  A lot better than I remember this being. The easy comradeship between the crew is there, and some great action sequences involving the Klingons. And Doc brown ... read more »

  not bad, but still an odd number
  
  After the action packed spectacle that was the Wrath of Khan this is a much slower paced film which never reaches the heights of its predecessor. Having said ... read more »

  Deals with the fallout of Wrath of Khan and may disappoint those looking for action. I really like it, as it's mostly character stuff and it's Leonard ... read more »

  A bit of a filler...
  
  Compared to the second and fourth films this moves with slower pace although it is competently handled.

  Moving + Exciting
  
  Fantastic Star Trek film - I welled up when Kirk said 'The Klingon b*****d killed my son'. This is what Star Trek is all about.
