The Mulgrew interview was really uncomfortable and soured me on Shattner, because she's my mom. Not literally, of course. But really, don't ask a single, working mom how she raised her kids. Bad fucking form.

Kate Mulgrew is too much man for Shatner to handle, Patrick Stewart badmouths Tasha Yar, and Avery Brooks bangs out metaphys-tastic blues chords in what has to be the worst improv session in the history of the universe...and somehow I still give this a 76.

An intriguing movie that only has appeal to trekkies. the draw back to that aspect is that shatner comes up with some lines of questioning that simply lead nowhere, and avery brooks is a complete nut case. the interviews with stewart and bakula are awesome and some of shatner's antics prove pretty entertaining, although trite and contrived.

Interesting enough to see all the captains but the interviewing is odd and sometimes outright embarassing.

Meandering and tender. Shatner's a great host at times because he's just so peculiar, but his sexism comes out against the classy Kate Mulgrew. Avery Brooks is the man.

Shatner's a weird host, as much as love with himself as with the fact he's making a documentary. Still, there are some interesting, revealing and genuinely nice moments to be found. Avery Brooks is a goddamn lunatic.

I came to cringe, and I was not disappointed.

The one captain who distanced himself most from Star Trek, got to do this. And it shows. You almost can see the pain of the other captains while they are being interviewed. They are polite, but that's about it.
