    • Trivia
      In the scene where Captain Picard and the Admiral are in Picard's ready room, there is a cloth on the back of Picard's chair. This is the cloth given to him by the Mintakans in Who Watches The Watchers (1989), an episode in which Starfleet used a duck blind for anthropological purposes.
    • Goofs
      Troi comments that she had never kissed Riker with a beard before. Yet Troi had kissed the bearded Riker in Ménage à Troi (1990), as well as in several other occasions on Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987).
    • Quotes

      Admiral Matthew Dougherty: Jean-Luc, we're only moving 600 people.

      Captain Picard: How many people does it take, Admiral, before it becomes wrong? Hmm? A thousand, fifty thousand, a million? How many people does it take, Admiral?

    • Alternate versions
      The original version of the movie contained several scenes that were cut before release:
      • an extended library scene in which Riker and Troi throw small paperballs at each other. This scene also include some lines by the Librarian (Lee Arone-Biggs) and a Trill Officer (Max Grodénchik);
      • a scene in which Picard and Anij kiss each other;
      • a scene in which Picard spills cheese on a PADD displaying the Briar Patch;
      • the actual ejection of the warp core;
      • Data punching some Son'as on the planet and nailing them with iso-linear tags;
      • "The will be no cover-up!" line on the Son'a ship.

    A moment in time can be a universe in itself
    Upon learning of the true intentions of a race known as the Son'a who are in alliance with the Federation, Picard and crew openly rebel against their former employers to protect a unique planet's current population. Part of the anger towards this one, being called "the worst of the ST films", is probably that it lacks the immediate gravity of the others... this isn't about Earth in danger(like many of the others), it's a small colony that we've never heard of before, and we don't, since. And the bad guys aren't The Borg, Romulans, Klingons or something else that has long been built up... no, it's these generic beings that behave in an "evil" manner. While this is genuinely funny, it also has gags and jokes that fall flat and embarrass. It gets to be too silly at times. One can wonder why the Enterprise is suddenly so weak. And the focus remains on the Captain and Data. Other than that, this is a solid entry. The plot is fairly engaging(even though disobeying orders has been explored before in this series) and the developments keep your interest. This has impeccable dialog. With very few exceptions, it is well-written and delivered spot-on. The acting is dependable. Frakes and Sirtis are cute together. This has great production and FX, and honestly inspires a sense of wonder in the audience. The action is pretty good, and this is very exciting. There is a bit of disturbing content and a little sensuality in this. The DVD comes with a decent 5 minute behind-the-scenes featurette, a trailer and a teaser. I recommend this to fans of Star Trek and The Next Generation. 7/10
