Product Description

From Amazon.com

Star Trek V left us nowhere to go but up, and with the return of Star Trek II director Nicholas Meyer, Star Trek VI restored the movie series to its classic blend of space opera, intelligent plotting, and engaging interaction of stalwart heroes and menacing villains. Borrowing its subtitle (and several lines of dialogue) from Shakespeare, the movie finds Admiral Kirk (William Shatner) and his fellow Enterprise crew members on a diplomatic mission to negotiate peace with the revered Klingon Chancellor Gorkon (David Warner). When the high-ranking Klingon and several officers are ruthlessly murdered, blame is placed on Kirk, whose subsequent investigation uncovers an assassination plot masterminded by the nefarious Klingon General Chang (Christopher Plummer) in an effort to disrupt a historic peace summit. As this political plot unfolds, Star Trek VI takes on a sharp-edged tone, with Kirk and Spock confronting their opposing views of diplomacy, and testing their bonds of loyalty when a Vulcan officer is revealed to be a traitor. With a dramatic depth befitting what was to be the final movie mission of the original Star Trek crew, this film took the veteran cast out in respectably high style. With the torch being passed to the crew of Star Trek: The Next Generation, only Kirk, Scotty, and Chekov would return, however briefly, in Star Trek: Generations. --Jeff Shannon

From the Back Cover

The Enterprise leads a battle for peace in the most spectacular Star Trek adventure ever! After years at war, the Federation and Klingon empire prepare for a peace summit. But the prospect of intergalactic glasnost with sworn enemies is an alarming one to Admiral Kirk (William Shatner). "They're animals!" he warns.

When a Klingon ship is attacked and the Enterprise is held accountable, the dogs of war are unleashed again, as both worlds brace for what may be their final, deadly encounter.

Directed by Nicholas Meyer (Star Trek III: The Wrath Of Khan), this topical action-adventure soars with warp-speed excitement that's "impossible to resist" (James Verniere, Boston Herald). Costarring Christopher Plummer.

This special home video version contains more than three minutes of never-before-seen footage.

4.0 out of 5 stars blew away my expectations, Aug 18 2007
By falcon "disdressed12" (canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
wow.going into this movie,my expectations were pretty low.i though it would be a decent movie,but not great.well,i don't no if it's great or not,but it's pretty darn close.this one has it all.sure,there's action,and quite a bit of it.and there also plenty of excitement to go along with it.and in liberal doses of humour coupled with the high intensity and suspense factor and you have one heck of a fun film.there are also the added elements of intrigue and mystery,which the previous had little of,if any.this is also the darkest installment up to that point.i think it is also the most ambitious of the six films.for me,this movie ranked right up there with the fourth installment The Voyage Home.there are some nail biting moments here.this movie is a 4/5 for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let Slip the Dogs of War !, Jan 26 2007
By Craobh Rua "Craobh Rua" (N. Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (Widescreen) (DVD)
"The Undiscovered Country" was the sixth of the Star Trek movies and hit the movie screens in 1991. Like "The Wrath of Khan", this film was directed by Nicholas Meyer, and tells the story of the last mission undertaken by Captain Kirk and his crew.

The film opens in 2293, with the USS Excelsior returning home from a three-year mission charting gaseous anomalies in beta quadrant. Under the command of Captain Sulu, it monitors a devastating explosion on the Klingon moon, Praxis - one that literally tears the moon apart. As well as losing a key energy production facility, the Klingons are left with a more pressing problem : within fifty years, the Klingon homeworld would be uninhabitable due to the resulting damage to its atmosphere.

Several months later, Kirk and most of his senior staff are mysteriously called to a meeting with Starfleet's top brass. Three months away from retirement, they're a little confused as to why they have been summoned - and why Spock is, apparently, missing. The mystery is presently cleared up : they are briefed on what happened on Praxis and informed that, as a result, peace talks have opened between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. Further details are then provided by the Federation's Special Envoy : Spock. Compounding Kirk's surprise at Spock's role in proceedings is his dismay that Spock's plans for the Enterprise and her crew. Spock has volunteered them, without their knowledge, to escort Gorkon (the Klingon Chancellor) to Earth for a peace conference. Obviously Kirk - having spent his career fighting Klingons and still smarting from his son's death at Klingon hands - does not approve. He is not alone in expressing his concerns - several Admirals, including Cartwright, believe it very dangerous to even consider allowing Klingons free access to Federation space. All objections, however, are brushed aside by the Commander-in-Chief and Spock's plan is given the green light. Unfortunately, mixing Kirk and Klingons can only lead to trouble - especially when both parties are threatened with peace. (Just so long as nobody lets them near the Romulan Ale....D'OH !!).

There are several well-known guest stars in the movie : Michael Dorn (Worf from TNG and DS9) appears as a Klingon Defence Attorney, while Iman appears as a shape-shifting convict. Kim Cattrall also appears playing Lt. Valeris, a new Enterprise Bridge Officer. She was sponsored through the Academy by Spock and was the first Vulcan to graduate top of her class. General Chang, one of Gorkon's aides, is a great character - probably the most entertaining in the movie. He seems to enjoy testing Kirk - someone he shares a few traits with. Both are tough old warriors who are suspicious of the peace initiative. Overall this in a hugely entertaining movie - there's plenty of action, humor and opportunities for characters to bend the rules. For me, this beats "The Wrath of Khan" as the best of the Trek movie featuring the crew of the original series.

5.0 out of 5 stars outstanding -- the best star trek movie ever, July 18 2004
This review is from: Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (Widescreen) (DVD)
Unlike Nemesis, which kind of left you scratching your head at how The Next Generation series of movies could go out in such an average (for TNG's high standards) bang, The Undiscovered Country closed out the original Star Trek series of movies with a BANG in 1991. This is easily the best ST movie ever, about how overmining of the Klingon moon causes a catastrophe on their planet making in uninhabitable and causing them to come to the Federation with talks of a truce. But a deep conspiracy unravels, in some ways predictable, in other ways not.......enough of my blabbering, not like you wanted to hear me tell you any more anyways, if you did I still won't spoil any more. Scenes of this movie were emulated in Next Generation movies (a certain space battle scene is emulated almost exactly in Generations, although nowhere near as well). Get it, watch it, and watch all the original Star Trek movies (except maybe the first one, unless you are INSANE for star trek). THe original movies are the best, and can be loved even if you aren't a Star Trek fan.
