Only TNG movie that feels like a TNG MOVIE


I know a lot people think this movie is terrible, I don't think it's very good either but it had the most potential of all 4 TNG movies. For one the characters actually act like they did on the show, no one really acts too out of character, except maybe Data but the emotion chip explains that.

Production wise the Movie looks like a movie, it could have used a few more months of production to modify the sets a bit more and sort out the inconsistent uniforms, but otherwise it looks like a TNG Movie should. Shot by a great cinematographer.

The story is pretty weak , with weak villains and a horribly shoe-horned in crash and battle sequence. But it's also the movie that had the most potential to be big in scope had they taken the time to flesh out the script and waited a year to make the movie.

Everyone loves First Contact but for me while I enjoy watching the movie, it isn't a very good TNG movie, everyone acts out of character, the movie is fairly small in scope, and it feels like a first time director trying to emulate Aliens.

It's why I sometimes think that Star Trek belongs on the small screen. Not every episode has to be all out action.
