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

The elegance of the story is enhanced by the sure direction of Jonathan Frakes, who also plays Commander William Riker.

A smashingly exciting sci-fi adventure that ranks among the very best in the long-running Paramount franchise.

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.

First Contact is no grab bag of camp gewgaws; it stands proud and apart, accessible even to the Trek-deficient. This old Star, it seems, has a lot of life in it.
