Riverworld (2003)
A relic

I started to watch and concluded this was a cheap 70s version of the books. It has all the features of that era: clunky filming
clunky fight scenes
stilted dialogue
stereotypical, one-dimensional characters, particularly Nero being the baddie with a posh British accent
instant technology without the mechanisms to produce it (I'm looking at you, lathe-turned decorative supports on the paddle-steamer and perfectly-synched cogs I'm its engine room)
non-stop violins in the background
I was astounded when I found out it's 2003. When you consider LOTR Return of the King, Pirates of the Caribbean and Terminator 3 all came out the same year...
