| Rating |  | | Date | August 04, 2005 | | Summary | Better than "Nemesis" | Content
 | I think that this movie had better writing, acting, and directing than "Nemesis". You can tell that Star Trek was starting to falter when this movie came out. |

| Star Trek: Insurrection my not be the best Star Trek movie made but it is definitely not the worst (can you say Star Trek V: The Final Frontier). As for as the story goes it is a great story and it definitely has a lot of humor, which it always a good thing. So if you love Star Trek in any form buy this movie. |

| When Paramount released the Director's Edition of "Star Trek: The Motion Picture," they showed an interest in giving fans a truly special and well crafted DVD. However, since II, they've gotten chintzier with each release. Now, Insurrection is packaged in a completely asinine case that literally has the two discs touching one another! It's bad enough that, editorially speaking, the Trek DVDs have gotten weaker with each release, but can't they at least continue to ship them in packages that promote the physical protection of the discs inside? |

| It was a nice change of pace to have another comedic Star Trek movie, in the spirit of Star Trek IV. The special features were impressive, especially the deleted scenes. I'm also glad that they included the featurette from the original dvd release, which was the only sepcial feature on the first dvd. Typically, when a superior dvd is released, any special features from the original release are excluded. |
| Rating | | | Date | July 08, 2005 | | Summary | Bland | Content
| Although I consider this to be the worst of the Next Generation movies, I believe I'm giving it the same rating I gave First Contact, which I think is the best Next Generation movie.
If this is true, then all of the Next Generation movies are pretty much the same. Indeed, I feel they are. They're all on par with what I would call an "average" episode of the series. For instance, I would call the episode Symbiosis average. This movie is like Symbiosis, except longer. I would give Symbiosis 3.5 stars, but I would give Insurrection 3, just because Insurrection is longer than it needs to be.
The film isn't bad. I can't really identify anything bad about it. It's plot isn't bad or forgettable, the acting isn't bad, the atmosphere isn't bad. Nothing is bad. Everything just seems bland. I don't know why I didn't like it, but to me it just didn't stand out. I guess I was spoiled by some of the great episodes of the series that involve things like shifting time periods and dimensions. |
