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.

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

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

a little stiff but still good

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.

Top CriticThis 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

Disappointing big-screen debut for Picard's gang
