Abrams&#8217; <a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1559/"><strong>Star Trek</strong></a> coming to theaters this Friday, it seemed as good of time as any to put into words the truth about the <strong>Star Trek</strong> series: the ultimate ranking of the movies. Here you go, and if you disagree, let me know how you&#8217;re wrong:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1111/">Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan</a><br />
</strong>The performances, action and emotion in this movie are beyond comparison. That being said, I almost liked&#8230;<span id="more-1122"></span></li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1114/">Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country</a><br />
</strong>&#8230;as much. In fact, it&#8217;s pretty bad ass and features several great sequences. I&#8217;ve watched this one more than any other <em>Star TrekThe Wrath of Khan</em> movie, including .</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1116/">Star Trek: First Contact</a><br />
</strong>After the disappointing <em>Generations</em>, this one kicked the TNG cast into high gear with a funny, exciting and Borg-filled action flick where the fate of Earth lies in the balance.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1112/">Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home</a><br />
</strong>Though it would be hard these days to pull off a movie such as this (a futuristic cast jumping back to modern time is, shall we say, cheesy), there&#8217;s something just enjoyable and funny about this one.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1115/">Star Trek: Generations</a><br />
</strong>Captain Kirk is killed off in a horribly lame way. This was not how Kirk was meant to die. At least we get to see the Enterprise go down in stunning fashion.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1110/">Star Trek III: The Search for Spock</a><br />
</strong>This Leonard Nimoy-directed film isn&#8217;t particularly good, as it suffers from rather shoddy special effects, a weak screenplay and a disappointingly dull story when compared to the previous film. Christopher Lloyd as the main Klingon villain was horrible casting, too. That being said, the movie isn&#8217;t as bad as some people make it out to be.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1109/">Star Trek: The Motion Picture</a><br />
</strong>The only <em>Star Trek</em> movie that feels truly dated, this one&#8217;s slow, methodical and a little too obsessed with how pretty it thinks it is (though compare it to <em>Star Wars</em>, which came out a year earlier, and it is really not that pretty). But, for what it&#8217;s worth, it&#8217;s still a grandiose film with an interesting ending.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1118/">Star Trek: Nemesis</a><br />
</strong>A lot of people give this one a lot of heat, and in reality it&#8217;s not that great, but it&#8217;s not nearly as bad as some people say. Sure, the villains look like Nosferatus, but it was a step in the right direction&#8230; if only they hadn&#8217;t released it at the same time as <em>Lord of the Rings</em>, which last time I checked has an overlapping fan base.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1117/">Star Trek: Insurrection</a><br />
</strong>This stupid movie had way too much New Age concepts for my taste, and all around came off as a fluffy, uninteresting action flick. But it&#8217;s not as bad as&#8230;</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.filmjabber.com/movie/preview/1113/">Star Trek V: The Final Frontier</a><br />
</strong>&#8230; which is truly bad. William Shatner directed this one, but it didn&#8217;t work out. Captain Kirk versus God is really not a battle anyone needs to see.</li>
</ol>
<p>So, what do you think of the list? Am I right or am I right? And where does the new <strong>Star Trek</strong> film fall into this list&#8230;</p>
