The only problem with this is that, while I disagree with their methods, I actually agree with the intentions of the So'na and the Federation members working with them. Comparisons could be made to the forced removal of Native Americans from their lands. Picard asks, how many people have to be displaced before it becomes wrong.

Like the best of Star Trek, this movie tries to present a question of morality. Picard objects to the plan and defends the planet while Riker takes the Enterprise to alert the Federation Government and Starfleet to exactly what is happening. Certain members of the Federation, partnered with a race known as the So'na, plan to remove the 600 inhabitants of the planet so that they can harvest the radiation. Turns out that the planet's rings generate a radiation that acts as a fountain of youth. The gist of the plot has the Enterprise travel to a planet hidden in some kind of cloud to investigate why Commander Data, who has been temporarily assigned to monitor the planet, has gone berserk. In the previous film the crew was saving the Earth, this time around they're preserving the hippy lifestyle of 600 people. It contains a few nice character moments, but the central plot seems rather tame. Never is that more true than with Star Trek IX. My most common complaint about the Next Generation movies is that they often seem more like extended episodes from the television series than they do like movies.
