The New Men was something out a 1930 Buck Roger’s novel.
Dialog was was at time odd and slow. Maddox was weird. The Maddox love interest was unneeded and for military people like me something no good ship captain would do. The Victory AI was frankly just nonsense. If the ship had a AI why did it need the former Captain who was a flawed character. They never ask the AI if the ship had any food on board? Who knows it might had survival freeze dried food it purchased after listening to commercials about the end times.
