Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

mjdaniels-1 Despite the majority of the cast being relative unknowns to the UK market (not including William Shatner), I thought that this film worked extremely well and everyone involved gelled together very well.Eric McCormack's impersonation of Captain Kirk whilst trying to get the delectable Audie England's character back together with her love interest is definitely one of the highlights of the film, along with Shatner's rather amusing yet entertaining Julius Caesar rap.Well written and exceptionally well researched with references back to many episodes of the original series of Star Trek, this is a great film that will be enjoyed by all and loved by both Sci-Fi geeks and Sci-Fi critics alike.Definitely one for the DVD collection and I can't wait for the sequel.

Bogmeister A movie for Trekkers, made by Trekkers, about Trekkers, etc. Trekkers (oh, not 'Trekkies'-savvy?) are "Star Trek" fans, usually very obsessed fans. However, the 2 main characters here, despite fitting the standard Trekker profile of letting Trek dominate their lives, are well-rounded in other aspects: one of 'em, despite never having any money and a loser sensibility, is pretty successful with girls & doesn't have problems 'getting some.' The other is successful career-wise, with normal interests, as well. The filmmakers obviously wanted to show Trekkers as more than just weird geeks. However, something doesn't jibe with this presentation: the 2 guys come across as SO normal, it's hard to believe they've got every Trek episode memorized. That being said, this flic is a Trekker dream, filled with pop cultural references (for other Sci-Fi famous flics,too) and in-jokes that will probably baffle those not informed about Trek sayings & terminology (one scene is even filmed at a famous site from one of the classic episodes, but this was already done in "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey"/1991). In the plot, the 2 guys, who both work in the film industry in L.A., happen to spot their idol, William Shatner, in a bookstore (Shatner, who portrayed Capt.Kirk in the classic Trek series and movies, is played by ...William Shatner). He doesn't live up to their expectations of a hero, even coming across as a bit of a loon, setting the stage for the re-evaluation of their lives. In all, the movie comes across as a bit silly and even pointless, with non-too-subtle moralizing about what's important in life, and apparent low-budget origins. But even non-Trekkers should find it mildly amusing. The DVD even has explanations of all the arcane Trek references, including optional subtitles. I'm still not sure what the title means (The Enterprise, of course, was the spaceship, er, starship in Trek, but so what?).

bjfraserjr This movie has some laughs, but it's not put together well enough to be a good film. There are subplots and characters that don't seem to contribute much to the plot. The ending is almost nonsensical; you'd have to see it to know what I mean. Shatner isn't involved as much as I expected in this movie; he doesn't seem to really guide the main characters to getting their lives on track as the descriptions promise.I found it sort of refreshing that the main characters were not the stereotypical Trekkies living in their parents's basement, but at the same time (like during the Toys R Us scene) it seemed like the filmmakers were trying too hard to establish the characters's credibility as sci-fi geeks.Because there are some good laughs (and some other good R-rated stuff) I'd recommend this for anyone who is or knows a Trekkie/comic book/sci-fi geek. Ultimately, though, this doesn't measure up to Kevin Smith's "Clerks", "Mallrats", or "Chasing Amy".BTW, I thought the real title of this movie should have been "Get a Life" to tie it to Shatner's famous quote and the film's theme. Maybe that was taken already. ;-)

harcher I really enjoyed this film and would recommend it to anyone in the mood for a funny/stupid movie. William Shatner was great as himself, a larger than life past middle aged self styled poet. He is truly the "Captain" for the common man.There is not very much substance to the movie but I really enjoyed the wierdness and nerdiness of it. It is a good laugh but nothing to take very seriously, except of course for Bill's one man performance of Ceasar, which I thought was just about as much Bill as any one can handle :-)
