I hated this slow, cerebral film as a kid. This time, though, it clicked with me a bit more. That's not to say it's a fun or exciting film, it really does drag. But this time I'm watching it coming off the original TV show for the first time, and I just really like spending time with these characters. It's a shame it's all so beige. Certainly, it has one of the best scores of any film, and I really liked the 3 minute opening musical overture.

Always appreciated V'Ger's fashion sense for Ilia - high rise robe and low-rise playboy pumps...I doubt either were Starfleet issued :slight_smile:

I’ve finished watching the 2022 Director’s Cut in 4K, and I stand by my adult original opinion from a few years ago: this is an ambitious hard-sci-fi mess that ham-fists its human meaning thrust unevenly throughout its narrative. The Director’s Edition improves the pacing and the 4K is gorgeous to view. There’s plenty of ship-porn!

It's a first effort at adapting Star Trek to the feature film format, and it shows. Pacing is very slow for most of the film, only picking up near the climax. The slowness is not helped by long, drawn-out shots of the ship—leaving spacedock, exploring new environments, etc. At the time, I supp More

[7.0/10] In one of his excellent write-ups of *The Original Series*, Zack Handlen wondered what it must have been like for *Star Trek* fans to write and plead and cajole the network for more of their favorite show on the cusp of cancellation, and be rewarded for their enthusiasm with the thud of “ More

BORING.

I mean, it opens great. The first few minutes sort of give you the impression that this movie is going to be epic...

... and then the rest of it is best spent looking at your phone, cleaning your finger nails, watching linoleum curl, defrosting your freezer...

... finding anything e More
