it is untreklike in someways, but still a good movie. definitely better than insurrection. it does tie off some loose ends from the series.

All I have to say is that the odd and even theory is now defunct.... You would almost think that Lucas was directing the movie....

Bah.... And the sound track sounds like it was written by the people who do the entertainment tonight music...

One Last thing.... Patrick Steward must have thought he was in Exclabur again...

Rating The big bagel.

I am very disappointed. Very un star trek like movie....
Oh well Two towers is out on wed.

Tesco - Did you see the same movie I did? I thought it was quite enjoyable and the changes refreshing, especially with the score. You must admit that space battle was exceptional. You sound like some of the people at the TrekBBS - what the heck do you guys want?

You've got to admit the battle scene was exceptional.

Worse than Insurrection? You're nuts.

i liked the way they tried to pull stuff from the series into this. Like they did with StarTrek 6 TOS. the battle scenes were impressive. I was shocked to see Deanna Troy actually play an important roll in the movie.

War makes for strange allies.
The Enterprise definitely did not look like a peaceful exploration ship in this movie. to bad it didnt have the Spinal Mount from the series finally.

We didn't have time to drive 30 minutes to see it at one of the big theatres in a big town. But I will see it this weekend!

Similar situation here... I was going to see it tonight too, but something urgent came up and I was busy all night, and wasn't able to go.

What's this movie with the 'hot chick'? Maybe I'll go see that too after I see Nemesis.

OK, tomorrow is Nemesis, and this time nothing is going to stop me!

My report: I enjoyed the movie, it was good, better than Insurrection, but...I found it lacking (somehow) in a way I can't really describe. The space battle was VERY cool, however, and I would recommend the movie. Maybe someone can help me identify what I thought was missing. REALLY looking forward to Two Towers next Wednesday!

Here is a message for those who haven't seen it:

Do not be swayed by a lot of the negative nitpicks and criticisms you might have read on different websites. See the movie for yourself and enjoy it! If you go into the movie looking for every nitpick, you won't have a good time because you'll be too busy tearing it down.

The only I can say that is lacking is the sense of a real ending. Star Trek 2,3,4, and 6 all had real endings. Star Trek 1 was kind of just there. Shatner didn't have the cash (and never will thank god) to for ST5. Generations felt more like a TNG episodes. First Contact was watered down from the original scripts. Insurrection was an attempt at comedy like ST4 - What happen, I dunno....

To me, ST8 doesn't seem like it ends. There is no real threat of an ending like in ST2 or 6.
