This is the worst movie for the original star trek series of all time. I didn't like the fact that Spock has a half-brother. I thought he was the only child. Captain Kirk and Dr. McCoy were terrible singers. Uhura doing... Full review

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier is a very entertatining movie and gets too much negative attention in my opinion. The story is very good, and very close in theme to some of the stories on the Original TV show. They... Full review

"Star Trek V" is a fun,lighthearted movie that is enjoyable and even a little thought-provoking.It's like having an original series episode within a movie,and that's cool! It's theme of family and the bond that comes with it is the best thing... Full review

This film is definitely Star Trek's most underrated film, although it didn't do nearly as bad as "Nemesis". But William Shatner's directional debut offers to tell a Trek story that many writers and directors have avoided in Roddenberry's universe; the... Full review

Ok, so many trekkers say this film is the worst of the bunch and maybe they are right. Heck, the story was far fetched, flawed, and kind of stupid. But through all of that there was something the original cast always... Full review

Despite these and other problems, I still like Frontier and find it to be an enjoyable and provocative film.....the small minority of folks who actually liked Star Trek V....I think its foes too quickly dismiss its positives.....it falls short of becoming a really strong documentary.....Badly maligned it may be, I still like Star Trek V.... ...

the franchise could survive a film this bad.....After the most successful Trek film, the widely-appealing "The Voyage Home," Trek producers decided to not only get existential....Easily the worst of the Trek films, original series, or Next Generation cast, it's honestly surprising....Fifth films in a franchise rarely work but few are as disastrous as "The Final Frontier"..... ...

Though newly refurbished, the Enterprise is as eccentric as ever -- the computer stutters, the shields won't lower, the photon torpedoes get stuck -- but it's nothing the sputtering engineer, Scotty (James Doohan), can't fix.
Blessedly, she is distracted by the charismatic Sybok, as are the inseparable Sulu (George Takei) and Chekhov (Walter Koenig) .
