Kirk join forces to defeat an obsessed El Aurian physicist who will stop at nothing to rejoin the Nexus. Genre: Science Fiction Rating: PG Release Date: 10-APR-2007 Media Type: DVD Amazon.com: There were only two ways for "classic Trek" cast members to appear in a movie with the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation: either Capt. Kirk and his contemporaries would have to be very, very old, or there would be some time travel involved in the plot. Since geriatric heroes aren't very exciting (despite a welcomed cameo appearance by the aged Dr. McCoy), Star Trek: Generations unites Capt. Kirk (William Shatner) and Capt. Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) in a time-jumping race to stop a madman's quest for heavenly contentment. When a mysterious energy coil called the Nexus nearly destroys the newly christened U.S.S. Enterprise-B, the just-retired Capt. Kirk is lost and presumed dead. But he's actually been happily trapped in the timeless purgatory of the Nexus--an idyllic state of being described by the mystical Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) as "pure joy." Picard must convince Kirk to leave this artificial comfort zone and confront Dr. Soran (Malcolm McDowell), the madman who will threaten billions of lives to be reunited with the addictive pleasure of the Nexus. With subplots involving the android Data's unpredictable "emotion chip" and the spectacular crash-landing of the starship Enterprise, this crossover movie not only satisfied Trek fans, but it also gave them something they'd never had to confront before: the heroic and truly final death of a beloved Star Trek character. Passing the torch to the Next Generation with dignity and entertaining adventure, the movie isn't going to please everyone with its somewhat hokey plot, but it still ranks as a worthy big-screen launch for Picard and his stalwart crew. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - a true fan would buy this :)if you like the next generation you'll want to own this. Very cool way to see the crew extend the stories past the season 7 eppisode. Rating:  - Could Have Been Great, But UnderachievedMuch like the first Star Trek film, "Star Trek Generations" could have been great, but ultimately failed to create the high drama and emotional character development that fans of the series crave. The idea of Captains Kirk and Picard interacting in one movie seemed like box office dynamite, but did not live up to the billing. The basic plot of this film has the "Next Generation" Enterprise crew investigating a strange astral phenomena in which people can live out their greatest fantasies. ...

However for the 5-6 bucks you are about to pay for it then yes it's worth it. It was a movie that should have never went to theraters but, been on a tv. It might as well been a two part eps with a bigger budget. Granted I like the movie and bought it on amazon and if you like TNG you'll like this film. Rating: - A Forgettable Chapter in the Star Trek SeriesFirst, I would just like to say that I'm not a big fan of any other Star Trek series other than the original series. I've barely watched Star Trek: The Next Generation, and knowing that this was really a Next Generation film, I really wasn't expecting to warm up to the "new" cast too easily. The fact is, the things that I didn't like about this film really didn't involve much of the cast. Basically, this film wasn't bad, but it wasn't that good. Simply put, it just didn't do much for me. To be honest, the ... Read More |
