Last Jedi or First Contact?
What's the best 8th movie out of them?
shareFirst Contact. Probably the best Trek film overall, certainly the best TNG one. Had a great story, the Borg are always good value (particularly here since significant time is spent on how Picard has been affected by his Locutus experience), and we finally get to see a (if not the) pivotal moment in human history: the first warp flight (along with it's all-too-human creator/pilot) and subsequent first contact with an alien species. It just worked as a Trek movie. It's the second highest rated Trek film on IMDB, not counting the reboot films (7.6, just pipped by Wrath of Khan at 7.7). It is an excellent film, even more so given that it's the 8th in the series.
