3 days ago · Star Trek: First Contact (1996)93%. #2. Critics Consensus: While fans of the series will surely appreciate it, First Contact is exciting, engaging, and visually appealing enough to entertain Star Trek novices. Synopsis: The Enterprise and its crew follow a Borg ship through a time warp to prevent the Borg from taking over...

I must politely disagree with my colleague Chris Cabin on the merits of Star Trek Into Darkness. While it’s not as bad on a second viewing, it’s still suffering the growing pains of not knowing what Star Trekreally is. That’s the conundrum with the J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek movies: if you want to take them as simple action movies, they’re serviceable ...
Someone give William Shatner a participation trophy. Watching Star Trek V, it’s like Shatner saw the lighthearted success of Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and wanted to redo it for his directorial contribution to the franchise. Unfortunately, Star Trek V is constantly silly and nonsensical rather than fun and upbeat. It starts out from a promising ...
On the one hand, I can respect that the Star Trek: The Next Generation movies were in a difficult position. Unlike the TOS movies, which were set in the 23rd century and didn’t have to worry about how their events would affect the TV shows, TNG was right in the prime of other Trek on television even though their own show had ended. Rather than be a...
Again, it starts out from an interesting place—nature versus nurture, and who would Picard be if his life had been one of torment rather than one in Starfleet? Unfortunately, the film is so hard up to make its villain, Shinzon (Tom Hardy), unequivocally evil that there’s no dramatic pull. It’s not simply enough for Picard to see a dark mirror that ...
This film seems to exist so it can pass a torch that never needed passing. Looking back on Star Trek: Generations, it’s a story that seems more suited to fan fiction than something that actually serves Star Trek of any generation. The original series cast had already gotten a great send-off with Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, and it’s a bi...
The biggest problem with The Motion Picture is that it lost Star Trek’s sense of identity. The film is trying to ape 2001: A Space Odyssey, and so it thinks that what the audience wants it a slow, meditative motion picture, and while there’s nothing inherently wrong with that, it loses Trek’s greatest strength. It’s the opposite end of the spectrum...
I both kind of love and kind of dislike Star Trek Beyond. On the one hand, I knew I had a fun time while I was watching it. It felt like it was embracing classic Trek in a way we hadn’t really seen since Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. But that being said, it’s almost impossible to remember this movie because beyond showing its love of clas...
J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek is a movie I really enjoyed when I first saw, but it has not held up well on repeat viewings. On a surface level, it’s really shiny and fun, and Abrams has the wherewithal to give his Trekan interesting new aesthetic (lens flares and shaky camera aside). It’s a fun compromise between the iconography of the original (they use ...
Star Trek: First Contact is an odd sort of movie. It’s the first time the Next Generation crew is really on their own, and they’re pulling from one of the strongest elements they ever contributed to Star Trek lore, the Borg. It’s a good setup and it also rewards those who saw the Next Generationseries while not being so esoteric that it would alien...
This is where on this list that Star Trek actually starts to feel like Star Trek. One of the great things The Original Series did was to tell narratives that reflected real-world tensions. Out of all of the Star Trek movies, The Undiscovered Countryis the only one to mirror real world events. In this case, the script cleverly draws a parallel to th...
Jul 20, 2016 · Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) 52%. With a full decade between it and the end of the original series, you might think 1979’s Star Trek: The Motion Picture would have plenty of time to work out all the kinks – but alas, as the movie’s dismal Tomatometer (and decades of fan gags about “ The Motionless Picture “) can attest, all of ...
Feb 17, 2024 · Star Trek: Nemesis was the fourth and final film starring the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation. It was released in Christmas 2002, received poor reviews, and ranks as the lowest-grossing Star Trek movie ever. Although it stars a young Tom Hardy as the evil Shinzon, the screenplay by John Logan, who was nominated for an Oscar for Gladiator ...

- Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan. The film that ensured Star Trek's future. A major regrouping and rethinking following The Motion Picture, it's thrilling, breathlessly action-packed, and emotionally hefty.
- Star Trek: First Contact. With the Borg the stand-out villains of The Next Generation – they even assimilated Picard in a fantastic end-of-season cliffhanger – their progression to a big-screen face-off was almost inevitable.
- Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. The near-disaster of Star Trek V almost killed the franchise, so VI was returned to the safe hands of Nicholas Meyer, who'd previously snatched The Wrath Of Khan from the jaws of The Motion Picture.
- Star Trek (2009) Star Trek's big comeback was a reboot and an origin story, re-casting the Original Series crew and telling the story of their first mission aboard the Enterprise, not long out of Star Fleet Academy.
