Filmmaker and New Yorker film critic Richard Brody's thoughts on the prequels.
Time

Please explain why you think that.

The Motion Picture is an undeniably great film.

The Final Frontier has lots of issues but the Yosemite scenes are quintessential Trek, Sybok is great, and the search for God is interesting.
Lots of good Kirk/Spock/McCoy moments throughout as well.

Nemesis gets a baffling amount of hate.
Hardy knocks it out of the park, the romulans are always interesting, Spiner is great, THE RAMMING SCENE, the scorpion fyler in the hallways, the cool idea of picard having a clone… And on and on.

I couldn’t make it through that article. What an embarrassment for the New Yorker to have to be forever associated with such nonsense. I can’t help but think it’s trolling because of the part describing the “unlimited power” line as something to cheer for. It reminds me of a critic on rotten tomatoes who gave every Star Trek film a negative review except for Star Trek V: the Final Frontier, saying, “Who knew it just needed William Shatner in the director’s seat to breathe new life to the franchise” or something like that, which just has to be a fraudulent joke.

For the record, the best Trek films are 1, 5, and 10.
