Critic Reviews

Kenneth Turan

Familiarity and continuity are what the success of this series has always been about. We've been here before, and we like the neighborhood. Read full review

Michael Wilmington

This is a better movie than the vacuous "Insurrection," thanks largely to a sympathetic screenwriter, longtime "Trek" fanatic John Logan ("Gladiator"), and a crew (headed by Patrick Stewart's Capt. Jean-Luc Picard and Brent Spiner's android Data) determined to go out in glory. Read full review

James Berardinelli

The venerable series is looking outmoded and outdated. Media saturation and age have taken their toll. Read full review

Stephen Holden

An amiably klutzy affair whose warm, fuzzy heart emits intermittent bleats from the sleeve of its gleaming spacesuit. Read full review

Mick LaSalle

Fails to engage. Read full review

Roger Ebert

Star Trek is over for me. I've been looking at these stories for half a halftime, and, let's face it, they're out of gas. Read full review

Michael O'Sullivan

An offering so endearingly lame it seems to have missed the past 10 years' worth of special-effects breakthroughs. Read full review

NEMESIS is a pure delight for fans and non-fans. This film is filled with great acting performances by Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Tom Hardy as the evil villain Praetor Shinzon.

This film is filled with great acting performances by Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Tom Hardy as the evil villain Praetor Shinzon. We for the first time in the Star Trek universe get to explore the Romulan Senate, political structure, the twin world Remus and see for the first time the Remans. While there are great action sequences the main heart of NEMESIS is Shinzons struggle for his identity over Picard. This is a must see for fans of philosophical dramas as well as those who love science fiction. A must see!… Expand

A Wonderful movie, I totally disagree with the reviews above. In no way was this movie predictable, the ending fit well but manythings could have happened with in the last 10 minutes that you just didn't know which one it was going to be. The only thing predictable about this movie isA Wonderful movie, I totally disagree with the reviews above. In no way was this movie predictable, the ending fit well but manythings could have happened with in the last 10 minutes that you just didn't know which one it was going to be. The only thing predictable about this movie is that ...... Although the movie does not throw in any events from the tv series, the story moves well from event to event. I was amazed at the resemblance of the android b-4 and data. I was waiting for someone to say he lookd just like data's brother from the tv series (who's name i have forgotten). This is the movie making makeup that goes along with most movies. Not everyone has seen the episoeds and this is generally the best way to keep things rolling with a new audience. Being a fan of star trek, and not the other star.... star something moive, I liked this film. I did the best i could to not throw in any spoilers so get to the movies and see how the end of a generation starts your weekend.… Expand

Excellent movie, and a satisfying end to the Next Generation stories. I am now and probably always will be baffled by the negative critical response to this one. It's not quite "Wrath of Khan," but I put it just a little behind "First Contact" as one of the great Trek movies.

this movie is decent but there are a lot of problems in it. Let's start at the beginning where we see two of the Next Generation grew getting married. I won't say witch two character are getting married because I do not wish to spoil parts of the movie. Of course if you've seen a of TNG thethis movie is decent but there are a lot of problems in it. Let's start at the beginning where we see two of the Next Generation grew getting married. I won't say witch two character are getting married because I do not wish to spoil parts of the movie. Of course if you've seen a of TNG the two that are getting will not be a surprise. however this event has no importance in the plot what so ever. Then before they can settle down they get reading of android being on a nearby planet which begins a sup-plot for data since he has an android feels a connection with the other android that they find. this is one of the good parts movie because we get to see data evolve as character. Now let's address the main villain Shinzon. He is a great villain to be last one for the TNG cast to face. The only real problem with him is that the way he goes about accomplishing his goal is confusing. Hell at one point he take time out of his plan to mind rape Troi, which does nothing for his goal. another problem is if your new to star trek you will not be able to understand most of what's going on. In conclusion if your new to star trek stay away from this film, however if your a fan of TNG then you might want give it watch.… Expand

Here you can see that the TNG crew is getting a little tired and stale. It was better than Insurrection, but not by much. I did find the premise interesting but it's execution felt a little underwhelming and flat.

This film, like its predecessor, never surpasses the middleweight, with an uninteresting and forgettable script, something tiresome special effects and CGI and actors that do no more than comply with the minimum that is demanded to them. Stewart is the most outstanding actor, but he is not particularly brilliant in his participation, as also Brent Spiner. Perhaps its not the fault of these actors but the absolutely basic script and the undemanding direction of Stuart Baird. Anyway, this phase of the film franchise "Star Trek" ended without glory, but also without great shame.… Expand

Nemesis was so bad and juvenile that I cringed during the showing. The dialogue and acting was a complete joke. Patrick Stewart must be puking after wathcing his own performance in this DREK? Gene has to be turning over in his grave with Capt. Kirk probably grateful that he is already in Nemesis was so bad and juvenile that I cringed during the showing.

Kirk probably grateful that he is already in his. Even the writing for Data has been done before in earlier ST movies but with Mr. Spock. What were the screenwriters thinking of?... It is time for all ST fans to abandon ship! Just terrible.… Expand
