Summary: Greatest Star Trek Movie of all time!!
Review: This film is a spectacular work of art. The cast and crew blend together in ways that most films can only dream of like Star Wars Episodes one and two, which were the worst movies I have seen in my lifetime. Anyways this film is a must for anyone who likes the science-fiction genre.

Summary: Great Flick-- No Bad Actors Here
Review: Absolutely wonderful-- Great sequel to the Next Gen episodes: The best of Both Worlds Parts I-II!! Jamie Cromwell, Alice Krige, and Alfre Woodard send out their best as the Co-Stars in this film. The borg come back to Earth for another round of play against the Federation starship with Captain Jean-Luc Picard in command (Patrick Stewart). Brent Spiner as Lt. Cmdr. Data and Stewart are the main roles in this film. Stewart battles the Borg Queen (Krige) in his mind and Spiner battles Krige in the physical state as she tempts him with flesh and blood-- his dream of endeavoring to become more human. This film proves that the even-numbered Star Trek films are the best. (Star Trek II, IV, VI, First Contact, and hopefully upcoming X- Nemesis)

Summary: Good Display Case, Bad Movie.
Review: never mind the movie, it is clearly a ripoff between Star Wars and Back to the Future, but the display case is good looking and can be used to keep a new DVD with a better movie on it.You would be better off seeing a better first contact movie like 2001; A Space Odyssey.

Summary: Live Long and Prosper
Review: It would not be right for me to review a Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG) movie without first making a disclaimer: I am very bias. I love TNG, and it would be almost impossible for them to make a movie that I wouldn't absolutely love. That being said, I also believe that Star Trek: First Contact is, hands down, much better than the previous TNG movie. After being affiliated with the TNG cast and crew for almost a decade, Jonathan Frakes knows how to direct the cast and provide us with a movie that is thouroughly enjoyable. This movie introduces us to the Borg Queen, the order behind the chaos. The TNG series never hinted toward a queen, or that, in a sense, there is a leader to the scourge drones of the galaxy. But after watching Alice Krige portray the Borg Queen, you'll want to stand up and beg to be assimilated into her collective. There is little in Star Trek: First Contact that requires you to be familiar with the TV series, other than knowing that at one time Captain Picard had been assimilated into the Borg as they tried to take over Earth. But the movie does a good job with explaining that to you, along with anything else you need to know. A good movie with great casting. The string of even numbered Star Trek movies being the best is still intact (true Trekkies will know what that means).

Summary: Awesome DVD, OK film. Five-Star worthy.
Review: Star Trek First Contact, as a film.
Two is a lucky number. The second TNG film is nothing short of the second fim with the original series cast. Very cinematic, with a score that's out of this world! The Borg could very well be the best enemy next to Khan and his Supermen! Director Jonathan Frakes had the winning formula, put it all together, and the final product flowed nicely. Star Trek First Contact, as a Trekker.
I can't digest it as a whole. The Enterprise E, more time travel, and Data getting the most out of the emotion chip are true highlights of the film. James Cromwell and Afre Woodard are the best 21st century characters I've seen. But...
How does Picard go from a sensitive man in the TNG episode [I, Borg] to the Terminator, hell bent on revenge?!? And how is it that through numerous TNG episodes, no queen is mentioned, or even thought of; yet it exists now in First Contact!? And it's recussitating Data? I dunno, I just dunno. Star Trek First Contact, the DVD.
Two trailers. Some behind the scenes footage. Remastered score. Beautiful visual transition. All in one DVD. If it hasn't won my full praise in any other category, First Contact wins it here. Bottom Line - Buy it. Own it. Keep it. Worth it.

Summary: Best of the Star Trek movies
Review: I was especially impressed by Alice Krige's Borg Queen, a mixture of seduction, repulsiveness (her head is removable),
contempt, cruelty and sadism. Nearly everyone else gives good
performances, too. Jean Luc Picard is crazed with hate and the
desire for revenge against the Borg (since he was once assimilated by them), and is indeed Captain Ahab trying to destroy the whale, even at the cost of his ship, and himself. The Borg soldiers, as usual, are scary. Some good action scenes, and all around, a pretty good movie. The best of the series, I think.

Summary: Best Trek movie yet? Hell yes
Review: What a great movie. Finally a Trek movie that has a worth while enemy: the borg, and this time their back, and they are VICIOUS! Although I prefer the Federation (ships especially) over the Borg, the Borg are one of the races that I see fit to actually cause damage to the Federation (the Romulans and species 8472 being the other 2 good enemy races). One part of the movie (the assualt against the Borg cube) is one of the best, most famous space battles. Unfortunatly, it's fairly short, once the Enterprise E comes in and kicks some BOOTY (yeah!). Then the Enterprise is sent back through time to the time of, you guessed it, first contact. The rest of the action in this movie relys mostly on in-ship combat, as well as an outstanding outer hull battle where Picard, Worf, and Lt. Hawk engage the Borg on the deflector array on the outer hull of the ship. That was a big highlight! Anyway, the movie has the great start, the great ending, and leaves you hanging, ready for the next Trek movie. Get this, now.

Summary: Best of TNG flicks
Review: So far, this is the best of the three Next Generation films. (I'm really looking forward to Nemesis, though.) The best parts of any Trek film are when you see the characters stressed to their limits, and the usually cool Picard gets really [angry] in this one. The extra-vehicular fight with magnetic boots is very slick. The bad thing about it is that they seem to have little regard for continuity with previous Trek lore. The story completely contradicts the book Strangers in the Sky, the excellent Giant Book about humanity's first contact with the Vulcans. The whole idea of the Borg Queen undermines the idea of the soulless unified menace presented by the Borg. As for Zephram Cochrane, yes, he was mentioned way back in the old series. But the scenes with him are rather corny. You don't get any sense of the time period whatsoever. Anyway, if you are at all into Trek, you should get this one.

Summary: Arguably the best of the series
Review: Time travel is a subject that is far too common in the Star Trek universe, when I first found out that time travel would be a focus of this movie I was worried that it would [NOT BE GOOD]. Thankfully this movie turned out to be the best entry in the series. The character of Picard finally showed a ruthless dark side that was in many ways as terrifying as the Borg he was so desperate to destroy. It's side of Picard that is rarely seen and very welcome. Picard has usually been the disciplined, yet kind hearted captain, and my favorite of the various Trek captains, so to see that he can be more than annoyed, to see that he can genuinely hate and hate with such an intense passion as to kill the Borg as ruthlessly as he did was a suprise, not out of character, mind you, just something that is rarely seen. The development of Data was nice as well. Data's child like innocence seemed destroyed in this film by the disturbing Borg Queen, who was played very well. The acting in this movie is stellar, which is not abnormal for the TNG crew as thet are all great actors. And to see the sides of these characters that is so rarely seen, thier dark sides, made this movie fantastic, even if the time travel bit is getting old, especially in Trek.

Summary: This movie could be called "Best of Both Worlds Part 2"
Review: One of the best Next Gen Movies to hit the Silver Screen; this one takes the mystery of the Borg a step further. The producers throw out the hive mind concept and introduce the Borg Queen. It's Trek like it should be. Not all the actors get equal screen time but it a rollercoster ride from start to finish. If you like the galactic space battle scenes this one is for you.
