Star Trek V: The Final
Frontier (1989)
Directed by William
Shatner who also provided the story for and stars in this film it
also features Leonard Nimoy and DeForest Kelly. After some diplomats
are held hostage the USS Enterprise and her crew are sent to
investigate.
This film is one of
the more maligned entries in the franchise but despite that the story
raises some interesting questions and ventures into pretty anti
religious territory for a Hollywood film. The problems with this film
all stem from the special effects just not being able to live up to
Shatner's vision for the film which is a real shame as the opening
sequence in particular showed a lot of promise. Ultimately this film
is not as bad as some would have you believe but is no where near as
good as it could have been due to poor execution.
3/5
