Mar 18, 2002Time Travel/Cyborg Gestalt
The second of the Star Trek: The Next Generation films where series regular Jonathan Frakes takes the director's chair and delivers an exciting adventure, showing an excellent hand with the special effects. Far more satisfying than the previous film

Third of the Star Trek: The Next Generation films has Jonathan Frakes back in the director's seat where he again plays to his strengths with great visual effects scenes but the story feels like a filler episode

Feb 23, 2004Time-Stopping Device/Children's Film
A one idea film about a device that can stop time. In the directorial hands of Star Trek: The Next Generation actor Jonathan Frakes, this is given a juvenile focus where the device serves no more ends than a series of slapstick pratfalls

Sep 21, 2004Hi-Tech Rescue Organisation/TV Series Remake
This live-action film version of the cult Gerry Anderson puppet series is a disaster. Great effort is made to replicate the look of the original but the film is killed by the choice to rewrite everything as a modern formula kid’s movie
