The Guardian

This affectionate, no-budget documentary about Star Trek fans plays like a DVD extra that escaped from its box-set. The focus is the Klingon "language" and the Trekkies who speak it.
They gather in cheap hotel rooms to explain their passions. One admits that he spoke nothing but Klingon to his son for several years, while another brags that his "reputation in paintball precedes me". My favourite was the excitable "Captain Krankor" who belts out his self-penned anthem at Star Trek conventions, pausing only to push up the plastic Klingon forehead that keeps falling over his eyes.
