    It falls victim to the old SciFi trope “The only way to beat a Good Protagonist is with an Evil Protagonist”. And like all the Picard-Era movies, it has a habit of forgetting what made the television series gripping. Perhaps because it’s always afraid of doing something with a character that they can’t undo with a handwave by the time the credits roll.

      If you are unware, Spiner and writer John Logan has since gone on to say this year that Data did not die. Effectively they have retroactively contradicted the events of PIC.

        There’s lots of ways to do that.

        Huh?

        Okay, it’s been a very long time since I watched that movie, but as I recall, he very clearly died. I know they went on to bring him back to life a hundred different times in PIC, though. Is that what they meant?
