Review: 'Star Trek First Contact' is rousing cowboys versus zombie cyborgs

Star Trek   First Contact   PG 13      

            Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) and crew return for what many fans consider the real first good TNG movie, and perhaps the last, an adventure where the Enterprise E, a new ship, travels back into time to the early days of the first warp drive test to stop the Borg from destroying Zephram Cochrane, a man who invented starship engines, and changing the timeline forever. Jonathan Frakes directs. He plays Riker on the TNG series. Action pacing and an intimate understanding of his fellow cast members make for a rousing story that isn’t hard to understand and stands as a decently thrilling story at times. Even the slow parts are fun. Not quite as lofty as saving the whales, but it will do, and it is a rousing space cowboy adventure with robotic zombies, so it has it all.
