I voted for 'Generations' as it was the FIRST 'Star Trek' film to bring the two captains of the Enterprise at the time together in a film

But on the whole it's the 'Next Generation' films that appeal to me a bit more

Can't decide but its a tie between "First Contact", "Wrath Of Khan" and "The Voyage Home".

It's close between ALL of the 'Next Generation Films' for me, but 'Generations' just has the edge over the others!

I loved them all but, my favorite is the Wrath of Khan. This movie was so intense for a Star Trek film. It had deep emotions going throughout the flick. The deep hatred of Kirk by Khan was portrayed beautifully by Ricardo Montalban. I don't think anyone else could've done that part justice.

True, that is the best of the original 'Star Trek' series films

I think the best Star Trek film was First Contact (Even though Nemesis looks like it could beat it!) First Contact had lots of action, emotion, story and of course the Borg. I was also pleased to see all of the special cameos such as Ethan Phillips as the Maitre d', the EMH, Barclay and the USS Defiant.

Second best has to be The Wrath of Khan. Khan is still the best bad guy in my books, not to mention Ricardo Montalban is a really excellent actor.

All the other films have plenty that is good in them such as:

The Undiscovered Country (Had lots of action, story, great acting and was the last original film.)

The Search for Spock (Had the destruction of the original Enterprise, the death of David, the rebirth of Spock and the first appearance of that excellent Spacedock.)

The Voyage Home (Don't really like this one, apart from the bits at the beginning with the Probe draining power from everything and tearing up Earth. There was also that tear-jerking scene at the end where the crew meet the Enterprise-A for the first time.)

The Final Frontier (Generally thought of as really bad, but I liked it. It had great humour and lots of action.)

The Motion Picture (I now think of the new Directors Edition as the definitive version and so I now think this film is pretty good and has lots of action and great effects.)

Generations (I really love this film. It has the two crews, two Enterprises, the destruction of the Enterprise-D, Data using his emotion chip, the nexus. There are also many tear-jerking moments such as Kirk's death, the news of Robert and Rene's deaths, Picard getting reunited with Rene in the Nexus, Data crying after finding Spot alive and well in the wreckage of the Enterprise-D.)

Insurrection (Although pretty tame and mainly humour-orientated. This did have some great battle scenes such as between the Enterprise and the Son'a, and the away team against the Drones.

The best over all 'Star Trek' film is going to be extrenelky difficult to find as so many people prefer different ones to each other

I would have thought that with Voyager and DS9 now being 'finished' shows in the eyes of the general public, then Paramount are more likely to go with a franchise that has current 'exposure' - and that means Enterprise.

Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country was the best of all.
