Easily the best Star Trek Movie.

This movie is a winner in many departments. First of all is the storyline. Picard wants to get revenge with his all time enemy, the borg. The borg had abducted Picard earlier in the television series, and he had a traumatic recovery from that. Now, however Picard wants to destroy the borg queen and try to put an end to the borg. The music in this film is great, it's quickly paced and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The villains are great. I mean the borg are so cold-hearted and ruthless, they are the best villain Star Trek has ever created. Special effects are phenomenal in this movie as well. The borg look creepier, and slimier then ever. Also seeing officers turn slowly into borg, and watching the Enterprise slowly turn into a maggot nest for the borg is superb. I also find the action in this film to be sensational. You can't miss a minute of the action. Other than that I really have no gripes about this film. First Contact is nothing like the more tranquil, Insurrection, but it breaks away from the episode- like movie, Generations. A truly remarkable film that is easily the best Star Trek movie to date.
