First Contact was an amazing movie. It had flaws, but it succeeded for the first time (for me, at least) at translating the in-universe fear the characters had of the Borg to the audience. There’s a difference between routine invincibility and scary. Throughout TNG, the Borg were merely another overpowered threat enemy that you had to be tricksy to beat. But in FC, they were terrifying, and I think the production team did an outstanding job. At times, it was like watching the first Alien.

Impressed the heck out of me.
