release year: 1998
genre: Star Trek
viewing setting: theater, 12/24/98
what I expected: no idea
what I got: another Star Trek movie high on characterization and morals and a bit above-average in action
synopsis: Captain Picard and crew must stop a secret alliance that conspires to take control of a powerful planet.
impressions: I'm not really into Star Trek movies, but this one was fairly entertaining. It was just tough to get all the little jokes, since I haven't seen all the episodes.
acting: Fine in all cases. These movies don't usually suffer from bad acting.
final word: Good for what it is: a two-hour Star Trek episode.
rating: C
