Belated Movie Reviews

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979).

Sigh.

OK, as I recall from 1979, the visuals were quite good for the time.

DeForest Kelley got all the best lines. But why was he there at all?

The rest of it was awful. Unconvincing subplots with neither purpose nor beauty. Bad acting. Hopefully the customer designers and the director was never permitted to work again.

Occasionally so bad it was funny, but generally not. George Takei presence in one scene made him look like he was on drugs. And not the good kind.

In fact, the movie was about as good as this rushed review.
