Review of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) by Matt S — 10 Aug 2015
Star Trek V is one of those films that must be seen. It is a mystery to me at times. This film has ideas that aren't always explored to their fullest but you can see what they were trying to do with it.
William Shatner Co-wrote and directed this one which is doubly puzzling. I guess seeing as Leonard Nimoy directed the previous two Paramount thought Shatner could have a go at directing. The religious aspects of this movie aren't done as well as they could have been, seeing how Star Trek has a particular stance on religion as it is.
Under the firection of anyone else, I am sure this could have been on par with Star Trek II, instead it is just watchable at best. There are some good comedic bits which save this movie for me.
