- 80Los Angeles TimesGene SeymourLos Angeles TimesGene SeymourA laid-back excursion through the "Star Trek" phenomenon that boldly goes where millions and millions of fans have gone--in and out of costume.
- 78Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovAustin ChronicleMarc SavlovTrekkies is a hilarious work, mining the psychology of the average and not-so-average Trek fan, and coming up with the answers to all your burning questions about the show and its devoted following.

- 60L.A. WeeklyManohla DargisL.A. WeeklyManohla DargisRoger Nygards’ sweet, gently funny documentary about the wild and woolly fans of all things Star Trek doesn’t really reveal much about the original landmark series and its various spinoffs, nor does it ever really get to the heart of the shows’ enduring appeal.
- 50ReelViewsJames BerardinelliReelViewsJames BerardinelliIt's a muddled, meandering affair without a thesis or a point to prove.
