5 since it started years ago, and think its one of the best shows in American history. As for A call to the arms, it did the show justice in the sense that unlike some of the other TV movies done over the past years, it was a lot of fun, had a good plot, and a good script. I highly recommend this to anyone out there.
