Review of Star Trek: First Contact (1996) by Ncc1701D N — 05 Feb 2012

A wonderful gift of a movie for this fan of "Star Trek: The Next Generation". Directed, written, and acted smoothly and confidently, featuring the cast from the TV series classy as ever and two perfectly chosen 'guest stars' making significant comedic and dramatic moments extra special.

Exciting, imaginative, thoughtful, funny, and warmhearted like the best episodes of the series, while also bigger and better in terms of music, make-up, production design, and special effects.

I've tried to carefully read and consider criticisms of this movie because I think maybe I'm too generous in my praise, but my affection for it is implacable. I can't help but love every minute of it. Resistance is futile.
