Silly but nostalgic, this UPN special from 1999 throws a bone or two to hard-core fans of sundry Star Trek television series and feature films. Seinfeld's Jason Alexander hosts, playing a faux James Tiberius Kirk and perfectly capturing the peculiar music of William Shatner's authoritative curtness and halting pontifications. Alexander's Enterprise captain is on a mission to note popular choices of longtime viewers in a number of areas, from "ultimate one-liner" to "best episode," with the winners previously selected via online voting. Naturally, one is going to take issue with many of the lists--"great beauties" is dominated by Kirk's various conquests, for instance--but that's half the fun, and in any case several categories are total no-brainers: Has there ever been a better Trek villain than Q (John DeLancie)? Speaking of the latter, DeLancie is the most ubiquitous presence in a welcome blooper reel culled from Deep Space Nine and Voyager, the erudite actor of stage and screen hilariously elocution-challenged at times. (The other delightful revelation is visual proof of those rumors that Tim Russ, who plays the starchy Tuvok on Voyager, is the biggest cut-up in Trek production history.) Besides that unexpected treat, there's a fine tribute to the late DeForest Kelley,--Dr. McCoy on the original series--including a couple of non-Trek moments featuring the once-busy character actor opposite Bette Davis and Henry Fonda. As for the "best episode" award, well, the debate over the greatest of Star Trek shows will not likely be satisfied by this program's somewhat dubious winner. Let the argument rage on. --Tom Keogh

Most helpful customer reviews   Pretty Funny, Dec 30 2001 By  MCH "mikehatz" (Rivanna River) - See all my reviews The video is a good collection of some of the best scenes from the past 3 decades. Jason Alexander does a good job. The guy who plays McCoy is kinda weak. Spock is OK. All in all a good video to RENT, if it's available. Else, ask for it as a gift, like I did. ;-) Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)   Not Necessarily the Greatest Moments - but some good ones!, Nov 28 2001 By A Customer Caveat: this opinion is from a TOS-only devotee. One must view this with tongue firmly in cheek for the recreated trinity moments, but with gusto for the film clips and bloopers. Especially noteworthy for its affectionate and well-deserved tribute to DeForest Kelley (the only one I saw - shame on you Oscar!). Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)   Star trek never dies, Aug 24 2001 By  Jonathon Taylor - See all my reviews This movie is cool. I like all the impressions of Curk, Spock, and MCCoy. All the blupers are fun to listen to as well as the all too familiar John DeLancy. I also like the techno version of the Star Trek theme song. I watched a bit of this film and was not disappointed. I like it alot. I don't intend to give the movie away! so I won't. Star Trek is my one greatest moment. The reason why is because Star Trek never dies! even if Jean Rottonbary had passed away! Star trek lives on. Buy it and enjoy. Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) Share your thoughts with other customers:  › See all 13 customer reviews...
