Not since the corny, yet enjoyable prequel "Voyage Home" has the franchise turned-out anything near as good as this one: 'Nemesis' is fantastic in its escapism. So far, Nemesis hasn't made quite as much money as the people at Paramount might have expected.
If you've already seen "Star Trek--The Search for Spock," then expect a follow-up to Nemesis, because, likewise, the plot appears to be some type of set-up... a false alarm that fools nobody already use the makers of these movies who constantly try to keep the 'space' cottage industry afloat. And yet, with this installment, the audience member can rely on the 'cottage attempts in many departments (some of them all too familiar): a somewhat memorable engagement party in honor of two crew members; at least two alien-species that managed to make me squirm with unbridled fright; the obligatory explosions that manage to consistently elicit some cheers from the movie-going crowd (myself included); and, as previously mentioned, a loose end which heralds yet another sequel in the works if this movie does a better job in the DVD market.
Paramount Studios, live long and continue reaping profits.
