Pros: great humor, enjoyable to watch

"Admiral! There be whales here!"

by alexdg1 alexdg1 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jul 08 '04
Pros: A more upbeat and funny screenplay. Fine directing by Nimoy. Good performances by all.
Cons: While I think Leonard Rosenman's score is okay, I miss James Horner's music!
Star Trek IV: Review With the success of Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, writer-producer Harve Bennett and director Leonard Nimoy were given the green light by Paramount to wrap up the storyline that began with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. ...

Captain Kirk save the whales?

by cntaur5, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, May 23 '01
Pros: Raises the environmental consciousness
Cons: You may need a little bit of Sci-Fi creativity to get into it.
What’s Captain Kirk doing flying across the galaxy to save humpback whales? In the 1986 movie Star Trek IV-The Voyage Home our favorite space cast brings the staunchly voiced Captain Kirk, the green eared pointed Vulcan Spock, our favorite space Doctor...

Down to Earth Humor

by bilbopooh bilbopooh is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 01 '00
Pros: hilarious
Cons: the whalesong at the beginning is kinda creepy
This is the contender for best Star Trek movie. It is as hilarious as "The Wrath of Khan" is touching. And it provides us sophisticated 20th-century folks with a look at our society of fifteen years ago. Have we changed that much? Hmm...

by curtisv632 , Aug 21 '01
Pros: Lots of laughs, good special effects, awesome message

While Epinions was down doing updates recently, I found myself bored and flipping through some channels looking for something to watch. I happened upon Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Although I have seen the movie many times, and really have no idea...

Star Trek 4 The Voyage Home: perhaps the best Star Trek movie

by quitesimply , Jun 19 '08
Pros: Good plot, funny, complete.
Cons: a little too light hearted perhaps.
OK so Star Trek 1 was poor, Star Trek 2 was excellent, Star Trek 3 was poor….do you see a pattern developing? Finally I get to say Captain Kirk again – it always disappointed me that Kirk had been promoted to Admiral, so I was perhaps one of ...

Star Trek + Whales = what will they think of next?

by ssjakira1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 28 '04
Pros: Yay for Star Trek!
Cons: Aww no big space battles or ships exploding. =P
Just like with 1 2 Monkeys, I was flipping channels and landed on Star Trek the Next Generation. After that, however, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home came on. Now I'd seen bits and pieces before and knew ...

Save the World! Save the Whales!

by lunchbuddy , Jul 09 '06
Pros: Excellent direction, an even better script, light treatment of subject matter
Cons: Nothing to be concerned about
All aboard, my fellow Trekkers, for the fun show. No death, scant violence, and plenty of laughs await you on this cuddliest of Star Trek films! Star Trek IV completes a sort-of trilogy in the movie series that began with Star Trek II: The ...

A Whale of A Tale: Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home!

by sweetcece Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Nov 15 '01
Pros: Very funny story that reminds me of The Trouble With Tribbles
Cons: Love story between Kirk and Gillian doesn't develop enough.
Ever since Star Trek was broadcast on television back in the 60s, I have been a fan of the original program throughout its original run, the reruns, and the full-length motion pictures. So, naturally as these motion pictures appeared on video cassette,...

by wlswarts Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 28 '07
Pros: Amusing, Good character development, Good story, Decent acting
Cons: Does not hold up over multiple viewings well, Some awkward special effects
Remember when environmentalists were not considered a fringe group and society at large had respect for art that challenged humanity to take responsibility for the environment and creatures on Earth other than just humans? I do, because it was not that ...

A fun "Trek" in time

by the_mow , Aug 03 '07
Pros: Cast, lightheartedness of the movie, special effects, makeup on background performers
Cons: Continuity error during initial time travel scene, some outdated effects and jokes
It has been a few months since members of the late "Starship Enterprise" had gone to the "Genesis Planet" to bring the reanimated body of "Spock" (Leonard Nimoy, who also directed the film) back to "Vulcan" so it could be reunited to its' "katra", the ...

Star Trek IV: The Funny Trek

by silentrascal , Mar 08 '03
Pros: Good storyline, visual effects, and lots of humor.
Cons: The Gillian character is annoying.
"The funny Trek"....that's what most people might categorize "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home" as if asked to describe it amongst the entire line of Star Trek films. For fans of Star Trek, "ST4" definitely stands out as being so different and unusual...

To boldly go...back in time

by SimonCook , Sep 06 '01
Pros: More humour than the original three movies.
Cons: A weaker plot than he original three movies wirh less action.
Science Fiction movies have always been big business; with Star Wars setting the trend and then 2001 a Space Odyssey, viewers were treated to a fictional view of Space. After the successful series, viewers were then treated to three Star Trek Movies....

A Whale of a Picture

by rfish Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Dec 29 '99
Pros: Great Classic Trek
Cons: NONE
Probably the best Star Trek Picture of the bunch. It has everything Action, Humor, inter-character twists, but most importantly it has some of the old tongue-in-cheek humor that was loved by everyone in the Star Trek of the 60's. There was the barbs...
