Shatner: Kick the little fucker’s ass.
This movie sadly got overshadowed by the much more popular Galaxy Quest (review), which went into general release later in the same year. Both were affectionate spoofs/tributes to the phenomenon of Star Trek fandom, although Free Enterprise’s targets cover a broader spectrum of popular culture. That’s also the film’s chief flaw, a lack of discipline and a need for some editing.
