Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Best of Both Worlds (1990)
Movie version of the classic two parter that ended season 3 and began season 4 of The Next Generation. Watched via the Amazon exclusive Blu-ray - Picard The Movie and Tv Collection.
The Enterprise must battle the Borg who are intent on conquering Earth aided by a captured and assimilated Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart).
A precursor to the 1996 film Star Trek: First Contact, this is an excellent film / double episode in it's own right and rightly regarded as some of the finest tv Trek ever made.
The Blu-ray image quality is outstanding. In particular the FX shots and model work whilst the 7:1 soundtrack is beautifully immersive. Even in the quiet moments there's the distinctive hum of the Enterprise engines and computer banks which put you in the middle of the ship's bridge.
I bought this set for the four Next Gen films and the two tv movies were a bonus. With the tv stuff looking and sounding so good i look forward to experiencing the feature films in all their glory.
