Review of Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) by Liamexe — 08 Oct 2022
The criticisms of this movie that have been made are mostly similar and reasonable. The old pun "Star Trek: The Slow Motion Picture" neatly sums them all. And for significant stretches of time, this movie is indeed "slow.
" Many people have probably seen the parody vids of Kirk gazing lovingly at his old ship while the camera wanders about the Enterprise for about five minutes, or later when the crew arrives at V-ger and we are given an endlessly long look at an uninteresting blue screen special effect.
I would suggest to just watch the TV shows instead works way better than a movie but not all movies are terrible.
