 | | 8. Star Trek VIII: First Contact | | | Starring: Brent Spiner Patrick Stewart Director: Jonathan Frakes | | Format: DVD Release Date: 9/22/2009 |  | Star Trek: First Contact - DVD Review By: Christopher Null - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 9/11/2009 5:42 PM | |
People tend to measure the quality of a Star Trek movie in relation to those near it in the cycle. Compared to episodes before (5 and 7) and those that followed (9 and 10), this eighth installment of the unkillable series is surprisingly watchable. Jonthan "Riker" Frakes is at the helm this time, taking the Next Generation crew on its first mission without the original series cast. The setup comes fast, as Frakes trots out one of the series' most reliable villains: The Borg. Building from the mythology set up in the series, Picard (a former Borg captive) has a serious axe to grind, and when Starfleet ends up in a skirmish with an invading Borg ship, he defies orders and engages them in battle. read the full review | |

 | | 10. Logans Run | | | Starring: Michael York Jenny Agutter Director: Michael Anderson | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/29/2008 | | Logan's Run - DVD Review By: Chris Cabin - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 10/30/2009 11:42 PM | |
Michael Anderson's Logan's Run is the sort of silly, lo-fi science-fiction epic that only had two choices upon its release: Become a cult hit or fade from memory by the time the audience chucked their empty popcorn bags. For some time in 1976, it landed in the former category and was considered by a certain sect to be a classic; sci-fi conventions urged guests to participate in "Runs," reenacting the film's central set-piece. A year later, Star Wars: A New Hope would be released and would usher in a whole new wave of sci-fi with its sprawling, interplanetary alternate reality, and Logan's Run became destined to register as only a minor blip on the scene. read the full review | |
