Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

zkonedog After the so-so box office totals brought in from Star Trek: Insurrection, as well as an overall downturn in viewership of Star Trek TV shows on the air, the Star Trek franchise heavily promoted "Nemesis" as the film that would keep the franchise alive and kicking. Instead, this horrible film had the exact opposite effect.With "Nemesis", the Star Trek writers/producers tried to emulate the story of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan", where Captain Kirk squares off against hated rival Khan. In this story, Captain Jean-Luc Picard discovers he has a clone who is trying to take over the Romulan High Council. This plot fails for two reasons: First, the tension between Picard and his clone is not nearly what it should be, as the clone is so evil that Picard (and thus the audience) can feel no sympathy towards him. Second, the Romulans are just weak villains. They have never been featured in any previous Star Trek movies, and their appearance in this film does not better that reputation.Also, for the third consecutive movie, the fan-favorite Data character is heavily featured. While this is usually a good thing, the plot surrounding Data seems a bit contrived this time. The "drama" of finding "Data's" severed head...already used in the Next Generation series. A Data clone...same deal. Plus, the end scene (which is supposed to be reminiscent of "Khan's" ending) does not carry with it the emotional punch of Spock's death.To conclude, though the graphics and action scenes in this movie are on par with the other Next Generation movie installments, as well as some character development at the wedding of Riker and Troi, the drama is severely lacking, turning to outright boredom in some spots. If you are a hard-core Star Trek fan who will watch this film no matter what I say, enjoy the slim good moments when you can. If you are just looking for a good sci-fi film, avoid this movie and wait for J.J. Abram's re-boot of the Star Trek franchise in 2009.

Rainey Dawn This movie isn't all that bad. It's not nearly as good as Generations or First Contact but I find it about as good as Insurrection. Similar to Insurrection, this film could have been cut down to the core of the matter at hand and trimmed from it's filler scenes then we would have a TV episode of The Next Generation.Will Riker and Deanna Troy finally get married. There is a new Romulan leader, Shinzon, that claims they want peace with Starfleet but it is a trick. Shinzon needs Picard to survive and it's up to Picard and crew to put an end to this. That about sums up this film.It is Star Trek entertainment that is a pretty good watch... just a bit better than Insurrection in my opinion.7/10

Jack I watched this movie again for the first time since seeing it in the theater more than a decade ago. It holds up quite well. If you're a Star Trek fan, and especially if you're a TNG fan, this movie will sit well with you. It has some interesting plot devices... one of which is what would you be like if your environment growing up was different from the one you experienced? You can judge a criminal for their acts, but what if you were in their shoes? An interesting idea fleshed out nicely in this film. Highly recommended! I grew up with TOS, but TNG is probably my favorite iteration of Star Trek. The cast and writing is top notch. The movie is well acted, well written, and satisfies. I was surprised the TNG movies generally received average reviews. They're great Star Trek movies!

Python Hyena Star Trek: Nemesis (2002): Dir: Stuart Baird / Cast: Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner, Jonathan Frakes, Michael Dorn, LeVar Burton: Tenth film in the franchise and quite successful. "Nemesis" is symbolic of conflict against oneself. It begins at the wedding reception of Commander Riker and Deanna Troi. This is fun but it is not capitalized upon enough. It is as if these subplots were tacked on just to give the characters something to do. Central action involves Romulans claiming to be initiating a peace offering when in fact they are plotting an attack against earth. Very clever with many plot twists and blazing action. Director Stuart Baird creates an entertaining film but it lacks character development. He previously made the mediocre action misfire Executive Decision. Patrick Stewart still holds dignity as Captain Piccard. Brent Spiner as Data demonstrates loyalty and sacrifice. Other roles are flat including Jonathan Frakes and Michael Dorn. Frakes gets hitched but from there that is pretty much his highlight. Dorn as Worf discovers that he has a zit but this is hardly an interesting development for a character of this nature. LeVar Burton plays Geordi La Forge whose identity has him wearing a special device for his sight. This is labeled as the final film in the franchise although we have been fooled with this sort of marketing before. Exquisite effects that celebrates another era in the franchise. Score: 8 / 10
