The
crew of the USS Enterprise have their R&R disturbed when
a renegade Vulcan hijacks their vessel and takes them on a
quest to find God...
The
original cast are off on their fifth cinematic outing and
what a treat they have in store for... well, no one actually.
The
Final Frontier was
panned by critics and fans alike on
its theatrical release and it is not hard to see why. Even
die-hard fans will have a problem swallowing the shallow plot
and anyone over four will laugh hysterically at the awful
American feel-good buddy on-screen shenanigans of the three
main characters.
From
Kirk's unbelievable rock climbing openings to its unclimatic
ending - where Kirk takes on God(?) and wins - it is obvious
that Mr Shatner himself was responsible for the script. We
know he can't act, we have heard he can't sing and now we
can witness that he can't write.
What
is even more inexcusable is that the standard DVD comes complete
with the following extras: Theatrical trailer and teaser trailer...
and that, lady's and gentlemen is your lot. For £20
you could be forgiven for wanting more. Even the special edition
DVD contains little extra. CIC Should be ashamed of themselves
but no doubt fans of the series will buy it for completion
reasons.
Save
your money and buy anything but this! The only reason this
is getting 3 out of 10 instead of 1 is because that famous
scene with Scotty still makes me laugh until my sides hurt.
