Very best movie i ever watch
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
You see, Picard never actually left the Ribbon is my theory. Since it was Picard's ideal to save the planet and the Enterprise etc. - that's exactly what the Ribbon gave him. It's never really explained how they leave the Ribbon; they're on horseback on second they trot into a flash of light and... then the next scene they're on the Planet with Soren (where happened to the horses. It fits that Kirk (also still being in the Ribbon) needs to die in Picard's universe because, as long as Picard believes Kirk is dead, there is no clash or paradox. Kirk probably immediately went back to chopping wood after he 'died' on Veridian 3. Everything that happens afterword - Borg, etc. is all Picard's illusion in the Ribbon. There's a free book idea for you... just give me 10%
I agree that this is far from the best of the Star Trek movies, but it has an interesting premise, the acting is good, and it gives us a cinematic transition from one era to another. Once Einstein gave us the business of time warping and being able to slip into alternate universes and revisit previous places, even paralleling the the current characters, it left everything wide open. I don't know what the big deal is with Jean Luc Picard crying. He's not a robot. Kirk was really a pretty one dimensional character with very little emotional baggage. That's great. Not everyone is Kirk nor should they be. Ultimately, we have a group of very creative people putting together a threat to the universe, a puzzle that must be solved. Through that aforementioned fabric, two heroes emerge and solve things. I have to get a little political here. I am so tired of people who are so wrapped up in these things that they actually get hostile. It's a review of a movie. Get out of the house more.
This is another highly entertaining Star Trek film that brings together two captains of the Starship Enterprise face to face: Captain Kirk and Captain Picard. An El-Aurian scientist Dr. Tolian Soran is a madman and quickly becomes the nemesis of Captain Picard of the 24th century. What he seeks is the Nexus Ribbon and it's up to Captain Picard and crew to stop him but Picard needs the help of a man who's been dead around 80 years, that man is Captain Kirk. Note: The El-Aurian race are known for living a long time. A great film. I really enjoyed how they tied both generations together but my only wish is there was more interaction between both generations captains and with both crews. 9/10
The feel is of an extended episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. It doesn't really have that 'big movie' feel or the special effects to go with it.Fortunately, it makes that up in part by the pure thrill of including the original Star Trek cast, culminating in the meeting of captains Kirk and Picard, William Shatner and Patrick Stewart. Both are excellent actors that bring superb gravitas to their roles.The rest of the Next Generation crew don't get much of a look in, with the exception of Data who is the subject of a halfhearted subplot where he gets given an 'emotion chip'. Cue lots of getting overwhelmed by emotions and commenting on it continually.The bad guy Soren, played by Malcolm McDowell is OK. He brings an intense, even psychotic focus to the character. But I'd like to have seen more from the Klingons that he falls in with.In summary, if you're a Star Trek fan you'll enjoy this. But it's not a movie that will be of interest to a wider audience.
