SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Every time I ask someone if they've seen this movie, they say : ''Ah, it's a Star Trek/Shatner thing!'' But it's not! This movie is very good. It's the story of guys in their late 20's coming into their adulthood. Dealing with every day normal (or geeky normal) experiences we all go through. From a threesome (!?) to having no electricity because you have overdue payments, to finding the woman of your life and loosing her. Shatner is the added bonus to this wonderful flick. After is inflated-ego trip, he now learns to laugh at himself and makes us laugh in the process. This movie reconciled me with ''Bill''. An unforgettable performance by Will & Grace's Eric McCormak of a William Shatner's speech from Star Trek (or a mixed interpretation of one!) Top 10 on my list! Go see it now...

Okay... Some funny bits. Some funny character stuff about the nature of being a non-stereotypical geek. The actors feel flat and there isn't much really going on in the movie....but please.Talk about sexist. You're telling me that guys like that who've spent their entire lives hanging in comic book shops, conventions, toys stores has NEVER ONCE RAN INTO ANOTHER FEMALE SCI FI GEEK! Oh! Until that magical day where he FINALLY DOES.Yeah, okay, we're not all supermodels and have obnoxious breathy voices like that chick did. But hey, all the males ain't as attractive as those dudes were....But please. A large majority of my friends are geeks exactly like those guys were and a large majority of them are females. You go to opening night of Ep3 you are going to find a lot of women there... and no some of us will not be there because our boyfriends make us.This movie just perpetuates the great myth. Women only care about shoes, they don't "get" Star Trek and comics OH! Except for one! Only one! But they never meet any others.

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 :-)

I could see where they were trying to go with this, but the delivery was just embarrassingly bad at times. I am assuming budgetary constraints stopped them from getting decent actors and prevented re-takes of scenes that screamed for it. I laughed out loud at times but mostly because I was trying so hard to like it.The acting was really awful. Exceptions were the leads: McCormack, England, Weigel and Shatner (in that order). Everyone else was a D acting job.
Worth watching only if you're an old Trek fan or McCormack fan. I have to say I was impressed after knowing him only from Will & Grace to see the range of his talent. Gotta love the Logan's Run references throughout the movie too!
