This modest but likeable movie is driven by a sincere love of the screenwriters' childhood kitsch, with Star Trek dominant above all--although Logan's Run, the X-Men, Planet of the Apes, and dozens of other science fiction touchstones of the 1970s have been worked in as well. Even an action figurine of almighty Isis, from the Saturday morning TV show, plays a major role in the plot, if plot is the right word. The story follows two guys on the fringe of the movie industry: Robert (Rafer Wiegel) edits movies like Teen Bimbo Beach Assault, while Mark (Eric McCormack from Will and Grace) is writing a screenplay about a serial killer who murders all the characters from The Brady Bunch. The movie touches on their career struggles but spends most of its time with their floundering love lives, suggesting that their pop-culture programming may not be the best model for life. The actors are clearly enjoying themselves, and the writing makes its innumerable pop references with wit, but what really makes the movie work is William Shatner. Shatner plays himself with affectionate but cutting self-mockery, simultaneously lampooning Star Trek obsessiveness and Hollywood egotism in general. Shatner displays not only a more subtle sense of humor than he's ever shown before, but also a surprising vulnerability. He may have alienated a lot of his fans when he did that Saturday Night Live sketch telling them to get a life ("It was just a TV show!"), but his performance in Free Enterprise may just win them back. --Bret Fetzer

Customer Reviews of Free Enterprise (Widescreen Edition)

Could have been so much better!
Set up in part as a parody of Star Trek, comic books, Science Fiction and Horror movies and series, Free Enterprise brings to the screen the story of two geeky friends nearing their thirties as they go about their life with their every day problems, until one day they meet their number one hero, William Shatner, by chance and their whole world comes undone... <
>As a major fan of comics and Science fiction, I was rather disappointed with the film in that the actors' performances are not that great, the plot and the music are mediocre, while the dialogues/humor could have been a LOT better. <
>One good thing that comes out if it is Audie England who was delightful as Claire; let's see more of her! <
>The potential for a good movie was definitely there, but it somehow fails to take off. A shame really... <
>In all honesty it's pretty bad, though if you're a fan you might want to give it a try. <

Clerks For Trekkies But Not As Funny
Free Enterprise has it's moments, but it goes from straight out Trek comedy to a romantic drama/comedy with little references to Star Trek. The movie starts off with one kid trying to get into the theater to see Star Trek: The Motion Picture, while another kid in school is fighting a bully who is picking on him for wearing a gold Starfleet uniform like Kirk's. These two people grow up and become friends, and their dream comes true when they accidentally meet Shatner at a bookstore. After all of that, the film goes into drama mode when they start to fall in love with girls they meet and the movie feels like it drags since it can't live up to the beginning of the movie. <

>I liked the drama and romantic comedy, don't get me wrong, but with a name like "Free Enterprise" you would think that it would have more things related to Star Trek in it. The best scenes of the movie are the scenes with Shatner, he definitely steals the screen because no one can parody Shatner better than Shatner himself! Overall, this is a good movie that Trek fans of the original series will appreciate more than non-trekkies. The best parts of the movie are the beginning and end, the middle just leaves me asking myself "what?" It is almost a completely different movie, but all of the Shatner scenes are great! <

Beam up for this ENTERPRISE
William Shatner has done the ultimate parody of himself in Free Enterprise. The script takes satire to the max as Shatner plays an actor name William Shatner. He also sends up Star Trek and SF conventions <
> <
>Pre Will & Grace Eric McCormick and Rafer Weigel play two best friends who look up to Shatner as a mentor...and they find he is a real person <
> <
>For those fans of the Star Trek genre, this is almost as funny as Clerks <
> <
>go get this one! <
