Is it good or not?
it's amazing
Underated for its time. They decided to make the rest into action films as the first is too intellectual for normies.
II > I > VI > IV > III > V
The score is incredible
I would agree with this ordering.
Yes. V however is utter trash, except for the god scene of course
It contains the best scene in all of Star Trek but unfortunately the rest is kinda lame.
Pretty good yeah, it tries a little too hard to be 2001: A Space Odyssey instead of Star Trek but its good.
2>6>4>3>1>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It's my favorite trek film but it's slow and pretty dated in some parts if that's a problem for you.
>It contains the best scene in all of Star Trek
It's the closest to the original series
Awful, awful production design. And the plot is just a boring and slow version of The Changeling.
Would rather rewatch Final Frontier.
Kino poster
It's a pleb filter
They tried to make an intellectual sci-fi film about of a campy shlock monster of the week show.
Is it fine as a film in a vacuum? Sure.
Is it Star Trek? no.
2 > 6 > 4 > 3 > 1 > 5
The scene where they fail to transport two persons who are screaming in agony is still making me uncomfortable after all these years.
And what scene is that?
It's hard to say if two or one is better. Theyre both really good in their own rights.
All right, you pre-warp savages here is the correct ranking: 6>2>4>3>5>1
Actual pleb filter.
it's comfy tho
I always see it shit on and avoided it thinking it would be on level with any of the non-First Contact Next Gen films, but it was pretty decent and had some great moments. Totally nonsensical brother plotline and a letdown from the Genesis Trilogy, but it wasn't as horrible as a lot of fans made it out to be.
I saw all 6 movies on the first week of quarantine, and would have to say that my favorite is the first one, but they were all entertaining in their own right. I didn't watch the series though.
Indeed V is better than people give it credit for
The back and forth with Spock and his brother is pretty great
>You are crazy Sybok...Im not crazy if Im right, Spock.
Shits great
Also, I need my pain etc There were good things about the movie
That's funny. I think it got the closest to the show than any other movie.
the only star trek film. Next nine are movies, then next two are flicks and the next one is mcu tier crap
It's the only ST movie that actually follows what the whole concept of ST is.
Therefore it's boring to watch if you expect anything other than a bunch of scientists analyzing a unknown force for 140 minutes. But the Enterprise is a research ship, so that's what they do.
Also it still looks amazing despite being over 40 years old.
Pros:
>probably the best soundtrack of the entire film series
>for the time and given the equipment they had to work with, very well done vfx
>The middle bit where you start to get an idea that V'ger is actually a machine is a pretty cool set up
>The transporter vaporisization is genuinely disturbing
>Hot bald chick
cons
>The story is basically a 45 minute TOS episode stretched out into a 3.5 hour movie and it shows
>its slow, and not a lot of action
>Except for Kirk, Spock and Bones, the rest of the cast is flat and boring, minus the hot bald chick
>The effects don't really hold up unless your watching the director's cut
>You have to look for it, but the dubbing is occasionally immersion breaking (the cast was forced to dub over their lines as the projectors on the bridge were so fucking loud you couldn't hear the actors)
Bones is pretty flat throughout TMP, and much of the banter and charm between the trio from TOS is gone, which was deliberate. For a quite substantial portion of the film, Kirk noticeably struggles to act and lead like his younger self.
IV is the closest the TOS movies ever got to the series in tone. Kirk in the Italian restaurant scene is classic TOS charm.
Everytime i see this poster i think moonwalker, which is a better film
Truly the best Star Trek film of all, even better than Wrath of Khan.
Its slow, plodding, kind of preachy, with tons of references to the old Trek, and the plot is classic optimistic ST.
Everybody knows V'Ger, its pop culture now.
It truly was meant only for ST fans.
I love it
>The scene where they fail to transport two persons who are screaming in agony is still making me uncomfortable after all these years.
Thats the only part of the movie I didn't agree with. Its been long held in ST canon that transporters have safety protocols for that. The only transporter accidents in the old series occurred when external events caused it, such as massive ion storms, and then it just threw them to the Terran Empire.
