Star Trek - Insurrection

Summary: Not worth anyone's time
Review: I went into this film expecting live everyone else a good action film, like most of the other Trek fans. But like first contact, the trailer was a bald-face lie hatched by Paramount just to get us into the theatre's door, because there is very little action. It does have a lot of character, but no movement whatsoever. This film is about the Enterprise crew disabaying the prime directive, not interfering in a civilization, and tries to save them from the Federation and bad guys who have found the "fountain of youth". What a joke! I hate to say it, but this is even worse than the Final Frontier! The music is sweet and corny, and everywhere there are children running around and playing in the grass and crap like that. Please do not buy this! there are a lot better Trek movies out there on DVD, and this is not one of them.

Summary: A somewhat sub-par episode in the Trek world
Review: Hello, I have been a huge fan of Star Trek and Star Wars for years and years. Star Trek Insurrection is i believe the ninth movie made. If you have seen earlier episodes of Star Trek and the Next Generation Series, you know that this movie does not live up to the expectations. It has no real plot other then that Captain Picard and some of his crew are on this planet that has some special properties that allow you to live for a long time. Basically an alien race working with the federation is trying to force the natives of the planet so they can collect the life giving force. The reason this film is not that good is the lack of motivation, almost all the previous movies gave reason for future ones to be made, but this one is completely pointless. Also, don't be fooled by the lie that this film is full of action, because its not. If you are expecting hard core battles like in Star Trek II Wrath of Kahn or Star Trek VIII with the Borg, you will be very dissappointed. Finally my last point is, what on earth was paramount thinking when they allowed Jonathon Frakes to direct this movie. Hell, he is the First officer. Why would they allow an ammature direct a movie? In conclusion, Star Trek Fans, its sad to say this but Star Trek is truely done. I don't think any new series or movies are going to come out that will ever come anywhere near the quality of the ones that William Shantner was in.

Summary: How did this insult to "Star Trek" fans happen?
Review: Michael Piller should publicly apologize for everyone to developing the story for this film. It's nothing more than an ill-fated attempt to apologize for all the war-like stuff we were seeing in DS9 at the time of this film's emergence. I was actually offended by this movie, as though Paramount was talking out of both sides of its mouth. Worse yet was the way the advertised this movie as "action-packed," which it most certainly is not. What happened to the drama? This movie doesn't even have a happy ending, it has a sappy ending! The Enterprise and her crew don't have to blow something up every five minutes, not by a long shot. That's not what "Trek" is really about. "Star Trek V" pulled off a much better show, compensating for a weak plot with some great moments between the characters. "Insurrection" offered even little of that, and as far as I'm concerned, we haven't had a real Trek movie since '96.

Summary: good movie
Review: Here is my second installment in my 3 part Star Trek reviews. This is the latest and 9th installment in the popular star trek series. This is a great movie, i don't hink it was quite as good as first contact, but nevertheless it was a great movie. It deals mainly about a small group of people who, 300 years ago , fled from their homeworld to start a better one on a new and deserted planet. So the people from the old world are dying and need the healing power that this new planet produces to save them. So Captain Jean-luc picard of the Enterprise steps in to save the when he believes the Federstion has made a bad mistake by halping the dying race, because the federstion wants to help the dying race move the people off of their planet. great movie i reccommend it.

Summary: How to beat a dead horse.
Review: More of a TV episode than a regular movie, does not offer the moviegoer more that. Another exploitation of the Star Trek theme or how to beat a dead horse. The new Star Trek is minus the old cast and spirit and plus some who cares characters, the new technology and the preaching. Requires patience to watch.

Summary: They Can Do Better Stories then this.
Review: Speaking as a person who feels that Star Trek's future as a series is more at the movies rather then on television, this third film with the Next Generation cast caught between a Starfleet coup to ruin life on a paradise planet is somewhat less then spectacular. One gets the feeling that if these movies got better screen writers, they would make Good Star Trek movies in the process. Even go so far as to say that whatever future Star Trek movies they do make, they feature all new characters in them, while staying true to Gene Roddenberry's vision of an optimistic future.

Summary: Worf with a pimple?
Review: There were too many "cutesy" things in this movie. Riker being shaved by Troi? Trying to play footsey on her couch? Really!! How come Picard never gets the girl? Any female that shows him any attraction he rejects harshly! Maybe Picard has been in space too long. Data singing? This was hard to image him doing.Worf with a pimple? Worf being a warrior would rather kill himself then show this "childish" side of himself. The most absurd part was Riker steering the Enterprise with a "joy stick"! Surely Star Fleet Engineers could come up with something more dignified. A "Nintendo" Enterprise!! What will they think of next?My kids were delighted to think Nintendo would be around in the 24th century!!

Summary: Trek is not dead!!!
Review: Trek at it's best, this movie I thought was very entertaining. It had a good blend of action and comedy, plus had a good plot. I recommend any fan of non-fan who has not seen it, see it. It has some of the best special effects I have ever seen in a movie(except Star Wars episode 1). For an odd film, It is a worthy Star Trek movie.

Summary: The Best Next Gen Trek
Review: "Insurrection" is an uplifting adventure full of romance and humor. In fact it's the best Trek film since Nimoy's Voyage Home.

Summary: THE FUNNIEST "TREK" YET!
Review: This is a great entry in the series! The mixture of comedy, romance, action, and sci-fi make it the best TREK film featuring the crew from THE NEXT GENERATION. The visual effects are more impressive in this film than they were in STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT. The bad guys were more badder than they have been (except for the Borg, Khan, and Chang). An exceptional STAR TREK film. Very well made. Frakes should try directing more films OTHER than STAR TREK. Grade: A+
