William Shatner's Get a Life!

Based on Shatner's successful book of the same name (in response to his now infamous 1986 skit on "Saturday Night Live" penned by Bob Odenkirk and Judd Apatow), the documentary examines the cultural phenomenon of Star Trek and its obsessed fans known as Trekkers. On the surface, the film is an exploration of annual strangers who attend Star Trek conventions, looking somewhat foolish to observers - but Shatner, fully embracing his role as Captain James T. Kirk, uncovers the many secrets and motives behind the Trekkers' compulsion to attend. The result: a fun, touching film that gets to the heart of the thrill of these fantasy conventions and the enduring popularity of the Star Trek franchise.
