- DirectorNicholas MeyerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyWith the assistance of the Enterprise crew, Admiral Kirk must stop an old nemesis, Khan Noonien Singh, from using the life-generating Genesis Device as the ultimate weapon.KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN! The best of all Trek movies. Spock's death scene gets me every time.
- DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsChris PineZachary QuintoSimon PeggThe brash James T. Kirk tries to live up to his father's legacy with Mr. Spock keeping him in check as a vengeful Romulan from the future creates black holes to destroy the Federation one planet at a time.The movie that made Trek cool again. The casting (apart from Uhura) is spot on. Probably has the best opening scene of ANY movie of past 5 years.
- DirectorJonathan FrakesStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerThe Borg travel back in time intent on preventing Earth's first contact with an alien species. Captain Picard and his crew pursue them to ensure that Zefram Cochrane makes his maiden flight reaching warp speed.Resistance is futile! The best of the Next Generations movies. Perfect combination of humor and drama. Picard brings out his inner badass to defeat the Borg Queen.
- DirectorLeonard NimoyStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyAdmiral Kirk and his bridge crew risk their careers stealing the decommissioned U.S.S. Enterprise to return to the restricted Genesis Planet to recover Spock's body.The forgot of the old Trek movies. I love this one. I think Christopher Lloyd is the best Klingon villain in the series history. The journey to bring Spock back is interesting and Trekian (that's a word).
- DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsChris PineZachary QuintoZoe SaldanaAfter the crew of the Enterprise find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one-man weapon of mass destruction.On first viewing I loved it more than the 2009 movie. On second viewing, I noticed things that irked me. I wish the villain wasn't Khan. Cumberbatch did the best he could, but he isn't Khan.
- DirectorNicholas MeyerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyOn the eve of retirement, Kirk and McCoy are charged with assassinating the Klingon High Chancellor and imprisoned. The Enterprise crew must help them escape to thwart a conspiracy aimed at sabotaging the last best hope for peace.I like this one. Not much to say about it other than that. A good "real" sendoff for the original cast.
- DirectorDavid CarsonStarsPatrick StewartWilliam ShatnerMalcolm McDowellWith the help of long presumed dead Captain Kirk, Captain Picard must stop a deranged scientist willing to murder on a planetary scale in order to enter a space matrix.I think I would like this movie a lot better if they handled the last 10 minutes of the movie differently. AND WHERE WAS SPOCK (he was offered the "Scotty" role, but declined because they wouldn't let him write his own lines). The ending is rushed and Kirk's death should have been more epic (AND SPOCK SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE, NOT JUST PICARD). All the stuff with Data is hilarious.
- DirectorRobert WiseStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyWhen an alien spacecraft of enormous power is spotted approaching Earth, Admiral James T. Kirk resumes command of the overhauled USS Enterprise in order to intercept it.It's just too damn slow. There is no action. Too much 2001 and not enough Star Wars. The whole Voyager plot is interesting and handled well, but it is just missing something.
- DirectorJonathan FrakesStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerWhen the crew of the Enterprise learn of a Federation conspiracy against the inhabitants of a unique planet, Captain Picard begins an open rebellion.It's Ok. Watchable. It just never feels like a movie. It's like a long episode of the show. Almost every other Trek movie involves the destruction of Earth or some other planet in which billions of people will be killed. This was about 600 immortals who didn't want to move to a different planet. The stakes just weren't there.
- DirectorLeonard NimoyStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyTo save Earth from an alien probe, Admiral James T. Kirk and his fugitive crew go back in time to San Francisco in 1986 to retrieve the only beings who can communicate with it: humpback whales.Oh boy. This one is usually near the top of most people's lists. Granted I have only seen it one time, but it just never felt like Star Trek to me. It felt like a cheap 80s movie ... Although I do love the Chekov interrogation scene.
- DirectorWilliam ShatnerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyCaptain Kirk and his crew must deal with Mr. Spock's long-lost half-brother who hijacks the Enterprise for an obsessive search for God at the center of the galaxy.This movie is not as bad as everyone thinks it is, but i'm not saying that it's good either. Some of the parts are cool like when they have to break out of the brig and take control of the ship. The "meeting God" part is just atrocious.
- DirectorStuart BairdStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerThe Enterprise is diverted to the Romulan homeworld Romulus, supposedly because they want to negotiate a peace treaty. Captain Picard and his crew discover a serious threat to the Federation once Praetor Shinzon plans to attack Earth.Yeah. About this. WHAT? HUH? WHAT WERE THEY THINKING. Nothing about this works. Why would they get Tom Hardy to play a Picard clone? This felt like a Stallone movie at most parts (and a bad one, like Demolition Man). The only thing I can say I liked about it was Data committing the ultimate "human" sacrifice in his final moments.
