Here's mine:

  1. The Undiscovered Country

  2. Wrath of Khan

  3. Voyage Home

  4. Motion Picture

  5. Search for Spock

  6. Generations

  7. First Contact

  8. Final frontier

  9. Insurrection

  10. Nemesis

I'm not a fan of any of the Kelvinverse films, BUT if forced to rank them, it would be like this:

  1. Beyond
  2. Into Darkness
  3. Star Trek

EDIT: Apparently everyone on this website is insane

  1. Star Trek VI - The Undiscovered Country - Wild card, I watched this with my dad, so it's my overall favorite for personal reasons. I'll defer to others on whether it really belongs at #1.
  2. First Contact - Viola Davis is a national treasure and her performance elevates this film.
  3. Voyage Home - The OG cast performing in peak conditions.
  4. Wrath of Khan - It's ricidulous to put this masterpiece this low on my list. I'm sorry, and I will rethink my life.
  5. Generations - Has a little is everything. I probably rank it higher because it is a celebration of Trek history. But that said, for the number of cast and cameos, this is a surprisingly great movie.
  6. 09 Yes, it's a popcorn blockbuster, but Chris Helmsworth's opening scene is a masterful performance, and plenty of solid Star Trek follows. Zoe Saldana is a national treasure and elevates this movie. Leonard Nimoy delivers another fantastic performance.
  7. Beyond - The Yorktown is one of the coolest things I've seen in scifi, and the movie is solid.
  8. Nemesis - An important chapter in Brent Spiner's decades long perfected Pinochio story.
  9. Into darkness - Zoe Saldana is a national treasure and is unfortunately not in the remaining films in my list. I'm saying this tongue-in-cheek since plenty of Trek actors deserve highlighted here.

After this point, I really like the remaining films, but not enough to have strong feelings to rank them.

10-12) Search, Insurrection, Final Frontier

...

  1. The Motion Picture - Still a pretty great film, but the pacing issues prevent me from rewatching it often.
