Re Janeway as a Captain ... I think she was fine. More along the lines of Kirk than Picard, and you also have to remember her background was as a science officer, rather than command. So her approach was more likely to be to investigate, examine, and come up with possible nonviolent solutions, but... after awhile, like most scientists, she'll just get fed up and do what needs to be done. My favorite line is when she tells the alien, "I don't like you!" rather than trying to talk the alien to death, as would Picard.
