...I thought I would give Star Trek another review, so here goes. Please make yourself, comfortable, mobiles off and relax…. Star Trek III - The Search for Spock is one of those films that you see the characters in a different light. The film itself was released back in 1984. Leonard Nimoy who had been killed off at the end of the previous movie was hired to direct this one. This is what the 2 disc set contains…. Disc 1: Audio commentary by director ...

...the trilogy which started with STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN - the next film in the series begins a new adventure. An interesting titbit is that Eddie Murphy was originally slated to appear in this film. I personally am very glad that he didn't as I cannot see how his particular brand of comedy would have fitted into the Star Trek world. I really enjoy STAR TREK 4. It was the first movie in the series I ever saw and although I had not seen the ... Read review

Advantages: Funny and different
Disadvantages: Ageing cast, slightly weak story

...taking a tongue-in-cheek approach to Star Trek film making, almost moving into 'Carry on Star Trek' mode at some points. Its good family fun and enjoyable to see Shatner and Nimoy ad-lib off each each other whilst trying to collect George and Gracie, a pair of humpback whales. **Story** Following on from Star Trek III, Kirk and crew are returning to Star Fleet in a Klingon Bird of Prey after defying orders and stealing a Starship (The Search for ...

...film, repeating spocks death and funeral was great and the musical score was done fabulously by James Horner who did the nusic for the second film. The model shots for the enterprise , the bird of prey and space dock are just amazing. The story is a little confusing if you haven't seen the second film or if your not a trek fan but its an enjoyable film. But points are deducted because most of the scenes after space dock were on the bridge of the ... 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
