In which Trek movie is Starfleet best represented

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

TVH: Probably the best example of Starfleet at its best. During the Probe Crisis, they are quick to respond even though the entire planetary defense system and the ships in the system are disabled. The President issues a general warning.

Yet despite Starfleet's experience with hundreds of species, Spock is the only person to decipher the probe's signal...

And pretty much instantly, as well.

Also, considering that he had his brain deep fried in the last movie and wasn't exactly working on "all thrusters."

^ Eh maybe he overheard the whale song on his 23rd Century VTech Learning Computer?

I'm sorry to say Insurrection but I can understand their reasoning. They were, after all, in the middle of a galactic war.

Nah it was on the Surak Speak-and-Spell.

To be fair about TVH, the people on the ground were rather beleaguered on multiple levels. Spock was able to approach the situation from a better vantage point.
