Worst designed movie of all the Trek's


Everyone talks about the story being like an extended TNG episode , but I don't often see people mention how much this looked like a recycled episode in it's design. The Sona designs, the Baku and their boring tv backlot village and left over TNG brown planet costumers and the just overall dull designs over everything really drag this movie down. It doesn't help that Sony Imageworks fell down on the job with the terrible VFX.

Look at Star Trek II and how well the costumes and the set designs were. There was interesting look to everything, Insurrection looks like it was thrown together with the bland left overs from TNG.

Agreed. It looks far far cheaper and more hastily thought out than First Contact. That movie made some $$ too so that's curious to have a downgrade in this area.
I feel Insurrection actually has a good story and deserved more in production value.
Nemesis had a lot more in terms of production value as well, so this one sort of sticks out.
