Movie Reviews of Star Trek Voyager: Seasons 1-7
Movie Review: Voyager
Summary: 5 Stars
While riding the wave of Next Gen and becoming hooked on DS9's "Dominion War" storyline, I would occassionaly flip channels after the shows and catch "Voyager". Most of the time, I would simply dismiss it as the show they put on the have a spaceship roaming the universe again, as many Trek fans decried DS9 as being "too stationary and not going anywhere!". I simply didn't pay much attention, and likened it to boring technobabble and Prime Directive Starfleet preachiness,and dismissed this show entirely. Well, I caught an episode or two here or there years later, and noticed a marked improvement.
When I came across the entire set available on Ebay for $100, I figured, "What the hell, why not?" and bought it. I was dismayed to find I had received some Chinese or Asian knockoff; the packaging was cheap, as if someone had burned all of the discs and printed them with an inkjet printer! The episodes played (for the most part- some did not, or were heavily pixelated), but all had Chinese subtitles, which sometimes would not turn off.
Despite all this, I noticed one thing- Voyager was a HELL of a good show! I wondered why I had so easily dismissed it early on!
There are times where I find myself wanting to make it my favorite Trek show, which is saying a lot!
It's basically a complete, seven-year story arc, forgetting nothing for the sake of continuity. Some of the things I found that made Voyager so interesting were...
I. The crew have differences with each other; none of this "we all get along and love each other" crap like on Next Gen. There is some real tension between some of the characters.
II. The Captain is staunch and crisply-pressed in her Starfleet rhetoric, but the crew, which is now part Maquis, don't see eye to eye with her, and always question or even defy her orders. That never happened on Next Gen!
III. Some of the story lines, like a continuing week after week saga of a traitor on board, or a race of aliens hunting Voyager for it's technology, a race of aliens hunting Voyager's crew for internal organs, etc.- amazing and far different from the usual Shakespearean Next Gen fare of Romulan and Klingon politics.
IV. Borg- and lots of 'em! Not to mention other great new aliens week to week, as Voyager was always on the move- Hirogen hunters, Hazari, Think Tank, Swarm, Species 8472, The Borg, The Kazon and many others.
V. The crew seem a little more believable, as I mentioned earlier. Tom Paris like cartoons and old cars- not the usual tea and classical music of the Next Gen's. Harry Kim plays an instrument. Lt. Torres has personal problems and anger management issue; Chakotay is an American Native; the Doctor and Neelix are always great comic relief, and not in an overly obtuse way.
If you want a great new sci-fi show to watch, or a fresh perspective on Trek, then I recommend this highly! You won't be disappointed!
My only grievance with those money-grubbing bastards over at Paramount is that the packaging is pretty cheap on the DS9 and Voyager sets. The Next Gen set's have nice, sturdy packaging- why not V and DS9? My only other complaint is they should have commentaries on the dvd's- that would be great! It would also be nice to have a "play all episodes" feature too.
Overall, though- go for it!
