Reviews for Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
Top CriticWhy is this such a good Star Trek movie? Well, Spock makes a mean captain, standing in for the imprisoned Kirk.

Meyer's direction and dialogue are among the most fluid and exciting of the whole series, and he manages a lovely 'final' feel, saying goodbye to the old crew and embracing the future at the same time.

A rousing sendoff for Kirk, Spock, and Bones, and a fitting transition from the original series' Cold-War milieu to the Next-Generation age of engagement.

Rich, action-filled and loaded with familiar literary and political references, not to mention a number of savvy in-jokes, Star Trek VI is an utter delight that should more than please fans of the series.

The bang/buck ratio is high and it's packed with pithy dialogue and little emotional kicks that make it a worthy, dignified sendoff for the crew we've followed for so many (dear God, so many) years.

Like its even-numbered predecessors, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country is fast-paced and entertaining.
