So bad the Trekkies disown it
28 January 2007
ST:V actually manages to be so bad that some of the Star Establishment refuse to include it as canon. Shatner's direction is pretty hit and miss and while he does some good work with the Kirk/Spock/McCoy relationship little else really shines. The plot is pretty shoddy (they are taken by Spocks psychotic brother Sybok to find God) as are the effects. They look a whole generation away from what was being done on the Next Generation at the same time, screaming 'done on the cheap'. If your a dedicated trekkie then you might just be able to stand it but everyone else steer clear.

Finally, note to William Shatner. Uhuru doing a dance with nothing but feathers would have probably looked very sexy. In 1969. She wasn't quite so attractive by 1989.
