STAR TREK 7: GENERATIONS(1994):
Special Collector's Edition
While not happy with the end of the original crew's
voyages, I will admit that this was a pretty good start-up
for the Next Generation crew to take the helm of the
franchise! After all, Kirk, Spock and crew were starting
to show their ages! The two captains work well with
each other and we get at least a fleeting visit from
Chekov and Scotty in their last role reprisals! The
whole Next Gen crew is here, and the story is
engaging! A
A review from Amazon.com:
There were only two ways for "classic Trek" cast
members to appear in a movie with the cast of
Star Trek: The Next Generation: either Capt. Kirk
and his contemporaries would have to be very,
very old, or there would be some time travel involved
in the plot. Since geriatric heroes aren't very exciting
(despite a welcomed cameo appearance by the aged
Dr. McCoy), Star Trek: Generations unites Capt. Kirk
(William Shatner) and Capt. Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick
Stewart) in a time-jumping race to stop a madman's
quest for heavenly contentment. When a mysterious
energy coil called the Nexus nearly destroys the newly
christened U.S.S. Enterprise-B, the just-retired Capt.
Kirk is lost and presumed dead. But he's actually been
happily trapped in the timeless purgatory of the
Nexus--an idyllic state of being described by the
mystical Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) as "pure joy."
Picard must convince Kirk to leave this artificial
comfort zone and confront Dr. Soran (Malcolm
McDowell), the madman who will threaten billions
of lives to be reunited with the addictive pleasure
of the Nexus. With subplots involving the android
Data's unpredictable "emotion chip" and the spectacular
crash-landing of the starship Enterprise, this crossover
movie not only satisfied Trek fans, but it also gave
them something they'd never had to confront before:
the heroic and truly final death of a beloved Star Trek
character. Passing the torch to the Next Generation
with dignity and entertaining adventure, the movie
isn't going to please everyone with its somewhat
hokey plot, but it still ranks as a worthy big-screen
launch for Picard and his stalwart crew. --Jeff Shannon
