  • Editorial Review:
    In their second big screen adventure, the year is 2373 and the crew of the Enterprise-E has learned the Borg has returned. Because of Captain Picard's past experiences with the Borg, Starfleet has ordered the Enterprise to stay out of the fight. Realizing too much is at stake, Picard disobeys orders and takes the Enterprise to Earth. His knowledge of Borg technology leads the Federation fleet to victory, but a Borg sphere escapes and opens a temporal vortex. The Enterprise pursues and travels back to April 4, 2063; the day before the first warp flight.

    Description of Star Trek - First Contact (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition):
    Even-numbered Star Trek movies tend to be better, and First Contact (#8 in the popular movie series) is no exception--an intelligently handled plot involving the galaxy-conquering Borg and their attempt to invade Earth's past, alter history, and "assimilate" the entire human race. Time travel, a dazzling new Enterprise, and capable direction by Next Generation alumnus Jonathan Frakes makes this one rank with the best of the bunch. Capt. Picard (Patrick Stewart) and his able crew travel back in time to Earth in the year 2063, where they hope to ensure that the inventor of warp drive (played by James Cromwell) will successfully carry out his pioneering warp-drive flight and precipitate Earth's "first contact" with an alien race. A seductive Borg queen (Alice Krige) holds Lt. Data (Brent Spiner) hostage in an effort to sabotage the Federation's preservation of history, and the captive android finds himself tempted by the queen's tantalizing sins of the flesh! Sharply conceived to fit snugly into the burgeoning Star Trek chronology, First Contact leads to a surprise revelation that marks an important historical chapter in the ongoing mission "to boldly go where no one has gone before." --Jeff Shannon

    Star Trek - First Contact (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition) Reviews:
    Star Trek: First Contact: The Best TNG Movie. 4 Star Review
    2009-07-19 - Star Trek: First Contact, is in my opinion, the best "next generation" movie out of the four TNG movies, by far, and one of the best overall star trek movies. It has everything: Good acting, good story, action, suspense, best star trek villians: the borg. One of the best things about the movie is that you will enjoy it if your a star trek fan or not. Can't wait for this movie to be released on blu-ray.

    Excellent movie 5 Star Review
    2009-07-06 - I'll be honest--I'm not a good movie reviewer. Out of the hundreds of films I've seen, I can count on one hand those that I felt aren't good. Motion pictures are an art form, created with many hands to achieve a product that, I believe, is completely subjective.

    I'll also go ahead and say that I have always been an avid fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation, so it follows that I will obviously like their feature films. I'm biased, in other words, so stop reading now if you want an objective review.

    Despite how well the movie was received by critics, how much money it made at the box office's opening weekend, or any other quantitative method for computing a film's success, I have to say that I enjoyed this movie immensely. Sure, the destruction of the borg ship in the beginning seemed a little too easily handled and the subsequent time travel to the past (and back to the future at the end) also seemed a little too conveniently done. Especially given how difficult it has been in Star Trek's past to time travel, one is left to wonder why, after discovering how easy it is by the end of this film, Starfleet doesn't use it all the time, pun intended.

    Despite those two plot conveniences, this really is a good action-adventure. Not very much technobabble, for those who hate it in the series and earlier films, and it's also quite accessible for anyone new to the franchise as a whole. One might argue that watching the episodes "The Best of Both Worlds, Parts I & II" are necessary before seeing this film, but I disagree. Just as seeing "Space Seed" (ST:TOS) isn't necessary before watching "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," it does, admittedly, offer more flavor and backstory.

    Bottom line: Excellent action-adventure movie. Not much meat or drama, but a good romp for anyone who just wants to have a fun time.

    Mindless Action 2 Star Review
    2009-05-15 - What is wrong with today's audience? Mindless action flicks like First Contact and Star Trek (2009) are eaten up like nothing else. Save your money and watch the first four Star Trek movies.

    Great movie, crappy DVD 5 Star Review
    2009-05-09 - First Contact isn't just a good Star Trek movie, but it's an awesome movie period. Unfortunately, this version of the movie doesn't have any sort of special feature to speak of, and the menus seem really phoned in. If you're just looking to pick up the movie to watch every once in a while, as I was, then go for it. If you're a true Trekkie trying to complete his or her collection, you might be able to find a collector's edition somewhere else.

    (Non-trekkie rating) The best Trek movie ever, better than The Wrath of Khan 5 Star Review
    2009-03-21 - The special effects are awesome, the music is stirring and next to TNG season 5 episode 25 "The Inner Light", this is my favorite piece of Star Trek story telling. I like it better than even Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan. I had to write this non trekkie review to counter the nerdie trekkies one star ratings. Nerds! Get a life! They will probably rate the new take on the original Star Trek a one also! GEEEEEEEKZ!!!Go suck on a light-sabre! Even though "Trek" is a possibility over "Wars", Technology will never make it to that level "Galaxy Questers" lol! LOOZERS!
