Movie Reviews of Star Trek V - The Final Frontier (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
Movie Review: Let's See What's Out There
Summary: 4 Stars
The Good Things
*A lot of good special effects and action scenes (albiet the quality is noticably different).
*Filming style is good.
*Characters are good and deep. Good acting, once agian.
*Writing is not bad. Some good comedy, some good drama.
*Good music.
The Bad Things
*Pretty iffy storyline. I liked the idea and the fact that it is so grand. But most people seem to have a problem with it and other aspects (such as Spock having a half-brother who is so compassionate).
The Questionable Things
*It looks as though they tried to make it grittier, edgier, and more sleazy. It kind of works, but in a way, it may be too different.
*Despite the quality of the effects, some of them are totally weird at the end.
Bigger is not always better. This film is a great departure from the previous ones, bumping up the scale of the story, adding even more to the characters, and making everything a little scummier. I think it's pretty fun, but it really is the weakest of the "Star Trek" films.
The one-disc version had okay video and sound quality. The two-disc version has similarly okay quality and a number of featurettes and trailers.

Summary of Star Trek V - The Final Frontier (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
The crew of the Enterprise truly goes where no man has gone before, after a Vulcan takes over the ship and steers it to the center of the universe.Genre: Science Fiction
Rating: PG
Release Date: 10-APR-2007
Media Type: DVD
Movie critic Roger Ebert summed it up very succinctly: "Of all of the Star Trek movies, this is the worst." Subsequent films in the popular series have done nothing to disprove this opinion; we can be grateful that they've all been significantly better since this film was released in 1989. After Leonard Nimoy scored hits with Star Trek III and IV, William Shatner used his contractual clout (and bruised ego) to assume directorial duties on this mission, in which a rebellious Vulcan (Laurence Luckinbill) kidnaps Federation officials in his overzealous quest for the supreme source of creation. That's right, you heard it correctly: Star Trek V is about a crazy Vulcan's search for God. By the time Kirk, Spock, and their Federation cohorts are taken to the Great Barrier of the galaxy, this journey to "the final future" has gone from an embarrassing prologue to an absurd conclusion, with a lot of creaky plotting in between. Of course, die-hard Trekkies will still allow this movie into their video collections; but they'll only watch it when nobody else is looking. After this humbling experience, Shatner wisely relinquished the director's chair to Star Trek II's Nicholas Meyer. --Jeff Shannon
