Star Trek: First Contact Reviews

Meaningful and muscular, this may have been be the peak of Star Trek in its day.

| Dec 27, 2024

Star Trek: First Contact is not merely a great Star Trek film. This is a great film, period.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Sep 4, 2023

remains one of the high points in the overall Trek film franchise, an engaging and suspenseful melding of science fiction, horror, and the kind of high drama that comes close to earning all the Moby Dick references

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 19, 2023

Far and away the finest of the TNG crop.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Apr 8, 2023

Here, the TNG cast gets to show off their longstanding chemistry and further develop their characters.

| Apr 5, 2023

The storytelling is tight, the style loose and limber, and it moves with great confidence and speed; it caught me up in the first shot and never let me down.

| Original Score: A | Sep 1, 2022

Star Trek fans will find that same style and unique form of storytelling that they’ve come to expect from the franchise.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 25, 2022

If you've never watched anything Star Trek before, First Contact is a very accessible film and highly recommended.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 6, 2022

The best cinematic outing featuring the Next Generation cast, one that found a great story to tell featuring the Borg, one of the franchise's greatest antagonists. (25th anniversary)

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 1, 2021

This is why we go to Star Trek: for a tomorrow of promise and possibility and stories that lift us from the muck of what we are to the summit of what we might learn to be.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 17, 2021

The dialogue has improved and the story elements are more in tune with the show, but there's a wealth of unrealized potential and an equal amount of underdeveloped concepts.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Sep 24, 2020

If you carry the Star Trek gene, you'll be camped on this already.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 11, 2020

At once hopeful and dark, First Contact is a rousing space opera with terrific characterisation, performances, and surprisingly well-aged visual effects.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 31, 2020

It's clear immediately that filmmaker Jonathan Frakes isn't looking to deliver just another episode of the 온라인카지노추천 series here...

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 22, 2020

First Contact just works. It works as a rousing chapter in the Star Trek saga, and to a lesser extent it works as mainstream entertainment

| Original Score: A- | Apr 12, 2019

It's easily one of the best in the series -- the best, in fact, since Leonard Nimoy and the old Enterprise crew saved the whales in "Star Trek IV."

| Apr 26, 2018

Not just the best of the Next Generation movies, but one of the best of the entire franchise.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jan 1, 2016

If the film itself is a little bit generic, more of a popcorn sci-fi action film than a faithful adaptation of the characters from the series, that's probably all to the good.

| Original Score: 7/10 | May 31, 2013

In zooming out from Picard's glinty eyeball, this eighth feature film from the Trek factory displays a zippy new energy and a sleek, confident style fully independent of its predecessors.

| Original Score: B+ | Sep 7, 2011

The problem with most of the Next Generation Star Trek movies is that they feel like extended episodes of the television show. First Contact is the one time that it really feels like they made a Movie, with a capital M.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 9, 2010
