on film...Star Trek

--------------------------

Star Trek: The Motion Picture:

This is hypnotic epic Star Trek. The problem with it is is that it cannot match the classier TV episodes for story-telling.

Where it fails on memorability and impact it makes up for in dreaminess and intoxication.

--------------------------

Star Trek 2: The Wrath Of Khan:

I felt the welling of moistness...I mean, I nearly wept. I'm not sure how the Spock death scene was for non-Star Trek fans but for me I was so bloody moved and declared it the greatest piece of acting (from both Nimoy and Shatner) ever!

--------------------------

Star Trek VI : The Undiscovered Country

The best trekkie film: it rewards repeat watches due to its multi-layered story and infective acting. Not grand or spectacular, just great Star Trek.
