“Thomas Lee” is neither a member of the Director's Guild nor my Freshman English teacher, but in reality is a pseudonym used when the director wants his name taken off a movie, a credit usually reserved for the traditional alias “Alan Smithee”. A good director can sometimes make a weak script work, but when three very different talents are making widely divergent versions of the same film, the results are less than good.
Why all the confusion? Supernova notoriously went through a two-year slog of production hell that ended with three directors removing their names from the credits, massive editorial shifts and several re-shoots that made the original script unrecognizable. Indeed, audiences are thrown into the first action sequence before all of the characters have been introduced, and without a proper title sequence it feels like we came in late and missed something in this jumbled mess.

When my friend and I saw this in the theater, he turned to me within the first ten minutes and said he was happy we were here in time to see the MGM logo on the front of the film or he would have no idea how long the movie had been playing. Further complicating matters, the person that sent the distress call is in possession of an alien object that may be more dangerous than anything else our heroes are currently dealing with, and this raises the question of whether it is safe to return to Earth at all. When most of their fuel is spent trying to escape the gravitational pull of the dying star, the crew must find a way to escape before their ship is torn apart. They make the hyperspace dimension jump with near fatal consequences, as the source of the plea is dangerously close to a black hole.
The deep-space medical rescue vessel Nightingale-229 receives a distress signal from a reportedly abandoned mining operation and the staff must decide if the risks are worth answering the call.
