Summary: THE BEST OF ALL
Review: Leonard 'SPOCK' Nimoy once again directs his fellow starship crew members [He directed the 3rd film also]. This film has 3 GREAT qualities: (1) It's the BEST of ALL the 'TREK' movies, (2) It returns to a tried and true 'TREK' formula - time travel, (3) It is the GREATEST 'SAVE THE WHALES' movie ever made.
Rating: 
Summary: Unspeakable.
Review: By far the worst of the Trek Films. It makes the Search for Spock look like Grand Illusion. As a series, the Star Trek Films have been going downhill since The Wrath of Khan. The attempts at humor remain attempts. The characterizations are sketchy. The situations are cliched. And the ridiculousness of a two-hour Save The Whale commercial lifts this turkey right into Ed Wood territory.

Summary: The best of the Star Trek movies!
Review: This movie captures the Star Trek essence better than any Star Trek movie to date. The action, character interaction, sense of humor and the bravado that made the original Star Trek T.V. show great are all apparent in this film. The story is superb, and the situations the characters find themselves in provide wonderful opportunities for them to exhibit the personalities and quirks that make them so endearing. While some of the other Star Trek movies dwell too much on getting old, this movie portrays the crew as the confident, vigorous, adventurous, fun-loving people they are meant to be. Captain Kirk should not be portrayed as a man who is beginning to feel antiquated or pushed aside in the name of youth and progress. It just doesn't fit the character. In this movie, Captain Kirk is Captain Kirk and that is one of the things that elevates this "Trek" film above the others. To sum it all up, this is the only Star Trek movie that ranks right up there with the most memorable of the episodes from the original series. In my opinion, that is the best compliment any Star Trek movie or T.V. episode can possibly receive.

Summary: The Best Star Trek movie ever with the original cast.
Review: After the events of Star Trek II and III, Leonard Nimoy decited it was time to lighten up a bit and make the fourth movie has a light comedy/adventure type of story. Star Trek IV; The Voyage Home is the most faithful film to follow the continuniy of the television series. James T. Kirk and his crew travel to 20th century Earth to rescue two humpback whales and bring them back to their own era to talk to an alien probe which is threantening to destroy earth. great comedy and one-liners come as the people from the future try to fit in with 20th century cuture, but not always succeeding. Great performances by whole cast including Catherine Hicks as Dr. Gillian Taylor, who gets to return with the whales to the 23rd Century. The end is really touching as Jim Kirk and his crew get a new starship, Enterprise NCC-1701-A. The best movie they ever made. Story by Leonard Nimoy and Harve Bennett.Screenplay by Steve Meerson and Peter Krikes and Harve Bennett and Nicholas Meyer.Directed by Leonard Nimoy.Music by Leonard Rosenman.Visual Effects by Industrail Light and Magic.

Summary: Kirk etc in their most unusual setting yet - the 1980s
Review: Possibly the best of the Star Trek films - thought-provoking, well-paced and with nice comedic touches and genuinely gripping scenes. Certainly a moral warning about unexpected consequences of human actions.

Summary: A whale of a time? hahahahahah.........
Review: This is a classic example of a TOS movie that should have been a single episode. It stretches ON AND ON until you just have to hit the "cue" button, you're so tired of seeing whales singing underwater!!!! I was also quite annoyed by Spock's endeavor to add swear words to his vocabulary . . . guess it was supposed to be funny, but all it got out of me was disgusted sighs. Not only that, the scene toward the end with the whaling ship was FORCED CONFLICT at its best--did anybody think for a minute those whales were going to DIE?? I think the whole episode was thought up to stretch out the crew's "Voyage Home," and the best scene was the last one, where Kirk is officially demoted back to captain. Not only that, "Miss Marine Biologist" (her name was GILLIAN, guys!!) was extremely annoying--way too flighty for my taste. However, as usual Nimoy and Shatner managed to transcend the script . . . which is the only thing that keeps this movie from getting a single star.

Summary: I LOVE THIS MOVIE PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW
Review: hey this movie is the best!!!!!!! I love it!! but in many of the Star Trek Shows (such as The City on the Edge of Forever) one of the members of the Enterprise crew uses the word "hell" but Spock does not seem to know how to use it in the film but who cares this movie is great!!

Summary: A WHALE OF A TIME!
Review: Not the loyalist of the Star Trek films, it is decidely humourous, and easy on the eyes. Her of the marine biology (now on 7th Heaven with ex-Trekker Steven Collins), adds a new dimension to the Star Trek series - someone from the past now joins the future! Her single-mindedness fits right in to the 23rd century as we are to see it. Keystone slapsticks are made to fit, and "late 20th century" issues are paraded with an undignified parody. Perhaps best with Junior Mints and buttered popcorn mixed together.

Summary: delicious fun and humor, even for the Spock-impaired
Review: The first time I saw this movie, I didn't like its distracting late-eighties setting, but when I viewed it again several years later... I began to appreciate its humor. My favorite visual stills: Spock's crossing a San Franciscan street and his flowing Vulcan robe's graceful accentuation of his long-limbed movement; his little dip with the whales in Alameda; and the lovely sequence of Spock's rendering unconscious a particularly abrasive punk on the BART with his Vulcan neck pinch. If you are a Spock fan, you'll love this film, where his nascent memory restoration gives his character a frustrating but adorable naivete, and where one gets a rare, more three dimensional peek at how the other members of the Enterprise function when they are AWAY from the inflated, eclipsing presence of William Shatner (Mr. Creosote's mental twin?). Even if you're not a trekkie, I think you will enjoy this film for its lack of esoteric trek culture and technobabble (despite Shatner's titanic ego, which mushrooms in all things trek anyway). Star Trek IV: the Voyage Home is a thoroughly entertaining experience with an ethical message too: save the whales to prevent apocalypse. Lulu Hansen

Summary: Best Trek yet
Review: Kirk and the crew go back to 1986 to rescue a bunch of dolphins. Awfully entertaining and wildly funny entry in the series. Leonard Nimoy dos a terrific job directing, such a pity he didn't direct any of the others after this one (not that I don't like the ones after this). I really enjoyed this, you should at least rent it whether you are a trekky or not.
