The geek exodus from Star Trek will continue with this middling movie, a cheapo space battle that has all the cool allure of a disco-dancing Dad.

Reviews for Star Trek: Nemesis
Top CriticA thinly plotted, anonymously directed film.
05/19/08
The outcome is as professionally crafted as ever, but the material feels learnt by rote.
06/24/06
Top CriticA movie that blandly goes where too many Star Trek pictures have gone before.
11/02/04
Top CriticIt doesn’t deliver anything new to the series, and even fans might find parts distinctly slow, but it finally hits most of the right buttons.
08/01/03
Top CriticHardy's pout and baldie glare are high-quality stage-trained British Hollywood fiendishness and, like the Borg Queen, he seems to have taken his fashion tips from Clive Barker's Cenobites.
02/04/03
This will test fan loyalty to destruction.
01/06/03
Top Critic'How many more voyages can this limping but dearly-loved franchise survive?'
01/03/03
A cheapo space battle that has all the cool allure of a disco-dancing Dad.
12/25/02
Top CriticIt simply doesn't have the sharp inventiveness and insight we usually associate with the franchise.
12/23/02
A movie that blandly goes where too many Star Trek pictures have gone before.

It's a shame The Next Generation crew went out on this flat note.
05/20/09
Without an intriguing adversary for Capt. Jean-Luc Picard and crew, it's all for naught.

Even though the special effects are as well executed as ever, the story doesn’t excite or even allow us to really believe the premise.
10/18/08
Reasonably entertaining if utterly familiar.
05/19/08
Disappointing.
07/14/07
Tinkers around with an intriguing premise but with little creative facility for dialogue or structure...[splits] the difference between fans and neophytes, impressing neither.
