Joining forces with some unsavory [[Rubber Forehead Aliens|Rubber Forehead]]... and face... [[Rubber Forehead Aliens|Aliens]] offering their <s>technology</s> friendship, [[The Federation]] decides that the [[Alien Non-Interference Clause|Prime Directive]] is optional so that they can relocate the new-agey [[Space Amish]] inhabitants of a paradise planet. After all, [[Utopia Justifies the Means]], right? The ''Enterprise'' crew uncovers the plot and rebels against Starfleet (hence the title) to save the day.

With bigger guns, the rekindling of the Riker/Troi romance, and a generally out-of-character original cast, the movie is a far cry from ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'', clearly created to draw in a broader audience. It is considered by some to be among the worst of the Trek films, though not without its merits.

=== Tropes seen in ''Insurrection'' include: ===

* [[Badass Boast]]: "We're through running from these bastards."

* [[Beauty Equals Goodness]]: Thanks to centuries of living with eternal youth, the Ba'ku look like catalog models
