In STAR TREK: NEMESIS, based on the STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION television series, the USS Enterprise is gearing up for a challenging mission. While responding to a call from the Romulan neutral zone, the crew comes across a signal on the nearby planet Remus. It turns out to be Data's (Brent Spiner) less advanced brother, B-4 (also played by Spiner). Soon thereafter, Picard is confronted by Shinzon (Tom Hardy), who makes an offer of peace on behalf of the Romulans. As Starfleet enters into negotiations, they realize this treaty may have a twist. Shinzon presents himself as a clone of Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), and as a simultaneous friend and foe. Though the baby faced Shinzon wears an intimidating shiny black metallic suit of armor, and spits his words through a nasty sneer, he is clearly no match for Picard. Meanwhile Data has a nifty side project debugging his clone, whose intentions are not as innocent as they may seem. As tension mounts between the crew of the Starship Enterprise and Shinzon's Reman minions, resulting in riveting high-tech deep-space battle, a vital sacrifice must be made to save the day. STAR TREK: NEMESIS's shocking ending will leave viewers hanging, anxiously awaiting the next installment in the series.
Theatrical Release: DECEMBER 13, 2002

2 thumbs up Drop your TV remote and grab your DVD player remote control, a bag popcorn, peanuts, Jaffas for this Sci-Fi masterpiece which could be the last in the Star Trek saga. For just 111 minutes it's the best time filler ever. Submitted by a reviewer (Kingsford, New South Wales, Australia) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
Very unexpected ! I've only watched it once and wasn't really able to pay attention to the whole thing but, it was very unexpected ! I hadn't seen any in depth trailers of it, so the ending took me by surprise. Going to have to see it again and pay attention. Al in all, it is excellent !

A little too boring This movie can't seem to live up to Star Trek standards.It's obvious that the cast is getting too old and the movies are losing their excitement. Submitted by Blake (Brandon,MS) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
Star Trek: Nemesis goes DEEP! Very deep storyline bordering on the metaphysical . . . IF you pay attention to every detail. The special effects are exactly what I've come to expect from the folks at Star Trek - AWESOME!! What captivated me about this movie is the very unique way in which Picard is taken on a journey; not a journey to Tau Alpha C at Warp 9, but a timeless journey within himself, a journey forcing him to confront himself right before his very own eyes, and in front of his entire crew. He is laid bare, still willing and able to reflect upon his entire lifetime with no regrets, and smile. What a role model for today's rapidly changing world!
In the end, even the android, Data, proves to be just as human (and perhaps even Christ-like) as the rest of us in giving his life to save humanity. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the One. This has been and always shall be, my favorite incarnation of Star Trek. There are always, possibilities; and if Genesis truly is life from death I doubt we've seen the last of Picard and Company on the big screen.
