Summary: "Star Trek: The Next Generation" goes out with a whimper
Review: The plot of "Star Trek: Nemesis" comes down to three situations. First, and most importantly, Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) discovers that he not only has a clone (Tom Hardy) who was created by the Romulans by raised by the Remuseans, but that the enterprising Shinzon has become Praetor of the Romulan Empire, which has a weapon that can destroy all life on Earth. Second, in an obvious parallel, Data (Brent Spiner) discovers yet another of Dr. Soong's prototype androids, named B-4 (also Spiner). Third, and finally in more ways than one, Commander Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and Counselor Troi (Marina Sirtis) are finally getting married. This 10th Star Trek film, and four in the STNG part of the series, has its moments but is ultimately less than satisfying.Part of the problem is that even before the film's climatic death scene we are already aware that we have another Star Trek death that is not really death scene. Yes, this is certainly more plausible than the first one in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"/"Star Trek III: The Search for Spock," but that it is at the expense of the shock and emotional impact the first time around. Consequently, the big payoff rings hollow, which is never a good sing for a major theatrical release. Another part of the problem is that the cast is so large that few of them have much of value to do. Geordi LaForge (LeVar Burton) has been standing by for several films mainly to ask Data what he is doing so the android can explain, Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) waits for casualties to show up in sick bay, and Worf (Michael Dorn) is at least good for a few laughs with the comments he makes in his cups while everyone is toasting Riker and Troi. As far as the movies go, STNG has boiled down to Picard and Data, and the rest are along for the ride, posing stiffly and formly in the background. That being said, "Nemesis" finally gives Counselor Troi the main supporting role and a couple of scenes when she proves she can give as well as receive. But overall there are two many cast members sitting around with little or nothing to do; compare this with the series finale "All Good Things..." Finally, there are just too many significant gaps in the thinking of the main characters. Picard and his clone think they understand each other as if in the future the nature versus nurture issue has gone the way of safety belts being required on alll chairs on spaceships. Yes, having a clone is creeping. Yes, having your clone serving in a Romulan slave pit is disturbing. But the idea that the result is a younger version of itself was never legitimated by novels/films like "The Boys From Brazil." This is supposed to be the future, but the "science" here is about on par with a 1950s film. If I, who know virtually nothing about science in general or cloning in particular can see the holes in this logic, than Picard's Starfleet Academy training should serve him in much better stead. Now that we are apparently here at the end of the road for "Star Trek: The Next Generation" it might be appropriate to conduct a post mortem and consider the question of why the theatrical films were never as good as any of the two-part episodes of the television series. The short explanation is they went for bigger (e.g., the Borg rewrite human history) rather than better. What is so puzzling is why a creative staff that came up with several solid story lines almost every season for many years could not cut it when it was required to come up with one very good idea every few years. "Star Trek - Nemesis" has the characters of STNG but neither the style nor the substance; what does Picard driving a intergalactic dune buggy have to do with why we loved this television show? Plus, the lighting makes Data's skin look really weird. At least we have the original STNG out on DVD now.

Summary: Star Trek Nemesis
Review: It was truly the best Trek made in the last 10 years. Beside the death of Data, it was filled with action and thank god a good storyline.

Summary: WARNING: SPOILERS LURK AHEAD!
Review: Captian Picard didn't seem to be himself at all, and there's a few hard strives for comedy within the first twenty minutes. The set-up bothers me also though... Why would they want to piece B-4 back together AND give him all of Data's memories after how Lore turned out? I can tell you why, because that's the only way they could kill Data (Yes, Data dies *cries*) at the end and still have his legacy live on in some way. Shinzon and his legion of Remans are obviously inspired by classic vampire literature (Shinzon gave off a distinct Dracula vibe in many of the scenes he was in). No really, look! Shinzon needs Picard's blood to live and he and his ilk are not fond of the light (not to mention a few smaller things that you'd have to see to figure out). I also received the distinct impression of a Weegie Board when Diana was probing the Viceroy's mind for the Scimitar's location. None of this really made Nemesis a bad movie, although I was afraid it was going to be for the first thirty minutes or so. It does have a pretty interesting plot, along with some truly brilliant moments. But with the death of Data and the loss of Ryker and Diana, I fear we are coming to the end of Next Generation.... Perhaps they'll see fit to do a few Voyager movies now, just please, PLEASE NO ENTERPRISE MOVIES!

Summary: Incredible way to finish Next Generation!
Review: First off, let me say that if you are not an avid fan of Star Trek the Next Generation, you will probably be bored to death by this movie. However, if you are, than this is a must see movie. Great special effects, and they do a fantastic job of tying up the loose ends from the series. The movie is more like an extra-long TV episode, but no less enjoyable. For Star Trak fans, I highly recommend this movie.

Summary: Not the best, not the worse either
Review: StarTrek Nemesis is said to be the last film of the Next Generation cast. I think that's a shame because it would be am unworthy ending the series. I liked the film but it could of been better. The whole thing with Picard having a clone was silly, wasn't explained that well how he got cloned either. Date has a brother android that looks just like him and it's not explained too well where he came from either. What the film has going for is the special effects, action and the performances of Patrick Stewart and Brent Spiner. The under-rated StarTrek First Contact is a much better film and the best of the next generation movies. If they couldn't of done better than that they shouldn't of made more Next Generation movies. That should of been the last one.

Summary: The best Next Gen. Film
Review: I avoided this movie at the theater due to poor reviews. Boy, we're they wrong! This film made me feel like I finally had the family back from the TV show. Although not without flaws, this is the best of the Next Gen movies.

Summary: The best Star Trek movie so far!!
Review: I can't imagine why some people were lukewarm about this movie. Not only were the effects great, but it was one of those rare movies where I couldn't predict what was going to happen next. Especially the ending! Wow. Very very highly recommended.

Summary: Star Trek TNG says goodbye
Review: This film is unfairly criticized. I think it stands alone as a wonderful movie, that leaves the viewer with much to think about. True to the Star Trek formula, this movie does a great job of showing us what it is to be human. I cried in this movie.
