Star Trek [DVD]

Product Information

In the vicinity of the liberated planet of Bajor, the Federation space station Deep Space Nine guards the opening of a stable wormhole to the far side of the galaxy. What you have on the discs are the original programs, cleaned up and color balanced to the point where some of the scenes look as if they were filmed only yesterday! You also have the new "enhanced" versions that have had the original grungy old model shots replaced by beautiful new CGI footage, including all the shots of the Bridge View Screen. From the main menu you have the option to watch the episodes with, or without the new CGI, plus you can even switch between them while you're watching the show, although I find that very distracting. As for Beyond, if you hated the first two that much, I don’t know if you’re going to like Beyond that much more. I mean it IS better IMO, but it’s still just like the other two in many ways, ie, uber-villain want to destroy the Federation for (very) confusing reasons, plot of the film really just an excuse for loud big action set pieces and Kirk doing a lot of running and jumping per usual. But there are actually a lot of strong character moments in the film and yes definitely feels the most TOS out of the three and why so many seem to like it, even if they still didn’t like the first two much.

The problem is, these cuts wind up damaging the narrative. Newer fans will likely not know the difference, but long-time fans will definitely notice scenes and important bits of dialogue painfully missing---and be incensed. This series was so good that it can withstand these cuts, but they still should not have been made at all. They stupidly destroy a number of memorable classic scenes, some of them extremely important. In some cases, the cuts are so bad, the narrative almost makes no sense. For instance, in original and correct versions of The Ultimate Computer, Richard Daystrom's psychology, M5's "issues", and Kirk's reaction to automation unravel gradually, and tension ratchets up step by step, while in the revised versions, every plot development is abrupt. In "For the World is Hollow...", so many scenes are missing that that the high priestess falls for McCoy suddenly and for no apparent reason. In "Assignment Earth", the comedic antics of Teri Garr's Roberta Lincoln are cut, as are some priceless jokes in "Piece of the Action". There are many examples like this. These cuts are a big problem with the remastered versions for those who remember, and reason enough by itself to be cautious about owning them. (This is why I give the remastered set 3.5 stars instead of 4.)

As others have said, the ability to watch these iconic episodes with their original effects was the main factor for me in purchasing this set. The picture and sound are crisp, the colours are vibrant, and I love the way the practical effects contribute to the nostalgic experience of watching the show. With the assistance of the Enterprise crew, Admiral Kirk must stop an old nemesis, Khan Noonien Singh, from using the life-generating Genesis Device as the ultimate weapon.A prequel to Star Trek: The Original Series, the show follows the crew of the USS Enterprise under Captain Christopher Pike.

I have to say while I didn’t love it, it is the best out of the Kelvin movies for me and the ONLY movie I have ever watched twice in IMAX. Definitely enjoyed it at the movies although not so much at home for some reason! Sadly though, both of these movies basically ended each of their movie franchises, but I digress.
