This is a bad film. Some inside jokes which are clever, but it's a ridiculous film. It's interesting seeing Manu Intiraymi (who plays Icheb in ST:V),but makes you wonder why no one cast him as Icheb in Picard. Overall it's terrible, and it's clearly meant to be that way. What's disturbing though, is IMDBs inability to stop fake reviews from users that are clearly promoting. A ten star rating for this film would be appropriate, if it was 10/1000.

Bad.
Unbelievable is right!
A few years ago, I was at a Star Trek convention in Las Vegas and saw that there was a free screening of "Unbelievable!!!!!" in a nearby hotel. I didn't have a lot of interest in seeing it but was convinced by one of the producers to see it when he learned I was working for a website that specialized in film reviews. I absolutely hated it...and later the same guy begged me NOT to post my review so I didn't. Years have passed and I notice that the film was finally released and I may as well post my impressions of the film to IMBD...mostly to warn you!
Before I get to this, I should note that I briefly talked to one of the actors who was in the film, Tim Russ. At first he couldn't immediately remember being in the movie but when he DID remember, he rolled his eyes and said something rather derogatory about it.... I can't remember exactly what but it was clear he regretted appearing in the film. I could understand why!
The film stars a lot of B and C-list actors...many of which used to appear on various Star Trek shows. Additionally, Snoop Dog, Gilbert Gottfried and a few others were in the picture. While I love Star Trek.... I just can't pretend that the film was good or that it was funny. I am a fan...but NOT one who blindly enjoys everything Trek related.
The story is dopey. A crazy humanoid plant (Gilbert Gottfried) is angry at the human race and he (it?) is somehow turning all the people of the Earth...and Moon...into plants. So, it's up to a team of incompetents to somehow save the day.
As I mentioned above, the film is cheap and, I might add, cheesy. The special effects are deliberately terrible, the main character (obviously modeled after William Shatner) is a marionette much like the ones seen in Team America: World Police and it's chock full of very bad jokes and silliness. But, having seen this at the recent Star Trek mega-convention in Las Vegas, I also know that most of the folks at the convention will love the film because it makes many allusions to Star Trek and they'll get to see many of their favorite stars in action. As for everyone else, unless you love deliberately bad films (such as "The Toxic Avenger"),stay clear as many of the jokes won't make as much sense and you won't have the same nostalgic connection with most of the cast. Overall, a very hard film to rate...and I think I sort of liked it despite its many, many deficiencies....but I'd have to be drunk to want to see it again.
NOTE: A lot of super high scores and reviews that were one or two sentences in length were all made about the same time for this bad film. While I might be wrong, usually this means the filmmakers are trying to do damage control and pump up a bad film's ratings. I've seen it several times...particularly with small independent films. I wish IMDB would consider removing them, as they simply don't reflect the quality of the film AND are so short they're not even reviews. For shame.
Terrible - do not waste your time or money
I had high hopes, having waited years for this. But it's awful. The humor is very simple. "Sophomoric", if the sophomores were actually 6-grade boys.
