There are no real surprises in this ponderous journey to the final frontier, in which Admiral Kirk hijacks the starship Enterprise to help in the rejuvenation of the deceased Spock on the planet Genesis. It's a good character-driven story, marred by Leonard Nimoy's workmanlike direction, a pseudo-mystical ending and an all-pervasive funereal tone that permeates every frame. Amazing special effects supply the wonder and emotional charge missing from what is, in essence, nothing more than a bloated TV episode.

"...Gung-ho spirit....[Cast and crew] all seem to believe wholeheartedly in the STAR TREK saga...[and it] goes a long way toward making the material touching..."

An Ok film
The search for spock follows on from the Wraith of Khan following Kirk and the Enterprise crew stealing the ship and travelling back to Genesis to rescue their fallen comrade.
Not the best of the original cast Star Trek Films, however not the worst (Star Trek Five). Does however manage to pull it off with moments like the thief of the Enterprise and the punch up between Kirk and the Klingon commander (Christopher Lloydd). Would recommend to anyone who is a vivid fan of the original series. -

Nowhere near as bad as I remembered!
I remember this as one of the poorer Star Trek movies (the old odd-numbered curse) but actually having just watched it soon after ST II-The Wrath Of Khan it's actually pretty good. Not much Spock (obviously) but it has some great moments for McCoy, Scotty and Sulu and a good punch up for Kirk at the end. I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it so I can't tell you what happens but there is a moment when William Shatner really HAS to act and he rises to the task magnificently. He conveys the shock and pain his character would be feeling perfectly. He's utterly believable and it's a genuinely moving scene. So if your memories of this ST movie are that it's not so good - try it again maybe you'll be as pleasantly surprised as I was. My 11 year old daughter loved it too!
