Pros: special effects are great, story not as bad as I remembered Cons: Saavik recast, killing off Kirk's son
...but I was really upset with this movie for a long time.
Star Trek lore has it that Leonard Nimoy himself wanted Spock killed off in The Wrath of Khan and the writers followed through on it - sort of. Supposedly, at the...
Pros: Establishes the crew beyond their shipboard setting, comedy, special effects Cons: Establishes the Klingons as THE villains for the next 4 movies, not enough Spock
What would you do for a friend?
I may have seen the last 40 minutes of this movie more than any other movie. Ever. My brother and I (we're kind of like Frasier and Niles Crane, but much much geekier) recorded "Star Trek III" when it was on...
Pros: Good story, wonderful villain (Kruge), nifty effects and score. Cons: Modest budget shows more in this movie than on Star Trek II.
After the success of Nicholas Meyer's Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, it soon became apparent that the Trek franchise could continue, with or without Spock. Despite rumors to the contrary, Leonard Nimoy had never stipulated in his contract for Star ...
Pros: The good old days are revived Cons: They need a little more resuscitation
OK, Is it my interest in space travel, or is it nostalgia? Is it because I was a captive audience when Star Trek was a TV series? Is it because my oldest son was and is a fan of Star Trek and Gene Roddenberry? To be honest, I don’t know –...
Pros: Great effects, good continuity, decent acting. Cons: Robin Curtis as Saavik, not quite as good as II and IV.
Star Trek fans are a curious lot. After their beloved TV series was canceled in 1967, they protested, wrote NBC to restore the show, and, when that didn’t work, stumped for a big screen version of their favorite Sci-fi adventure. When they got that ...
Pros: completes the circle, authentic characterisation Cons: violent, slow, could have had more action and confrontation
It is the 23rd century and the starship Enterprise, under Admiral James T. Kirk, limps home to Earth, battle-scarred but triumphant after their fight to the death with the galactic terrorist Khan Noonien Singh and his band of ...
Pros: Hmmmm....a couple of good action sequences. Cons: Disjointed, low budget, illogical captain.
With such an ambivalent title for the third movie (do you sense a little sarcasm there) that really doesn’t leave much to your imagination, you ponder how the crew of the Enterprise will manage to find and save Spock’s soul. After two movies, ...
Pros: Intense emotional expression of characters Cons: Too violent, in my personal opinion
Most people who love the original Star Trek television series and the subsequent movies were in a state of shock after the airing of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. In that film, one of the main characters, Mr. Spock, died while rescuing the...
Pros: Continuity, effects, level of character
Cons: Basic Implausibility
Star Trek III: The Search For Spock" succeeds as a perfect film when combined with its predecessor. That is, the ideal way to experience this is to sit down for a night with "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn" (reviewed at: ...
Pros: Performances from most of the cast, good lead villain, story Cons: lead villain only a one-shot appearance, some special effects don't hold up, character development
Not long after the funeral of "Spock" (Leonard Nimoy) and the reassignment of most of the "Enterprise" training crew, the Federation flag ship is on her way back to Spacedock for decommissioning. "Chief Medical Officer Leonard McCoy" (the late ...
Pros: The movies are getting better Cons: None if you like Star Trek
Yes I know this is my third Star Trek review in a row but I am determined - if hubby insists on making me watch the films, then I am going to share my opinions with all my fellow reviewers here! This can be acquired on the net for just a few dollars ...
Pros: Christopher Lloyd, visual effects. Cons: Nimoy is behind camera, not in front, and lack of crew involvement.
”He’s not really gone, if we find a way to remember him…”
From the shadow of the wrath of Khan and the birth of a new planet and system, our heroes return to Earth weak from battle and cheerless from the loss of their beloved Captain...
Pros: "One. One, A. Two, B." Cons: "One, B. Two, B. Three."
"Star Trek III: The Search for Spock" takes all of the principal characters rather beyond the final frontier, to which, at the beginning, we hear Leonard Nimoy offering the same paean that opened every episode of the original series. Spock, for one, ...
Admiral Kirk s defeat of Khan and the creation of the Genesis planet are empty victories. Spock is dead and McCoy is inexplicably being driven insane....More at Buy.com Marketplaces
