Critic Reviews

Star Trek Generations has enough verve, imagination and familiarity to satisfy three decades' worth of Trekkers raised on several incarnations of the television skein.

-Leonard KladyFull Review

At least the special effects and outer space vistas are more handsome than usual.

-Jonathan RosenbaumFull Review

Generations is predictably flabby and impenetrable in places, but it has enough pomp, spectacle and high-tech small talk to keep the franchise afloat.

-Peter M. NicholsFull Review

A rich and absorbing saga.

-Desson ThomsonFull Review

Mostly, Generations spends its running length searching for, and never completely finding, its niche.

-James BerardinelliFull Review

A flawed but funky adventure involving a time warp known as the Nexus.

-Rita KempleyFull Review

Here is a movie so concerned with in-jokes and updates for Trekkers that it can barely tear itself away long enough to tell a story.

-Roger EbertFull Review

The meeting of Patrick Stewart's Jean Luc Picard and William Shatner's James T. Kirk is worth the price of admission or video rental: it's the clash of the titans, Shakespeare meets the Sixties.

-Lucy Mohl

From the opening shot of a champagne bottle floating in space to the pulsating ribbon of an engulfing Nexus, the film's images dazzled me.

-Betty Jo TuckerFull Review

Doesn't work as a goodbye to Kirk or as a hello to Picard.

-Scott NashFull Review

Star Trek: Generations suffers from the feeling that it is only a bigger budgeted episode of the television show, one that fails to use the full potential of the cinematic medium.

-Steve BiodrowskiFull Review

The seventh Trek extravaganza emerges as a disappointment, slightly better than the inept Star Trek V but markedly inferior to Parts II and VI.

-Full Review

I had hoped Generations would rescue Star Trek from its pervasive dullness, but somehow things have gotten even more boring

-Josh LarsenFull Review

a little stiff but still good

-Stefan Birgir Stefansson

It's nice to see Kirk one last time.

-Full Review

The series' dullest instalment.

-Full Review

I could think of two dozen "Next Generation" episodes that are a lot better than this flick.

-Scott Weinberg

Rewards long-time fans but contains basic flaws likely to trouble general audiences.

-Forrest Hartman

Devoted Trekkers will have to see it to keep abreast of the ships' logs, but Saturday night at the flicks fun-seekers are apt to concur this one only fires on stun.

-Angie ErrigoFull Review

This entry isn't particularly strong, but it isn't terribly weak, either -- it's probably the best of the "odd number" Trek movies ever made

-Christopher NullFull Review

Shatner is godly ( and he gets to say "Dillweed"!), but he deserved a better sendoff from Star Trek than this.

-Luke Y. Thompson

Disappointing big-screen debut for Picard's gang

-Jon Niccum

Both a dismal farewell to the old crew and a dull introduction to the new.

-Brian Mckay

So so attempt to combine two generations of Star Trek crews.

-Dan Lybarger

It would have, however, been nice if Generations would have gone beyond the scope of the television series to deliver something a bit more substantial.

-Neil Martin

A successful entry in the series, and a darn good film on its own.

-Brant BingamonFull Review

A superb sci-fi morality play about the vibrancies of love and work.

-Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatFull Review

...tries too self consciously to connect the old crew to the newer one and never quite makes a smooth transition.

-John J. PuccioFull Review
