Caught a bit of the ST marathon on the Sci-fi channel over the weekend, and I ended up watching both TMP and Nemesis for the first time in years. TMP is still too long and quite boring in parts, but I still enjoy the chemistry between the characters/actors and the overall story is actually pretty cool. If they had shortened it to TV length, it would have made for a great episode of the series.
Nemesis is just an awful movie in almost every aspect. Solid performance by Tom Hardy though. I always forget that was one of his first major film roles. Other than Patrick Stewart who always seems to bring his best no matter what the circumstances, the rest of the main cast look like they're sleepwalking their way through the film.
