I'm not a Trekkie fan by any means but I have to say I'm suprised so many rate this so highly? I found it rather slow and boring and void of any real action whatsoever. The borg can just be walked past half the time, hardly an intimidating or a fearsome enemy. The latest Star Trek film going back to how the original crew got together is the best by far.

Definitely not Swedish
Indisputably the best of the TNG Trek movies, not that this is saying very much. Picard and company whizz off back to the 21st century to stop the malevolent Borg from changing history; there's no plot like a recycled Star Trek plot, I guess. Vaguely odd premise is realised well by Jonathan Frakes.
Kind of falls victim to the usual assumption that all Star Trek movies must necessarily be action movies, and (once again as usual) some of the more junior members of the cast don't get very much to do. Frankly, would have liked to have seen the original script where the Borg tried to kidnap Leonardo da Vinci (Patrick Stewart refused to wear tights on film any more, apparently), but moves along breezily enough and you don't need to be a full-on Trekkie to find something to entertain you here.

The Borg before Voyager demystified them (3 more)
Great blend of action, story, humor, and character
Seeing the First Contact between humans and Vulcans
Great acting from Patrick Stewart
Easily Picard and crew's best cinematic outing
The best (often seen as only good) entry in the TNG films is also one of the best Trek films period. The storyline blends both a Borg and Time Travel story in very clever ways and director Jonathan Frakes does a great job at keeping it fun.
