They were pretty good.

About the only thing that I didn't like was their 'Star Trek'-style need to invent a totally new element (Trillium) to keep the engines running. And it had to be a highly explosive one, of course, but also rendered completely inert by radiation exposure, and the Cylons want it too! It could have been worse I guess, they could have discovered that it was a jewel worn in the necklace of a princess.

TRIVIA: This episode is the first adaptation of an episode from the classic 'Battlestar Galactica' series. "The Hand of God" served as the finale of the original series, and it also involved Adama taking the fight to the Cylons. In it they used a captured Cylon Raider. They have already captured a Cylon Raider in this series but they didn't use it.
