After all, there was a built-in audience there (they’d
spent a good hundred bucks on six previous “Trek”
efforts at the hardtop so this was a well-merited thanks)
to start lovin’ those new skivvy-wearing space travellers.
Okay, so the story wasn’t much, but just having old
and new come together made the movie. Didn’t hurt having
veteran loon Malcolm McDowell play the rogue either. And have
you ever actually heard any criticism about the film’s
ending? Nope.
Sacrificial contentment for T.J loathers indeed.
DVD Extras
The customary bunch of extra features we’ve seen on
each and every one of the previously released Star Trek: Special
Edition DVD’s make their triumphant return on the anticipated
“Generations” disc.
There’s the elongated documentary about the two Captain’s
coming together, a tribute to Matt Jefferies, who designed
the original Enterprise starship, special effects featurettes,
a few deleted scenes (and an alternate ending – T.J still
gets what’s coming to him, don’t fret), a gallery,
and several minutes more stuff.
If you’ve only got the bare-bones “Generations”
disc on your DVD Tower, it’s time to upgrade.
Conclusion: Movie 70% Extras 80%
