Summary: The third-best Star Trek movie ever!
Review: The movie suffers a bit from a tight budget (ckeck out Valaris sliding down a ladder and hitting a bulkhead. The whole wall shakes. But all that aside this is the one of the strongest Trek films only bettered by II and First Contact. The principles of Star Trek are closely adhered to and the Cast Autograph sign off at the end of the movie was a GREAT way to end the last trek movie to have the complete old-series cast. This movie will not disappoint in the least and will keep you on the edge of your seat through the final act.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Star Trek 6 - Kilingons fate based on the late USSR
Review: Possiably the best, yet the saddest of all the Star Trek movies. A high paced action/thriller and a box office hit, but at the same time the end of a legend as it is the final voyage of the origional Enterprise cast. Although Nicholas Meyer admits that he not a mad Star Trek, he plays the camera as if it is, yet satisfying the "non-trekie" audience. There is a curious paralell between the collapse of the Kilingon Empire and the late Soviet Union.

This movie was the one that kept Star Trek movies alive, as after the disapointing success of Star Trek 5, the was great controversy about launching yet another Star Trek movie, thank goodness they did.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Mayer does worse than Shatner
Review: I feel this movie left some questions unanswered. Exactly what information in the ship's computer said that the shots were fired from the Enterprise? Although the scenes with the floating Klingon blood were impressive, I had always believed that phasers, when making a penetrating wound, cauterized that wound (remember the close-ups of smoking holes in uniforms?). So why, in this movie, do we have wounds that were not cauterized? Nicholas Mayer did superbly well in Wrath of Khan. But I feel that in this movie he did even worse than Shatner in Final Frontier.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding !!!!
Review: The cast is outstanding...Christopher Plummer is Outstanding as his evil portrail of General Chang. Something the newer Trek movies lack is the Shakespearean Quality the old movies gave their villians....if your looking for twists and turns....along with the old chemistry that made the series famous this is for you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dazzling
Review: Sentiment over whats ostensibaly the last of the Startrek films, nicely rounded off with the crews signatures. The film has everything, from excellent special effects to emotion. Not only do we see Klingon blood hanging out in a gravity lacking environment, but we also see ourselves in tears at the end of the movie, when the long and remembered friends leave the big screen after 25 years of the Star Trek Saga.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: STAR TREK VI ONE OF THE BEST OF THE FLICKS!!!
Review: I found STAR TREK VI THE UNDISCOVERD COUNTRY to be one the best ever from the special effects, musical score, and storyline. Everything that was sorely lacking in STAR TREK V is back in this film it deals with peace negoitations between the federation and the klingons and CAPTIN KIRK'S feelings of mistrust twoard the klingons. It turns out that there are others who feel the same way but I won't give it away finding out will suprise you that's all I have to say. GENE RODENNBERRY would have been proud of this film as the series gets back to it's roots. I thought NICHOLAS MYER and LEONARD NIMOY did a great job on this film it should've at least some kind of award for it's effects which were mind-blowing anyway this film is a must for all STAR TREK fans see it again and again like I have you won't soon forget it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!!!!!
Review: Couldn't be better. The conspiracy added to the Star Trek story formed an unbeatable team.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best of the Series
Review: The best of the classic trek. Although the The Voyage Home was certainly the best of the first five, the Undiscovered Country returned the series to its roots - a mixture of "timely relevance" with the trek universe - absolutely superb piece of work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT WAY TO END THE "STAR TREK" ERA,WONDERFUL.
Review: Simply said,this was a great movie.A very good way to end the movie series and close out the "era".The federation/Klingon peace process is related to the U.S./Russia one of today.There are great battle scenes and good script between the major characters.But what makes this even more wonderful is that Gene Roddenberry gave his full "THUMBS UP" to the completed film two days before he passed away.The film has great "END CAPS" with "FOR GENE RODDENBERRY" at the beginning,and the "SIGN OFF" of the major cast at the end.What is in between makes anyone want to see it over and over.There was also a smart move to put back three minutes for the home video which does help to make the story better and clear up one question about a starfleet officer named late in the film.A FANTASTIC PICTURE END

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Star Trek recovers from the Shatner shattering.
Review: Three cheers for Leonard Nimoy and Nicholas Meyer. After Star Trek was MUGged by the absurd ego of William Shatner with his disastrous Star Trek 5,Nimoy came up with the idea of Star Trek 6 with the fall of Communism in the Soviet Union and the Berlin wall coming down.
Nick Meyer chipped in with his ideas and brilliant direction to save Star Trek,as he did with his writing and direction in ST2 and his writing of the San Francisco scenes in ST4.
Nimoy,who had previously done so well with his directing in Star Trek 4,this time produced Star Trek 6:The Voyage Home.
Highlights of this film are - the explosion of the Klingon moon(based on Chernobyl),the assassination,the Klingon trial of Kirk and McCoy,the prison camp,the escape and the finale.
It is amazing what they did with a Star Trek 6 budget that was similar to the cheap looking Star Trek 5.
And they had the good sense to bring the brilliant ILM back to do the effects. ILM's brilliant effects make a huge difference.
Rick Berman followed Shatner's mistake of ditching ILM for the last two Trek films,will they ever learn?
ILM made a huge difference in six Star Trek films and the Peter Pan line at the end "second star to the right and on till morning" is a delight.
