RANKED: All the 'Star Trek' movies from worst to best

Star Trek is arguably the greatest science fiction television series of all-time — if for no other reason than its lasting influence on the genre.

But the franchise has also seen a solid run on the big screen.

And so, in honor of the thirteenth movie installment — "Star Trek Beyond" — hitting the theaters on July 22, we ranked all the Star Trek movies from worst to best.

12. Nemesis

"Nemesis" came out right in between the Voyager and Enterprise shows, at a time when everyone was feeling pretty burnt out from mediocre Star Trek overexposure. The movie also wasted its star talent by not giving much attention to the fan-favorite characters. 

Two of the actors, LeVar Burton and Marina Sirtis, also once said that the director of the movie, Stuart Baird, had never actually seen a single episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation."

As a fun note, the main bad guy was played Tom Hardy.

Data: It appears to be a robotic arm.

Worf: [Sarcastically.] Very astute.

11. The Final Frontier

"The Final Frontier" was, honestly, pretty dull: there's not that much suspense, the plot is pretty disjointed, and the jokes lacked the usual Star Trek spark.

Memorable quote:

[Kirk goes to hug Spock.]

Spock: Please, Captain. Not in front of the Klingons.

10. Into Darkness

This movie is basically a microcosm for everything wrong with Star Trek movies: it seems like the people who made the film are not quite sure whether they should court the hardcore Star Trek fans or they should pander to the action movie lovers.

Also, as George Takei, who played Sulu in the original series, noted, it might've been more interesting to see Benedict Cumberbatch as a new character, rather than as Khan.

Memorable quote:

Bones: Don't agree with me, Spock. It makes me very uncomfortable.

Spock: Perhaps you, too, should learn to govern your emotions, Doctor.
