Akron Beacon Journal, Mark Dawidziak,

Grade: B,

"Trekkies is a frequently hilarious documentary that examines the distinctly American institution known as the Star Trek convention. Yet in a larger sense, this is a study of fan behavior at its most obsessive - and its most wacky. ... Look, somewhere during this film it should occur to you that there isn't much separating the rabid Trekker from the baseball nut wearing a favorite player's number who memorizes decades worth of batting averages.... So while you're laughing your asteroid off at Trekkies, remember that the laugh might be on you."
