Summary: real slow and less action then the rest of the movies
Review: THIS MOVIE IS TO SLOW AND DRAGGED OUT,NOT ENOUGH ACTION COMPAIRED TO THE REST OF THE TITLE MOVIES.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good movie!
Review: If you like ST, you'll like insurrection. Sure, there are some annoying parts (especially the joystick!). It still was good. I still like FC better. It makes a good two part episode. Not the best ST movie in the world, but I still enjoyed it. It is funny too!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Paramount,how about some extras please!
Review: This is a good movie although the special effects are disappointing,especially the last shot of the Enterprise in the film which has a plastic look to it.Paramount,give us more extras please,such as-deleted scenes,how the special effects were done,interviews,the music soundtrack,production notes.For once Paramount,give fans their moneys worth.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great movie & director, Jonathan Frakes did a great job.
Review: The story was true to the Star Trek created by the great the bird of the galaxy. The plight of the underdog which Star Trek does so well, was continued with great success to Frakes weaving of the story web. It had just enough humor and suspense to keep the viewer in galactic heaven.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: TRANSCENDS ITS LIMITATIONS
Review: INSURRECTION is like a very good episode of STAR TREK TNG. There are a few moments when I found myself wincing at the humour, but, they didn't taint my overall enjoyment of the film. There are so many delights contained within it. First, the threat isn't to Earth. It's not a threat against "us". It's a threat against a "them" who are being viewed as an "it" by those who would have the secret of their longevity. The character development is nowhere near as ham-handed as in the previous two TNG film outings. It's blessedly subtle. The special effects are almost totally breathtaking, and, for my money, my favorite aspect of INSURRECTION is the believability of The Enterprise as a ship and not just a set. There are subtle tricks involved, esp. the use of realistically over-lapping dialogue in the scenes on board the ship. This tells an intelligent and not overly-preachy story while satisfying a Trek fan's demands for Riker-rants, Data-silliness, Geordi's-humanity and Picard, well, Picard being the type of character to make one consider adopting a What-Would-Picard-Do? outlook on life. Expect a few groans and suspensions of disbelief and you'll probably enjoy this more than you'd expect...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not as good as First Contact, but great anyway!
Review: When I heard what the budget was, I figured it would have to be a great movie. While it is a very good movie, it's not as good as First Contact. Not too surprising - First Contact was a hard movie to follow up to.While it seemed to go a rather slowly at times, the action sequences and overall storyline make up for the slow parts. A must have for Star Trek fans, but I think that others will enjoy this movie as well!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Didn't like the Federation cast in the role of villain
Review: Gene Roddenberry had a vision of humanity that had overcome its worst tendencies, which is what makes the original, and to some extent the Next Generation, so appealing. When the writers of this movie decided that the villain should be someone approved of by the Federation, they subtley betrayed Gene's principles. Whether they created a good movie with that betrayal, judge for yourself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funniest Star Trek Movie Ever!
Review: The creators of this film have finally taken some time to give the charicters some more humanity. It is not all the typical Star Trek serious and down to business attitude. Enjoyed it thouroughly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The 3rd Best Trek movie ever!
Review: Star Trek: Insurrection is the third best movie ever in the Star Trek series. I really liked how it was about something small rather than, "Captain, it's on a direct heading for Earth!". This is definately a good buy for a Trekker/Trekkie and still a good movie for the non-trek-person. One final word of warning -- Do not buy this movie if you Star Trek.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not just for Star Trek fans.
Review: First of all let me begin by saying that if you are looking for a grand, epic, larger-than-life, high adventure space-drama, then this is not the movie to see. If you're looking for an entertaining science fiction movie featuring both romance and humor, then this is the one to see. As a Star Trek: NG fan, I persuaded friends and family to go and see it with me. Everyone loved it.

It has comedy: the tongue-in-cheek moments with Data, Worf going through puberty, and the interplay among the characters. The funniest Star Trek by far.

It has romance: Picard and the mysterious woman he meets and Riker and Troi finally get together! What more could you ask for?

It does have a slow pace at the beginning (like that of a TV episode) but again you shouldn't be expecting a grand space-drama. Every scene will affect you in some way. It will make you laugh, touch your heart (I.e. - When Geordi sees his first sunrise.), or leave you wondering about the mysterious, fountain-of-youth planet and the aliens who want to destroy it. The drama slowly builds and the mystery slowly reveals itself until it escalates into a very satisfying ending. Add in great special effects and superb acting all around, and this a great movie. A movie everyone can enjoy.
