Rank your favorite Star Trek movies! Be ready to defend your positions!

Here’s mine:

  1. The Undiscovered Country
  2. Wrath of Khan
  3. Voyage Home
  4. Motion Picture
  5. Search for Spock
  6. Generations
  7. First Contact
  8. Final frontier
  9. Insurrection
  10. Nemesis

I’m not a fan of any of the Kelvinverse films, BUT if forced to rank them, it would be like this:

  1. Beyond
  2. Into Darkness
  3. Star Trek

EDIT: Apparently everyone on this website is insane

  1. Wrath of Khan

  3. Insurrection
  4. Voyage Home
  5. Nemesis
  6. The Undiscovered Country
  7. Generations
  8. Search for Spock
  9. Motion Picture
  10. Final frontier

I enjoyed the Kelvin films pretty equally. In wouldn’t have started watching Trek if it were not for 09. But I do see them as a separate thing.

Nemesis above Undiscovered Country? That’s a shock!

I’m not certain but I think that’s an actual crime in some states.

I agree, it is a most illogical choice.

Big fan of Insurrection getting some respect! I love it for being the big budget, high production mashup of TNG that it clearly is, even though it also doubles down on the Picard-as-Action-Hero trend that ends up ruining Nemesis (IMO).

Insurrection is not among my faves but for me it’s exactly what a Star Trek movie should be: a two parter episode with better budget.

The final frontier was bad. It was really bad. It had so much random stuff going on and had very little explanations about anything. They should have narrowed their focus a lot.

Y’know I watched it recently and I was prepared for the worst, but it’s really not that bad. The plot is silly but there are some good character moments. It felt like TOS.

You put Into Darkness above '09? Madness.

My perspective is that at least Into Darkness has a message? Kind of? '09 felt like Star Trek: Mountain Dew. Don’t get me wrong though I don’t feel either is worth defending and I put one second total into deciding the Kelvinverse order.

Beyond and 09 weren’t good, but I think Into Darkness was quite significantly worse. It was probably the single least creative movie I’ve ever seen, though I guess some other Abrams movies come close.

I will not die on this hill. If you say it’s worse I believe you because I’ll never watch any of them again.

I watched the first JJ Star Trek movie. It was basically one long Kirk brawl and then they made him captain. It was pathetic.

MajorHavoc ,

Can we all agree to refer to 09 as Star Trek: Mountain Dew, from now on?

I love the film, but it’s a fair nickname.

Generations above First Contact is a hot take, too

Corgana OP ,

I have a soft spot for it. It’s weird in a good way! No shade at First Contact tho.

420blazeit69 ,

It’s got Kirk and Picard, which is a movie that should exist even if the execution wasn’t ideal.

Generations gave us Data's lifeforms song, which is certainly a positive in my book.

There’s also: “Yes it is REVOLTING!”
“More?”
“Please!!”

And the cinematography is always eye catching.

Some of the best in the entire franchise!
