An okay Sci-fi film. The performances and script were pretty solid, but the film is 30 minutes too long and moves at a glacial pace at times. I thought the final bits were really good and I enjoyed the NASA connection at the end, but with a slow-moving middle and the showcasing of some horrendous visual effects, Star Trek 1 is a mediocre entry in the genre.

A weak start to the franchise - luckily they get better. I would actually recommend watching Wrath of Khan and Search for Spock before this one, then going back or you may be turned off by the entire series.

This movie just is too slowly paced to keep anyone's interest. It just has so many sequences of the space screen. These scenes just go on and on without stop, there is nothing interesting about them, I do not know what Robert Wise was thinking. The other problem is the film has so little focus on the characters from the actual series.
