        The TNG ones were decent, I remember the huge controversy with the first one. The Trekkies were all mad that Kirk had to ask Picard for help. Or was it vice versa? Either way.
        Anything with involving the Borg or Q will be good, as far as I'm concerned.
        The newest ones are fun little movies.

          Liar. That never happened. There was no 5.

          Next you'll try to say they made a 4th Indiana Jones movie.

              The TNG ones are, to paraphrase Sondheim, nice. They're not good, they're not bad, they're just nice.

              Syfy should not be nice. It should be right.

                First Contact was pretty darn good. Generations was OK, but more for the fact it was the first TNG movie and the crossover; the details of it were meh. The other two you can completely ignore, no one seemed to be trying by then.

                For TOS, even good, odd bad. Though the first one could have possibly been better if executed better.

                  up until TNG movies, the odd ones sucked and the even numbers were good. Nemesis ruined that streak.

                    It's hard to hate Nemesis, only because Tom Hardy and Ron Perlman were in it.

                        I thought the first TOS movie was genuinely bad.

                          these movies are just not real due to the lack of a-girls. mookie's means c'mon... they are friggin' smart. and perfect companions for space travel.

                            It was a slap dash attempt to cash in on the nostalgia. That's why the script is so ludicrously bad -- they weren't even trying. Then they realized they had a license to print money and started taking a few things seriously, which is why the Khan script is better than anything since Harlan Ellison*, as well as anything since.

                            * Fun fact: in Ellison's original script, Kirk does not let Edith die, Spock does. Ellison thought Kirk was, at heart, too sentimental to do it. The original script also has a junky because have you read Ellison?

                              Spock died in the film too...test audiences hated it so they added in the way out where he puts his mind inside Bones.
