Scott's Review:
3.5 out of 5 stars on January 1, 2003

Nemesis is actually a good movie. I'm surprised because most of the reviews I'd read before seeing it seem to suggest it was a horrible movie. I'm not sure where I'd rank it in the whole line of Star Trek movies, but it's assuredly up there.

Starting out finding a proto-type of data, and a somewhat complicated plot to introduce a Romulan created clone of Picard, it turns into a man versus man, verging on a man versus self, fight with Picard against his evil clone. Despite how silly it might sound, it's really done well, with the battle scenes being very intense, without succumbing to the ridiculousness that appeared in Insurrection.

Without adding any spoilers, this would make a fitting end for the Next Generation crew. I can only hope that Paramount resists the temptation to undue everything they did in this movie and give us another silly odd-numbered film.
