I've been watching a lot of the movies I haven't seen in a while and rexamining them. Star Trek V is certianly a better film then I remembered it being. It's a lot more cerebal in terms of its story (like Star Trek: The Motion Picture) and even though the special effects are way below par for a Star Trek film (which really hurts during the ending sequence) the film is still a admirable effort. The actors, story, and witty exchanges between Kirk, Spock, and McCoy are what really sell this film. But the special effects and at times tedious pacing are what causes this film to be regarded so lowly by fans and critics which is a shame because there is a really good film here.
7.5/10
