Movies: Star Trek Nemesis
The following is a movie I've watched and reviewed. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not selling DVDs. This is not a list of movies that tell you "the truth about UFOs". Simply said, I like movies. Each review is as simple and non technical as possible.

Description: Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the Enterprise-E crew find themselves on a diplomatic mission to initiate peace with the Romulans. Learning that the Romulans have undergone a political upheaval and their new Praetor, Shinzon, wants to discuss a peace treaty with the Federation, Picard and his crew must investigate the situation and determine Shinzon's sincerity. They learn that not only is the new Praetor not a Romulan at all, but a native of Romulus' sister planet Remus. They also find that he is a human replica of Picard, originally bio-engineered by the Romulans to be substituted for the captain as a weapon against the Federation. Now, Picard and his crew must determine if the Romulans truly desire a peace treaty, or if they have other plans in mind.
This is the final Star Trek movie with The Next Generation cast. Things have evolved, but the crew manages to rejoin for this mission: Whoopi Goldberg appears as Guinan, Worf is back on the Enterprise and we get to see Janeway (Star Trek Voyager)! Cloning is a pattern of Nemesis. There is darkness and pain in Nemesis: the violence lived by Shinzon, the psychic rape and the final space ships collision. While the new Enterprise E looks solid, we are disappointed during the fight with the Scimitar: can't the Federation build a ship able to stand in fight? Every time it falls down like a paper airplane! The evil Romulans, furthermore, have become poor worthless guys: one human can revert their Government.
Shinzon (ideal actor, at least) doesn't look like Picard at all, not even for a second. Data's death has been too short and unnecessary: he just goes out.
There are things I like in this movie, after all: B-4 raises some questions about Data's origins, the desert heath sequence to find all part of B-4 is rendered with very good colours and lights.
