1.0 out of 5 stars definitely the dumbest of the entire series Nov 18 2003
Format:VHS Tape
This is the kitchiest piece of junk in the entire series. Not only is the plot ridiculously unbelievable - they have to go back in time to get whales because of some strange ship they can't stop from destroying the Earth while searching for its extinct "cousins" - but it is almost completely lacking in any of the ST spirit. Though I am a big star trek fan, this is both silly and stupid, just a formula piece where Kirk yet again sets the Federation (well, at least not the entire universe) right with his well-placed and fails yet again at romance. But then, I love hard sci fi and deplore this totally predictable, feel-good pap. Not recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars Attack of the Whales?!! You're kidding me!! April 11 2003
Format:DVD
This Trek film could have been titled, "Star Trek IV: Attack of the Alien Whales".

Why are there so many films and episodes where an unstoppable force heads right for Earth and nothing seems to be able to stop it? Why? Because the writers have so very little creativity left in them after writing so many stories over the years.

This film was written specifically to bring the plight of the whales to mainstream audiences through a light-hearted Star Trek film. Yes, there are a few laughs, but this is just a sign that Star Trek has become nothing more than a joke. This concept may appeal to Trekkies (which is why ST: 5 was only appealing to Trekkies and universally hated by any other human trapped inside the theater) but it serves to damage the franchise further. The end result was that the last ST film basically bombed at the theater.

So, yes, you can trace the loss of Star Trek's appeal to films like this one.

As for the special effects, there are very few at all. There was one weird sequence when the crew was traveling back in time, which had to be the dumbest segment in sci-fi history.

If you really feel you need to see this film, watch it for the laughs, not for the sci-fi value, because there is little to none of that.

2.0 out of 5 stars For Trekkies Only April 18 2001
Format:VHS Tape
I'll admit I'm not a Star Trek fan so I don't share the same level of enthusiasm for "Star Trek IV--The Voyage Home" as do some of the other people who've seen this film. "The Voyage Home" has been hyped as a funny film but after watching it, I'm still not sure what makes this film so funny.

OK, there are some amusing moments like when Spock tries to use late 20th century slang in his conversations or when Kirk and Spock sit next to a punk rocker with a loud boom box on the city bus. Other than that, there's really not much to laugh about in this film.

Still, from an objective critical point of view, this film does have its merits. "The Voyage Home" does have a half-way decent plot and there's also an element of drama when Chekov gets knocked out of action. Moreover, Scotty, Bones and the rest of the crew have more depth and dimension than they did in the original TV series--which makes for a more interesting film.

While "The Voyage Home" is basically an OK movie, it still doesn't rise to its full potential. Still, if you're a Star Trek fan, you'll probably enjoy it and will want to add it to your video collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not much price difference.
While pleased to have the DVD from this series, when the cost of shipping was added, I would have saved an extra 3-5 dollars if bought from Futur Shop.

5.0 out of 5 stars classic star trek, with a twist
Another classic trek movie, this one from 1986, is awesome, and the most shocking thing about it is that it doesn't even take place in space, save for about 15 minutes! Read more

O.K., first my one complaint-The plot where a mysterious, massive, invincible alien force that threatens the Earth was already done before. (Remember the first Star Trek film? Read more
