The plot is almost like something Carl Sagan would have written (especially with Voyager involved). The pacing and visuals are great as well...obviously influenced by 2001.

If you watch it again, pick up the director's cut.

Now THAT sounds like a Star Trek I wanna watch...

Not really a fan of Star Trek, infact i don't think I've seen a proper full episode before... but Simon Pegg is in it, right? Any film featuring him is worth seeing, the guy is literally a god. I'd fuck him!

TNG themesong is permenantly etched in my head. I can still see the family around the table, eating Mcdonald's after baseball practice, watching TNG over dinner, the big double-deck VHS player under it, big old stereo in the cabinet next to the TV...
