In the twenty-fourth century, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E has been ordered to patrol the Romulan Neutral Zone by the Federation to avoid interference with their battle against the insidious Borg. Witnessing the loss of the battle, Captain Jean-Luc Picard ignores orders and takes command of the fleet engaging the Borg. But the Borg plan to travel back into the twenty-first century through a vortex with the intention to stop Earth's first contact with an alien race (the Vulcans). Following the Borg sphere, Picard and his crew realize that they have taken over the Enterprise in order to carry out their mission. Their only chance to do away with the Borg and their seductive Queen is to make sure that Zefram Cochran makes his famous faster-than-light travel to the stars.Written by

A scene filmed, that did not make the final cut, featured Deanna Troi attempting to communicate with the abrasive Zefram Cochran. Fed up with his attitude, she pushes him off an embankment, fully aware that he will land on a force field, which breaks his fall. See more »

Despite having an ICBM launching less than a few hundred feet away from them, none of the people watching the launch are deafened or even display any discomfort. Even if they weren't injured or killed, the would be in great physical pain from the multi-decibel sound generated by the missile. See more »
Star Trek:First Contact is the best Star Trek film in my opinion. Far better than the average Star Trek:Generations or any of the films featuring the original crew.
I won't go into the plot too much because I hate spoiling it for fans and it is easy sometimes to give away too much. Let's just say that the cast of The Next Generation take on the inhuman Borg, one of the best race of Star Trek villains ever.
There are no slow spots in this film. It is one big long action fest and every character is utilized. There are some terrific scenes and there is quite a bit of tension between the crew, particularly Worf and Picard. Picard has some harsh words for Worf at one point in the film and it really does look as though Worf will hit Picard. You could cut the tension in this film with a knife.
I'd also like to mention the great job done by the beautiful Alice Krige as the Borg Queen. Again, there is not a wasted moment in this film and Krige does a brilliant job as the Borg Queen.
I strongly recommend Star Trek:First Contact-it is the type of film which you finish watching and feel as though you have spent your money well.
