Insurrection and Nemesis are worse by far. I find Insurrection totally unwatchable. They also mirror the classic films in some ways.
Generations = their Star Trek The Motion Picture. A fat turkey of a film that satisfies pretty much no-one. Kirk meets Picard; big who cares? They should'a stuck with Nimoy's idea.
First Contact = their Trek II + Trek IV. A slam-bang film with a strong villain who creates enough menace making the film a hit. Also a time travel sub-plot is thrown in because they are the most bankable of SF plots. The film basically steals elements from Aliens & Terminator films. Proves TNG can work in films while still being unoriginal.
Insurrection = their Star Trek III in that Starfleet proves they are a bunch of smelly doofuses by not doing what Picard wants. So the capt. & crew get to change their costumes to do a little moonlighting as mutineers.
Nemesis = their Trek 5 + 6. A tired old plot, the twin, is used for both Picard & Data at the same time while the fate of Starfleet hangs in the balance.

....it was TNG's Star Trek 5.....I have said it before....Rick Berman is a complete moron...the only good thing he ever did for trek was to help Gene R. when he started to lose it (and that happened way before most people realise)....Generations should have been handled totally different.....they let the wrong writers write it
