There were only two ways for "classic Trek" cast members to appear in a movie with the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation: either Capt. Kirk and his contemporaries would have to be very, very old, or there would be some time travel involved in the plot. Since geriatric heroes aren't very exciting (despite a welcomed cameo appearance by the aged Dr. McCoy), Star Trek: Generations unites Capt. Kirk (William Shatner) and Capt. Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) in a time-jumping race to stop a madman's quest for heavenly contentment. When a mysterious energy coil called the Nexus nearly destroys the newly christened U.S.S. Enterprise-B, the just-retired Capt. Kirk is lost and presumed dead. But he's actually been happily trapped in the timeless purgatory of the Nexus--an idyllic state of being described by the mystical Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) as "pure joy." Picard must convince Kirk to leave this artificial comfort zone and confront Dr. Soran (Malcolm McDowell), the madman who will threaten billions of lives to be reunited with the addictive pleasure of the Nexus. With subplots involving the android Data's unpredictable "emotion chip" and the spectacular crash-landing of the starship Enterprise, this crossover movie not only satisfied Trek fans, but it also gave them something they'd never had to confront before: the heroic and truly final death of a beloved Star Trek character. Passing the torch to the Next Generation with dignity and entertaining adventure, the movie isn't going to please everyone with its somewhat hokey plot, but it still ranks as a worthy big-screen launch for Picard and his stalwart crew. --Jeff Shannon

It may be that I am in the very minority of people if I state that Star Trek Generations is far and away the best of the Next Gen films and one of the best of the overall series. I may be in the minority to talk about its philosophical themes that are all over the place in all the right places. It may be I'm the only person who sees this film as a philosophy piece like Blade Runner. But that's what I see it as. And though this film is definitely not as well-directed or well-made as the aforementioned ... Read More

My second favorite of the movies behind Khan. Seeing the original characters meshed with the new is great. Wish the beginning of the movie when Scotty, Capt. Kirk and Chekov were together would have been longer.

The Good Things
*Lots of good action and special effects.
*Filming style is good.
*Storyline is okay; it makes sense to me, but is mostly a good excuse to unite Kirk with Picard. It also incorporates a few important parts of the "Star Trek" universe, such as Data getting his emotion chip installed.
*Characters are good. Picard, Kirk, and Data are all great. I love Malcom McDowell as the bad guy.
*Writing is pretty good. Lots of comedy and drama.
*Some interesting ... Read More

The movie's script is obnoxious, cheesy, uninspired, insipid, mundane, overwrought with unnecessary technical jargon and bogged down by ridiculously oversized plotholes. The best use for this movie is as a doorstop.
