Honestly Insurection felt like a 2 part episode rather than a movie.
You say that like it’s a bad thing. There’s a bunch of two parters I like better than most the movies. Add in a bigger budget and that sounds amazing to me.
Yeah, except it sucked in general and more so as a movie. It felt like it should have been slotted in as a random mid-season two parter, not even a season finale slot.
Insurrection is a character assassination story, so its bad no matter how you slice it.
In Star Trek: Insurrection nobody acknowledges that Worf recently lost his wife.
I don’t believe that is anyone’s favorite VOY episode.
Is that the one where Rock "The Dwayne" Johnson bodyslams Seven of Nine, or is that the one with all the glimpses?
It's definitely one of mine!
It's quite a visceral look at how radicalization works, and how groups manipulate members and potential members through control of language, artificial camaraderie and especially, having an enemy.
And the end is amazing. When Chakotay sees the scary looking alien (can't remember the species) on Voyager, all that fear and hatred still comes back to him even though he knows he was manipulated. Because being de-radicalized isn't just like flipping a switch. It's easier to learn to hate than unlearn it.
Obviously it could be better - as with most Voyager eps to be honest - but it's definitely one of the ones I look forward to most on a rewatch.
