I'm skipping V because it sucked so badly so next up is The Undiscovered Country.
Undiscovered Country (VI) was supposed to eliminate the bad taste V left behind, but I thought it sucked too.
Yep. Sucked like the vacuum of space.
I showed them all to the kids a while back. The first one is quite a bit better than I remember. Likely, because we were all (in 1979) expecting an action movie (Star Wars with Kirk and Spock and Klingons) and Roddenberry gave us Star Trek in big screen grandeur. As such, it's not half bad.
2 and 4 are generally acknowledged to be the only 'good' ones with the original cast.
On the other hand, I have a fondness for 3. Christopher Lloyd simply steals the movie as the Klingon captain.
