It’s both uneventful and entertaining - a weird mix of nothing that should be boring but the character conversations and relationships are in full force so it carries the film like a good episode of the television show.

This is Shatner’s love letter to the original series.

This is a movie that is an experience - it stays with you days later and it makes you think what could have been if we had done things differently when we settled North America. When we finally…
