Advantages: Every Star Trek Movie, in one Handy Box
Disadvantages: There aren't enough hours in a day!

If you love Star Trek, these are definitely for you! This is every movie ever made, okay thats only ten, but still thats impressive. The packaging is brilliant, it is a box within a box, with two Holders within that, which spread out and hold five movies. There are five original movies, and five of the next generation movies. In total they make 1101 minutes (I make that about 18 hours 30 mins) of pure star Trek excellence. The ratings of the movies ...
...you havent seen them. STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE Produced 1979, Directed by Robert Wise This is the first movie. Star Trek was going down hill, and was switched off air, so to get back in the swing, they launched this movie, which all of a sudden created an explosion of Star Trek fans, which was good for us, as it also encouraged them to make more movies! The only disappointing thing about it, is there is no special features or anything, you ... Read review

Advantages: Both parts of Unification are on this disc.
Disadvantages: The game which is pretty poor

This is by far the best of the Next Generation series. The common theme of this being Ethics. The brilliant episode Darmok is here as well as Silicon Avator which sees the destruction of the crysatlline entity. We also see the emergance of the Marquis and meet Ensign Ro. Alexander Worfs' son joins the cast and suicide is discussed in Ethcs when Worf is paralysed. Power Play in which Troi and Data and O'Brien are pocessed by spirits is also good. ...
...the legendary Lenard Nimoy in the 2 part episode Unification which is probably one of the best two part episodes. The writers included Jeri Taylor give a very good insight into this season. It also shows a quite beautiful tribute to Gene Roddenberry which left me in tears. Also a profile of other guest stars ie Kirsten Dunst in Dark Page. Famke Janssen who started her career in Perfect Mate and Ashley Judd who played Wesleys' girlfriend Robin Lefler. ... Read review

Advantages: It is much better than the fifth film
Disadvantages: It is the last in the series to feature the complete original Enterprise crew

The sixth film in the Star Trek saga featured the usual crew of the Enterprise, with guest appearances by a variety of stars and celebrities including Christopher Plummer, Kim Cattrall (long before her 'Sex and the City' days), Christian Slater (in a brief cameo) and Iman. Relatively recent in relation to the making of the film, the collapse of the Soviet Union had an impact on the storyline of the film. Because of the imminent annihilation of their ...
...evidenced in the previous film, STAR TREK V: THE FINAL FRONTIER. It appears that Paramount threw more money at this film, fittingly as it is a send-off to the original crew (although Kirk, Scotty and Chekov make an appearance in the next film, which introduces the NEXT GENERATION crew to the big screen). The acting is also superb, and this is surprising again considering the wooden-ness of the acting in the previous film. The only sour note is Kim ... Read review

Advantages: Relevant Plot, Great Performances, Excellent Special Effects
Disadvantages: Betrays some Trek Values

Star Trek The Undiscovered Country marks the final voyage of the entire TOS crew in the Star Trek franchise. The movie originally premiered in 1992, when the memory of the Cold War and the fall of the USSR was still quite vivid in the minds of many people. It is from this time that the Undiscovered Country was produced, and as you watch the movie you can draw many, many parallels between the US/USSR and the Federation/Klingons. And as fans know, ...
...The story is a Star Trek spin on the classic whodunnit genre, while still feeling fresh as it is set in space with a more epic nature as peace between two vast interstellar empires is at stake. The Klingons want to make peace with the Federation to end decades of hostility. Unfortunately, there are those out there that do not want this hostility to end and they try to frame Kirk and McCoy for the murder of a Klingon ambassador. I will not give out ... Read review

Advantages: Good Quality, Fun
Disadvantages: Alot of Disks

When i first noticed this title in the shops, my first reaction was "Thats too expensive" but then i realised that it was the price for ten films all included in the one set. The films in this set each have their own individual story and are only linked by the setting and characters. Each film in this set is interesting and have many good points and few bad points, on afew of the films the special effects are a bit lacking but this is due to the ... Read review
