Finally a Star Trek show that actually humanizes their protagonists instead of hiding them behind a wall of rules as kind of emotions cloaking device. In season 2 the very fact that all this political correct federation stuff gets in the way when it comes to truthfully get to the core of ones inner self is what drives the show - personalized foremost, but not exclusively, in none other than the one and only Picard. That said, there is all the good classic stuff as well, superbly choreographed and CGIed syfy action, thrilling story, complicated and exotic villains worthy of the next generation's legendary captain.

In a nutshell: It's the most ambivalent and complex and therefore most authentic and human show that ever came out of this franchise. I truly hope the orthodox community gets over her illusions and starts to treasure this gem, so it cherishs us for a long time.

When Franz Klammer raced for the most wanted and expected and needed Olympic gold medal in the history of at least the Austrian sport, I was 12 and jumped and screamed in front of the TV set. So was my mother. Maybe, lacking this experience or any connection to Austria whatsover, it's difficult to relate what was going on in this little, ski crazed country of ours, and watching the movie you might think it's over the top in that regard. Well, it's not. For me, it was reliving the days of anticipation, the nervousness, all of it. Added to it the colourful depiction of the spirit and style of my home country in childhood days, the insights into the scene with ski producers acting like Russian oligarchs, and the overall light and charming and humorous tone, I was positively surprised how much this movie got to me. Loved it!
