This doc alleges to be about how Start Trek affects others. However, it's at least half Shatner talking about himself, things then and now, instead of actual interviews. He cuts people off in order to talk about himself, both making fun of himself and tooting his own horn. Apparently Shatner is afraid fans don't know what he thinks about Star Trek from the fourty-three hundred and seventy-one other Star Trek docs he's said this stuff in for 30+ years already. Did you know he loves horses? Minutes spent early on showing him driving on his ranch and kissing a horse in case you didn't hear about his horse fetish in 85 to 90% of the previous docs and in all the making of docs on all the Star Trek movies where he rode a horse(s). Did you know Shatner loves horses? I don't know if you heard the past 50 years other than the 5,000 times you've heard, William Shatner has a horse fetish. 15 minutes in and we've seen Shatner sit in a Captain's chair, be denied entrance because he didn't have a ticket to the Star Trek exhibit (very unfunny), playing with a Captain Kirk doll and oh, yeah, he loves horses in case you haven't heard that before. He love horses folks. Folks, he loves horses. Ben Stiller, the first person not Shatner, shows up over 11 minutes in then we see Shatner telling Stiller, a maniac Star Trek fan, things Stiller (and everybody else) already knows instead of letting Stiller finish any thought on how Star Trek affected him, affected Ben Stiller, not The Big Giant Head William Shatner. If you love egomaniac William Shatner, you'll love this, if you love hearing the same stories you've heard him tell 5,000 times before that is. If you're expecting an actual doc on how Star Trek affected anybody other than Shatner, don't hold your breath.
