This big-screen sequel to the 1967 TV episode Space Seed is truer in spirit to the beloved space opera than the first feature and a firm favourite with some fans. Here, genetic superman Ricardo Montalban wreaks vengeance against the Enterprise crew for sending him to a prison colony. Nicholas Meyer — who also directed Star Trek VI — stresses the narrative values that made the original series so compelling and vibrantly weaves the thematic motifs of life, loss and adventure together as he expertly continues the saga. Leonard Nimoy has rarely been so moving.

The Best Trek!
KHAAAAN!
The second Trek installment went back to the Original Series and took the best elements, mixed them in with a good budget, fine story and top class direction. The result the best Trek movie ever.
The directors edition of this is a little redundant. There are a few little interesting aditions, but it is most notable fo rthe ommision of the confirmations of Savikks half Romulan parentage (showing that Kirsty Alley was not a poor actress by showing an emotional vulcan). The scene exists as any quick search on Google will get you an MPEG of Kirk and Spock discussing this after the Simulator exercise.
Mayers commentary is hard work to listen to. He's not exactly the captivating of speakers. But in the end who cares. Ricardo Montalban plays the ultimate adversary for Kirk and dominates every scene he is in. Shatner presents a more mature Kirk than in even later movies and the cast work well.
By far the best paced, most entertaining Trek movie. Enjoyable even for non-Trekkers. -

Greta movie, but don't bother with the bonus disc
The bonus disc is only a copy of the pc game 'Star Trek, New Worlds' and is not worth wasting time on!
