The extravagant makeup and special effects are actually unobtrusive because they're demanded by the pleasantly formulaic story, whose conflicts--and broad, innocuous political allegory -- justify the heartwarming resolution.
Strikes a deft balance of predictable heroics and quirky humor.
Fun for most folks, heaven for Trekkers.
More of the the same-old -same-old.
The latest and ninth installment in that line, Star Trek: Insurrection, lacks the adrenalized oomph of its predecessor, but no adventure of the Starship Enterprise is without its gee-whiz affability.
An appealing millennial throwback to the hippie dream that is part and parcel of Star Trek's utopian ethos.
Like a long episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Feels like an overly long, slightly dull episode from the series.
This is the sweetest of the four motion pictures, with even the Captain feeling a youthful invigoration and romantic yearnings. (Blu-ray Edition)
...the lightest and most traditional of the movies, for good or bad.
It's like one of those not-quite-favorite episodes from the series that you might enjoy watching again if it happens to air during a marathon, but it comes nowhere near achieving the best that Star Trek can do..."
It's back to boring basics for the Gene Roddenberry franchise.
It's an interesting story, more accessible to non-Trekkers than previous entries.
Genial, well-crafted tribute to the moral values Gene Roddenberry instilled in his sci-fi series, that suffers from a recurring flaw in the franchise, a lack of real threat and danger.
Despite the usual strained stabs at topical social significance, Frakes maintains a brisk pace, staging the battle scenes with panache and undercutting the absurd techno gibberish with crass but leavening humour.
Most of the television episodes have been smarter.
This is really just a pretty good episode of the series, which is not really a bad thing.
Not one of the most successful of the "Star Trek" films, it's always nice to see the cast reunite.
This is a good deal more than just another sci-fi movie.
ends up feeling like an elongated TV episode
