| Review : |
OK, I've seen "The Enemy", and "Darmok" for that matter. Redoing them might seem like a good idea, but not this sort of blatant rip-off. However, it was still a reasonable episode in its own right, with the classic Trek message that co-operation is best. It's nowhere near as good as "Darmok" (also with linguistic problems) but up with "The Enemy", I suppose. The Arkonians are pretty standard hostile aliens who don't like Vulcans, and you could probably have substituted any number of other species for them. Trip went through the wringer, and Connor Trineer put in a good-enough performance, I suppose. On it's own, this is a half-decent episode, but we've seen it all before. Just about worth a star. |
