A Pleasant Surprise
24 June 2008
Being a Star Trek fan for many years, this movie I had avoided because I had heard that is was not very good. I caught it in FLIXe the other night and, surprise, found it to be a very enjoyable movie with all the good things about Star Trek in place and done well. The Next Generation crew does a nice job taking on the issue of forced displacement of a race, feels very "Trail of Tears" when they are marching up the mountains.

The series continues to find hot women to play the love interest in Picard (and Kirk before him), You just can't hire a bombshell to play these roles, so you need to find someone who is beautiful, sexy, but a little more mature and Donna Murphy does a nice job at this.

So, maybe not as action packed as "First Contact" but a pretty good film. maybe a real good one for someone who has avoided Trek because it was to sci fi-ish but is willing to give it a try.
