Our ReviewThere's a crew member named Kal-el... the last surviving Krytonian, which seems like the wrong franchise. In fact, if they didn't label themselves as "Star Trek" I'd take this to be a fan film for THAT OTHER franchise with humans and aliens. There are neither sets nor green screens, but they use elevators for turbolifts and old PC with on desk full size boxes and cathode ray tubes screens for computers. The only hint of Silver Age is the choice of music and a character named Reginald Barkley. No special effects or CGI. Repeats itself, and claims the Romulans did stuff, but it's not even clear how they got the Krytonite they went down to get. It's not clear how their crew was abducted, or why, or how they found out. Bad writing, mediocre acting. No use of CGI. Hard to follow. Bad, repetitious editing. Why use Star Trek anything? --Barb
It's not great, and I definitely had a hard time following the plot... but I admire some of the production work, given that it was created by teens on zero budget. The computer displays are nicely improvised, and I liked the crashed shuttle. --James

Our ReviewIt ends with our two Star Fleet Marines cut off from their ship. But then, the whole thing made no sense, so who cares? --Barb
