Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Although the "rebooted" movie series is not over (yet) this still remains my best-loved Star Trek Movie to date, but I also have to include the 2 part episode "Best of Both Worlds", as a runner-up from Star Trek:TNG TV series. What is so fascinating about the Borg? Certainly their "Frankensteinish" appearance and Borg Queen which has also appeared with "7 of 9" in "Voyager" as well. (Actress Alice Krige won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar as the Borg Queen in the movie.) She apparently likes mating with humans and Data as well. Capt. Picard still has a link with the Borg Queen as she almost turns Data into a real human being (like Pinocchio) and that's the 2 illogical things about this film. Borgs try to rewrite history so that Dr. Cochran never launches the first warp-drive prototype and meets The Vulcan spaceship, hence the title "First Contact" with aliens for Mankind. Lots of hand-to-hand combat on 21th Century Earth and 24th Century Enterprise. As always, it is almost self-destructed as in other films. Capt.Picard is compared to "Capt. Ahab pursuing Moby Dick" with the Borg as the prey, in this case. The film manages to cover all the details including Geordi's enhanced new eyes (from Borg technology) to the Holodeck "Speakeasy". Very few, if any, "errors" in the plot. Most of the computer generated ships and effects look quite real considering that this is from 1996. So well scanned that I waited years before buying a disc copy. A great space-walk on the hull of the ship and the usual great interiors. The "curse of the red shirts" continues as all of the assimilated humans are new "recruits". As I have mentioned before, why is there never a reference for the creation of The Borg, which happened when "Commander Decker "joined" with an electronic entity in "Star Trek:The Motion Picture"?

There are so many good things about this movie, this is one of the best sci-fi movies ever. There are no slow moments, the dialogue and scenes are just right. The Borg are the creepiest, best villain in the Star Trek universe. The Borg queen was excellent.The anti-hero Cochrain was a nice different spin. Filling in the series plot gaps of where warp technology was discovered was an excellent device. Showing Captain Picard with weaknesses added depth. The acting was excellent. The ending makes you pump your fist.I have nothing but good things to say about this film.
