The picture quality on this DVD surpasses the quality of First Contact, Generations, and Undiscovered Country. The scenes on the planet are simply gorgeous. I can't comment on the audio because I have dismantled my HT setup and relocated my audio system to another room for serious 2 channel listening. I never realized how horrible tv speakers sound.
One thing that I dislike is that the plot of the movie unfolds too quickly. It's like they tried to fit a 2 hour movie into 90 minutes. It's been said before, but I have to agree that it's like watching a TV episode of TNG with more money for special effects. If you enjoyed any of the TV episodes (which I did) it's worth adding this movie to your collection.
One scene that I really disliked was when Riker/Frakes takes control of the enterprise steering and propulsion with a joystick that looks very familiar to the one that NASA has in their spacecrafts. Very cheesy.
I think First Contact was a better movie.
