Star Trek films
|
1. The Undiscovered Country (By far the best Trek movie... hands down. Valks is correct here.)
2. The Voyage Home 3. Wrath of Khan 4. First Contact 5. Insurrection 6. Nemesis (it kinda sucks, but has redeeming qualities) That's my top 6. As for the others... they don't deserve a place on a "best Trek movies" list. (Why?) The Search for Spock (dumb) Star Trek: The Motion Picture (long, drawn out, pointless, and boring) The Final Frontier (dumb) Generations (the captains escape the nexus by getting on their horses and deciding to "leap back to reality" on their horses-- so weak... also dumb) Star Trek (not Star Trek) Star Trek Into Darkness (not Star Trek) Star Trek Beyond (not Star Trek)

Welcome Back Your top four are my real top four in regard to enjoyment on first watch. I let Kahn rise higher because I want to like it more than I did.

My favourite is definitely The Voyage Home, or as Boru put it, 'the one with the whales'. The other films all just kind blend into each other for me such that I can't really say how many I've seen or distinguish them much from regular episodes. The Voyage Home stands out for me for the whole interaction with modern(ish) day Earth, like when Spock's on a bus and deals with an annoying passenger with his stereo on too loud, etc. There's just a lot of cool little moments like that in this film, I can't put my finger on why they're so appealing, but they are quite rare, generally, in films.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

The Undiscovered Country (By far the best Trek movie... hands down. Valks is correct here.) Why would you put the worst of the (genuine) Star Trek films in your top six? Nemesis is Wrath of Khan without any of the understanding of the franchise, panache, attention to detail, good writing, competent directing, buyin from the actors, cinematography or anything else that made Wrath of Khan head and shoulders above every other movie in the franchise. I'll tell you a story about Nemesis, they were due to have a big ass space dog-fight at the end, Romulan navy versus Federation navy, but they didn't have the budget in the end. They'd spent way too much money on stuff that was superfluous to the plot that in the end, they had to jettison their set-piece climax to the plot for Brent Spiner doing a Superman impression and a pensioner beating up a ship composed of "the greatest fighters in the galaxy" while only picking up one superficial wound. The only good thing about Nemesis is that it didn't kill Tom Hardy's career.
