1/2
This is not quite the disaster some would lead you to believe.
It is, though, a bit of a missed opportunity. TNG shoulda gone out on a better note.
Consider this, though – had this movie been fantastic, there would have been additional TNG movies. Heck, maybe Enterprise would have gotten that fifth season.
If that were the case, would Paramount have set the engines in motion for an Abramsverse reboot in 2006? Perhaps not, but that’s what Myriad Universes are all about.
