Summary: Beutiful Film
Review: The first Star Trek adventure is a true masterpiece but unfortuneately it's extremly under-rated, mostly by people who just want action and speed. This movie isn't about that at all and it's probably good to have in mind before watching it. In this one there's a lot of long slow shots over spaceships and visual landscapes and the greatness lies in the conversations and the atmosphere in the film. If you sit down with a clear mind and just let you self sink into the movie you will find a great experience. If you're just into Action-Si-fi you better stay away from it. Definately one of the best Star Trek movies with the first generation- which will always be the one and only true crew. Long live Captain Kirk and Spock.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the more "Pure" Trek Movies
Review: ST:TMP was overall a good film, I thought. It had excellent effects, good acting, a mysterious musical score, and some intersting ideas. Not bad at all. It's plot was "Pure", hard sci-fi that just happened to take place in the Star Trek universe, which I think alienates viewers today a bit, since all the later Treks invented their own sci-fi.

Heres a good Idea for Star Trek 10. The return of V'ger. V'ger moved on to higher dimensions at the end of the film, but I'm sure that he/she/it still remembers it's "Creator". Why not have it return to Earth and have some really cool things ensue, like the exploration of other dimensions with V'ger's guidence. Get a little bit of "exploration" back into Trek, since exploration is what is all about anyway, which Brannon Bragga has apparantly forgotten about. Think about it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Wake me up when it's over
Review: As a devout Star Trek fan, I faithfully saw this film in the theater when it made its local debut. The individual entrances of the key players like William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, and DeForest Kelley even drew applause from the audience. Unfortunately, it appears the producers of this flick wanted to stretch the plot intended for an hour-long episode of the TV show into a two-and-a-half hour feature motion picture. Despite all its special effects, the movie is just too long and slow moving to keep even the most ardent of Trek fans interested.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: horribly boring
Review: I really did NOT like this movie. It put me to sleep. I had to watch it in three sittings. I do not recommend it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: My "Star Trek The Motion Picture" Review
Review: To sum this film accurately enough in one sentence: It's only effective as a cure for insomnia. This was the worst of the "Star Trek" films simply due to the fact that it's extremely dull. I've tried to watch it a few times over the past 10 years or so and come dangerously close to falling asleep each time-I'm not exaggerating.

The films special effects (which the film relied too much on) and musical score are astounding, however. If it weren't for those 2 elements, I would only give the film one star. The first 30 minutes are entertaining, but from there it goes straight downhill. Despite all of "Star Trek V"'s flaws, at least it wasn't boaring as "TMP" was.

I do plan to purchase the film on DVD solely due to the fact that I want to see the theatrical trailer. I really enjoy those. Too bad "Generations" didn't have one.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: special longer version explains things better
Review: This film has grown on me over the years. I can only hope when it is finally released in DVD that it is the Special Longer Version in Widescreen. I did as another reviewer suggested. Watched it again with the Borg element of V-ger's existence. Wow--that explains alot!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: V'ger is Borg!!!
Review: After reading the great novel by William Shatner, 'The Return', i was compelled to re-watch this movie again. In Shatner's novel, we learn that the planet of living machines that Voyager 6 discovered was actually the BORG HOMEWORLD! That single revelation alone make this good movie into an awesome movie. Spock had mind melded with V'ger, and in turn that saved him from being assimilated a century later by the Borg. I recommend to everyone that is a Borg fan to read 'The Return' and then watch STTMP. Severe coolness.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Still one of the best SciFi movies around.
Review: I admit it is a bit dull at sometimes, but considering the time it was made and the rather intriguing storyline, this is a winner!

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: very disappointing
Review: this film has some very good special effects,but the film goes on way too long,is very dull,and lots of times the camera tends to focus on special effects,just for the sake of showing off all the effects they created. if this film wasn't so long,it might have been passable entertainment.
