While on a survey mission, Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise stumble on a conspiracy originating high up the Starfleet chain of command that involves a distressing plan of ethnic cleansing. On a remote planet, a small, peaceful race of human-like beings called the Ba'ku seems to be immune to the ravages of aging. Head bad-guy F. Murray Abraham leads another race for which exposure the planet's radiation is the only cure for an advanced state of degeneration, and, using clandestine Starfleet connections, arranges to wipe out the Ba'ku unless the Enterprise has anything to say about it.

Reviews for Star Trek: Insurrection
You don’t need to be a Trekkie to enjoy the trip, as long as you’re young enough at heart to enjoy adventure wherever you find it.
The film lost points for executing the much-vaunted Riker manuever using a bad Microsoft force feedback joystick.
