The worst Star Trek movie by far. It is sad because the story has potential and you see the sparks of great ideas. If you don't believe me think about the following: Could you summarize the story in a way that another person will be excitedThe worst Star Trek movie by far. It is sad because the story has potential and you see the sparks of great ideas. If you don't believe me think about the following: Could you summarize the story in a way that another person will be excited to watch this movie? For me it is a clear yes and the result for him/her would be a disappointment. That is my point. The execution is flawed or lets say the ideas are underused. When I first watched this movie on TV I fell asleep and later re-watched it a few times. For the good parts: Sybok is an interesting character and his arc / goal is the stuff you can use for a legendary movie experience. The planet Nimbus III and the ambassadors / leaders of the factions have potential for great backstories. General Korrd was one of the most brilliant military leaders and ended here. The scenes where the hidden mistakes / life decisions are revealed were great but could be definitively used better (or more?). Think about it what you learned about McCoy and how it shaped him. For the bad parts: The characters are not used as good as in the previous movies. The action / battles are underwhelming and the humor is gone except for 2 or 3 moments. The climax is a disappointment. Star Trek used characters in this category far better (Wont spoil and cant even give examples because of it). Overall this is the worst Star Trek movie but far away from the worst movies of all time. At least you could watch it once for comparison. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Disappointing!The music was good,the acting was amazing and the Comedy was awesome but the Visuals and CGI it was worst than all prequels and the story it has lot of potential but the way it was directed its a Dumb Movie!The main plot of God's meet thing was revealed very late and it played as if its a shock.the whole movie has really awesome moments specially the intro with all characters in there Leave enjoying it was amazing!The whole starting intro of Nimbus planet and the Unknown vulcan with amazing tactics getting Everyone to Mission of finding god with capturing members of republic and using them to take rescue ship it was good.the starting 30 mins of Movie was amazing,the Crew's sudden mission in between Leave the Un-repaired Enterprise and adventure it was awesome,the Klingon's plot was little Unnecessary but the tension of both fight and all it has potential but it was wasted,the Nimbus planet rescue mission by crew the Dancing of Uhura to Divert enemies it was Odd and the rescue fight resulting in Whole other plan and the Twist of Unknown Vulcan is Spock's brother it was awesome but the impact was clearly missing,most of the moments in movie just like this was impact-less as it was fastly done and Cut it was little Odd like the Emotions scene it has powerful meaning but it was showcased Fast-ly without any Proper pay-off,the Klingon vs enterprise battle and Clever escape to God's planet by Kirk was amazing.the last act is literally a Piece of Trash the meeting of god and the star-ship thing it was like "WTF" and ended with god's fighting with Crew and Spock's brother sacrifices to save everyone it was outta nowhere S#!T it was literally "What the Hell" moments although it ended with Kirk's quote "God's in our heart" and closing shots with Klingon's and Everyone at peace WOW what an End!Overall its One time watch for crew and there awesome humour apart from that the story has real potential but the whole direction it was Flawed and its a Dumb Movie although not as bad as Motion picture considering Worst in Franchise!
