Storyline

In the late 23rd century, the gala maiden voyage of the third Starship Enterprise (NCC-1701-B) boasts such luminaries as Pavel Chekov, Montgomery Scott and the legendary Captain James T. Kirk as guests. But the maiden voyage turns to disaster as the unprepared ship is forced to rescue two transport ships from a mysterious energy ribbon. The Enterprise manages to save a handful of the ships' passengers and barely makes it out intact... but at the cost of Captain Kirk's life. Seventy-eight years later, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D find themselves at odds with the renegade scientist Tolian Soran... who is destroying entire star systems. Only one man can help Picard stop Soran's scheme... and he's been dead for seventy-eight years. Written by Gregory A. Sheets <m-sheets2@onu.edu>

Trivia

The model of the Enterprise-B is simply the Excelsior with a few new front details. These hull additions were made so that the "damage" caused by the Nexus ribbon would not require cutting into the actual model. This miniature was seen first in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) and was used in several episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993).

Oh my...
19 October 1999 | by (London, England) – See all my reviews

Because I could tear this film apart from beginning to end, I'll strip my comments down to the essentials...

Imagine some Paramount execs in a meeting. One of them says "Hey, let's have a crossover between the generations." Another says "Yeah, good idea, but let's only have Kirk meet Picard and let's kill him in a fifteen minute cameo." The Paramount guys throw their arms in the air with joy.

Answer me this: How do you kill off one of the biggest pop-culture heroes of all time and not upset everybody at the same time? It's simply impossible. Those idiots.
