Yeah since when did Picard shoot first and ask questions latter. The situation in Insurrection is exactly the type of thing he would have talked his way out of on the show, why did it need to turn into a blood bath again. Also once we get the plot twist that the Baku kicked the Sona off of the planet and now they are dying slowly and painfully there are no straight up good guys. Now on the show Picard would have refused to take sides once he learned this and used it to force some sort of truce but in the movie he just uses it as another excuse to kill Sona. The twist didn't change anything so what was the point and Picard is so out of character I don't even think of him as Picard.
I grew up with TNG and I hate the movies because of this, it's painful to admit but it is true. I can't stand the TNG movies.
What stuck out for me in FC, was his almost casual writing off any crew member who had been assimilated. Never mind he's living proof you can be de-borgified, shoot to kill!
If he had ever met Seven of Nine, that would have been a really awkward conversation. ;)
I have thought this many times myself.
