i like underdog . so and 12 year after have first see star trek v and and think it be bizarrely bad and i give it a second watch and hoping i would find some redeeming quality which i miss the first time around . i do not . the writing be half baked and and although at first the quality of the acting be stable enough to keep the movie on it foot ( albeit shakily ) and the further we get into the plot the silly it get . the last quarter of the film be just plain ridiculous . what be even bad and from the original cast pov and be that this be the first st movie to be release after the franchise return to television with next generation and and the average episode of next generation would put this to shame include the special effect . what an embarrassment . the final frontier isn not thoroughly wretched i give it 4 out of 10 but it so far below the standard of it predecessor ( yes and include the first one ) that the only reason i can think of to watch it be because you will appreciate the other movie more . unless it an episode with troi mother in it .
