This seems more like an extremely mediocre 2-part TV series episode than a big screen movie. The plot was very weak and unoriginal, even going so far as to borrow elements from William Shatner's first Star Trek novel, the Ashes of Eden (which was far superior to this movie). One of my biggest complaints was the comedy-too much, too corny, and ultimately, too stupid. The special effects were good, but there were no truly spectacular sequences to show them off. The brief space battle sequence was unexciting, and even a little too cerebral. Why not just fight a ship the old fashioned way, using phasers and photon torpedoes, not meteor gas or whatever it was. And what happened to the good old leading man fights leading bad guy one on one in the finale? I was waiting and hoping for this, but it never happened. In conclusion, the movie was a mess, and definitely the weakest Trek movie to date (yes, I liked Star Trek V better than this).
