STAR TREK: INSURRECTION (1998) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

This one was more of a Star Trek T N G episode than a movie. So it was adequate and that's about it

I don't know if we can spare cassie seeing the next one

"Admiral Akbar" is a fitting amount of disrespect for that guy. Trek > Wars always.

Cassie - if you want to understand what happened in the movie, watch yourself DeepSpace9 AND Voyager! Do NOT continue with the movies until you've done so, or you'll NEVER understand what happened!!

I think this is a better movie than it gets credit for. I think it was just a disappointingly small film after First Contact. But, just as you yourself suggested, it was very, very much in keeping with an episode of the series. Which I think is cool.

Having only watched it once when it was released and not rating it at the time, I was mistaken. It's actually really good!

Admiral Akbar lol.... 'its a trap'

In the interest of preserving your newfound love of Star Trek, I would strongly urge you to skip Nemesis and just start in on DS9, which takes place first chronologically anyway.

The Briar patch and Brer Rabbit is a reference to a Disney movie they wish they could burry but can’t. Songs Of The South. He outsmarts Brer Fox.

Such a good film :)

Bre'er Rabbit is a reference to an old Disney movie that was removed from circulation in the 1990s. It is called "Song Of the South" and featured a beloved character called Uncle Remus. The movie was frowned upon because it showed Uncle Remus as a happy character, though he was enslaved. Problematic in modern times.

Oh dear, maybe I'm wrong, but you look exhausted. Wish you a speedy recovery.

Picards love interest is also Mother Gothel

You should checkout Bruce Willis in Hostage 2005.

This movie and the next one are unwatchable. Absolutely awful...but for completely different reasons.

What you said about this feeling like a long episode of TNG was exactly what was said at the time this came out. And a lot of people where not happy about that, because they wanted another First Contact, with lots of high stakes, but I feel it holds up well.

Donna Murphy, the woman who play Anij is a multi Tony award winning musical theater actress, who is probably best remembered for her role as Mother Gothel in Tangled, also played Otto's wife in Spider-Man 2

Why does Insurrection get so much hate?? This is the best movie T_T

For me, the next movie (Nemesis) just doesn't feel like Trek. so I consider this one the "farewell" to the TNG cast. It kind of brings things full-circle, with a more lighthearted TV-stye adventure, a beardless Riker. It wraps up the stories of Picard, Data and Riker showing them all learning to have more fun and gives a sense of hope for their futures.

Its for me the only real TNG movie. 👍

I like Insurrection but it doesn't come close to First Contact but the real problem is the small stakes it feels like an episode idea expanded for a movie. Good but not a big event movie.

"What is going on??" - that's what happens when you skip episodes and whole series out of sequence. 😂

« What’s going on? »…you forgot to watch deep space 9….

Did I hear you say, "Alright, make out already"? Now that would ba a whole DIFFERENT movie. Great reaction!

It's not nice to tease Star Trek fans by pretending there were more movies after First Contact. A lot of us older fans are still upset how Star Trek simply disappeared after '97.

this is a fun movie for various reasons. love the British Tar segment.

Three more movies after the next one.

In case you didn't know, Riker and Troi were in a relationship prior to them serving on the Enterprise -D.

Riker didn't have a beard until the second season of The Next Generation.

I completley adore your reactions and little smiles at certain moments, seeing you enjoy Start Trek for the first time it such a joy

Even under all that alien makeup, F. Murray Abraham is unmistakable.

Only good one is first contact

Anthony Zerbe, who plays the corrupted Star Fleet Admiral, is a great character actor who has really horrible deaths in many movies.

So I'm gonna venture an unpopular opinion here. My take is that everyone involved in this was wrong, and that letting the people stay on that planet would have guaranteed intergalactic war. There's not an empire in the galaxy that wouldn't have committed every ship in their fleet to conquering this planet and harvesting the secret of immortality. Klingons, Romulans, Breen, Ferengi, the Dominion... all would have gleefully slaughtered every man, woman, and child in the Federation to get what that planet had. The best thing Picard could have done was evacuate the planet, dig up the old Genesis Device plans, and put a torpedo into that planet with everyone watching.

Cassie, have you seen Amadeus? I think that you have. Salieri was played by Mr. Murray who played the bad stretchy face guy who yelled!

Br'er Rabbit is from Song of the South (1946), done by Disney. In the film, Uncle Remus tells three tales of Br'er Rabbit and his foes, Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear. It's live and with toons. Worth a watch.

Dude seeing this pop up from you made my week. This week I’ve been going insane dealing with my psycho slumlord, and fighting the urge to “unalive” him. Watching your vid on my break really helped me, thank you.

did cassie watch ds9? does she know the federation is at war rn?

Worf at this time isn't into Deanna. That ended. He is into someone else on Deep Space 9.

A real fun movie!!!

The Federation was in the middle of a pretty devastating war. They probably could've made use of a powerful medical advancement.

the plot made no sense, all they had to do is setup a federation hospital on the opposite side of the planet, no need for holoship or relocation or even the baku knowing about them

Don't forget you have other star Trek series, but also you could watch picard- watch every episode only 10 per season

Requesting weekend at Bernie's and virtuosity 🙋🙏❤️

I still think this is the best entrance in the next Generation movies. Such a great script, such a great premise, and I'm sorry I think it UPS the stakes

I liked this movie and never understood the hate for it. I have heard people complain that it was just a 2-hour episode of TNG. My response is always "So, what's wrong with that?"

Make sure to watch Picard Season 3 after you watch Nemesis. No need to watch Picard Season 1 or 2!
