SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

qmtv Garbage. Makes the new Star Trek movies look good. Crap story, acting, cinematography, lighting, sets, costumes, fx. No charisma. Just plain garbage. What a shame. I'm a fan of the original TV series. I hate all other TV series, including the Next Generation, and all the movies. Even the worst original TV series, like I, Mudd is better than the crap that was produced after the original TV series ended, including this movie, Star Trek 3. Here's the main problem. The story just plain sucks. The dialogue sucks. The acting is garbage. Best acting was Bones, and even that was a joke compared to the 60's TV. When Kirk found out his son was killed, it's pure embarrassing. What the hell is the deal with FAT SCOTCHY with that stupid MUSTACH? Maybe someone tells him, hey you want to be in the movie, lose some weight and that stupid mustache. Jackoff, Solo, and U Whore You, were there, but nothing special. Spock directed this mess. Maybe he should stick to acting. He was great in the TV series. Here, he's not even there until the end, and the dialogue was just retirement home sleep inducing. What about the villain, Christopher Lorde. He's a good actor. Here, he's a freaking mess, joke cliché nonsense. He tries to pull Kirk down, and gets Kirk's boot in the face and falls into a volcano. Not suck a great villain. Spock's father, another mess. He was great in the TV series. Here, not so good. On Vulcan, U Whore You just shows up. Did Scotchy beam her up? I would rather if this movie was just the original cast sitting in a retirement home watching tv and telling stupid jokes. That would have made a better movie. Captain Jerk, Spot, Boner, Jackoff, Solo, U Whore You, Scotchy. What a mess. The costumes? 80's neon disco! What we have here is pollution. It pollutes the airwaves. If you want to unpolluted, consider not watching any of the movies or any other tv series, and just stick to the original 60's TV. There are a few bad episodes in the original as well. But if you stick with it you'll find most have some great stories, acting and even fx. May the original Live Long and Prosper, and the rest go to hell.

kieranwilliamsonmt I'm a more recent Star Trek fan and have recently moved onto the movies. I have to say, this one was a bigger disappointment to Star Trek I for me. After the how brilliant 'The Wrath of Khan' was, I was hoping Star Trek III would be a worthy follow up, but even the title seemed a little unimaginative now I look at it. The story takes forever building up, has some great moments during that, for example, the Klingons are brilliant but it just lacks some imagination much like how 'Star Trek: The Motion Picture' often felt. It's like the franchise took one huge step forward, Star Trek II was an exciting film but still about morality at the end of the day, but this film offers none of it.

Tweekums Following on from the events of 'The Wrath of Khan' the crew of the Enterprise have returned to Space Dock and it looks as if they will be going their separate ways; Scotty has been transferred to a new ship, the Enterprise is due to be decommissioned and Dr McCoy is behaving strangely. It turns out that before Spock died he mind-melded with McCoy and now his consciousness is in McCoy's mind. Spock's father tells Kirk that he must get both McCoy and Spock's body back to Vulcan.There is a major problem though; Spock's body is on Genesis and the only ship allowed near there is the research vessel monitoring the planet. Kirk, along with McCoy, Scotty, Sulu and Chekov steal the Enterprise and head to Genesis. While this is going on a Klingon commander has learnt of Genesis and heads there hoping to get the data on the project which he believes could be used as the ultimate weapon. By the time the Enterprise arrives at Genesis the Klingon's have destroyed the research ship and captured three people on the surface; Saavik, Kirk's son David and a young Spock! Kirk and his crew will have to think fast if they are to rescue Spock; not only are the Klingons threatening to destroy the Enterprise but Spock is aging at a rapid pace just as the Genesis planet is undergoing rapid evolution and becoming unstable.After the really impressive 'Wrath of Khan' this might seem a bit disappointing but it still has some fine moments. The Klingons can usually be relied on to be good villains and the fact their leader, Kruge, is played by Christopher Lloyd is just a bonus. The death of Spock was one of Star Trek's most moving moments but it isn't a huge surprise that this iconic character would ultimately return. The story is solid enough and includes a real surprise when Kirk must make a sacrifice if he is to save his crew. The special effects are a bit mixed at times they look really great but at others it is almost as if the makers wanting to hint at the look of the old TV series! The ending leaves a few questions unanswered which sets things up somewhat for the opening of the next film, 'The Voyage Home'. Overall I'd say that this film was better than I remembered and fans of classic 'Star Trek' should enjoy it.

Filipe Neto This film is the third of the franchise and addresses the theme of death and resurrection of Spock, something that I honestly could not understand immediately but, being an alien, did not make any knot in my head when I've got it. The script is not bad but it gets even better from the moment the Klingons, a welcome element of action, are added to the story. However, being a film that continues the story of "The Wrath of Khan," it is natural that both are similar at several points. On a technical level, they're almost identical, the sets and costumes are the same and the special effects are still what we could expect at this period. And as for the actors, this film is almost entirely of Leonard Nimoy and DeForest Kelley, actors that the script privileged and that they had the capacity to shine. In the end, we get a film that honors its predecessor without, however, being able to match it.
