[QUOTE="Ghostwind, post: 547493, member: 3060"] Finally got to see the movie today. It wasn't bad in my opinion. Not great, mind you, but not bad either. If you think of it as more of a higher budget episode rather than a movie, it came across ok. All in all, it felt like more of a family reunion. Everyone you know is there and they are all comfortable with that warm fuzzy feeling of being together. Kinda like ST:TMP was before you realized how really bad the story was. There were a few plotholes big enough to drive a truck through, but I did enjoy the space combat sequence. I think they did manage to pull of the whole Data/B4 storyline without being too cheesy. I do agree that there should have been some mention of Lore somewhere in the script. The whole 'clone' thing is a tired plotline. Likewise, the corridor combat was a bit hokey (grenades anyone?). Apparently Sovereign class ships no longer have corridor forcefields that can be activated which would have trapped the Remans (remember how often we saw that trick being used during the series run?). All in all, they did manage to provide enough to maintain continuity that was established during the series' run. I read the script about a month ago and there were a couple of great scenes that never made it to the final cut that would have filled in a couple of those holes. Maybe we'll get lucky and have a director's cut or special edition release right out of the gate rather than two years down the road. I hope the next movie puts the 'epic' back into the Star Trek genre. It's been missing for some time. I also hope that we get to see a movie where the Enterprise, for once, doesn't get her butt kicked from here to eternity. It's getting a bit old. Whatever happened to being the near indestructible jewel of the Fleet? Oh well, time to wait another three years or so and see what Paramount comes up with... [/QUOTE]
