Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Nothing but a long day's journey into ennui.

fresh:
The expensive effects (under supervision of Douglas Trumbull) are the secret of this film, and the amazing wizardry throughout would appear to justify the whopping budget.

rotten:
This 1979 movie adaptation of the cult TV series is blandness raised to an epic scale.

rotten:
[It's] like attending your high-school class's 10th reunion at Caesar's Palace. Most of the faces are familiar, but the decor has little relationship to anything you've ever seen before.

fresh:
Star Trek - The Motion Picture: Director's Edition is no 2001 (its obvious inspiration -- a fact that is more evident here than ever before), but it represents thought-provoking, well constructed science fiction.
