I think Lloyds performance is more important than you realize. Outside of Worf he is very much the template for modern klingons

"Stealing the Enterprise" was definitely a fun romp in the soundtrack

Your reviews are great. I disagree, however, that James Horner's score did not shine in this movie. Horner did an outstanding job. The "stealing the enterprise" scene in this movie is one of the best scenes in the entire Star Trek franchise, and it's certainly propelled by Horner's amazing music!

Christopher Lloyd basically invented the next-generation Klingon in this movie. The Klingons of the '60s were just normal dudes with tan make-up on who talked big, but weren't really physically imposing. You got the sense that they were all mouth and ego. But in the movies they changed, and I'm not just talking about the make-up. They just started seeming... bigger. More savage. Somebody you really wouldn't want to piss off. And that continued from then on. And apart from the few seconds at the beginning of part 1 (which featured a ship of nameless Klingons getting vaporized) part 3 was where that all started. Back to the Future is my all-time favorite movie, but I have no problem forgetting all about Doc Brown when I watch this one. I thought he did a hell of a job playing this blindly ambitious, savage, sociopathic alien.

4:43 RIP James Horner

Kruge has some of my favourite lines in the entire series, and Lloyd delivers them brilliantly.

I remember watching this in the theater when i was 14 and one of the worst scenes in cinematic history happened. They blew up the Enterpise!! I remember cryng,lol

Star Trek III is still a fantastic movie to this day, I never tire of this and to watch it alongside II and IV as one whole story makes for the best experience of all the Trek movies . The original cast are still my fave crew as opposed to the sterile TNG crew who I've never taken to. Sure there are cheap and tacky bits but that just adds to the fun of it. Love it.

While this is not my most favorite Star Trek film, the death of Kirk's son was part of the build up for Star Trek 6. Kirk saying "Let them die," is perfect attention to the material and exactly what one would expect him to say.

As a child, I was at first shocked and heartbroken at the loss of the enterprise. But then I realized that it was a good sendoff for the beloved ship. What more fitting of an end then to be destroyed in the process of defeating the enemy and allowing her crew to cheat death one more time.

I have never understood why people say this is a 'bad' Star Trek movie.  It's not Shakespeare, but it's a good solid entry.

watching in 2026.... R.I.P Blip :eyes-purple-crying:

This is my favorite Star Trek film. And if you don't know why it's the best, then you are not a true Star Trek fan.

I beg to differ, this is a great movie did very well at the box office, James Horner's score has to be different from the last film. This film is about belief and resurrection. This movie was well thought out as a prelude to #4.

I enjoyed this film much better than Star Trek 4 that got more critic   praise . Watching the end of the Enterprise was heart retching , She was like a character , but was played out in battle.  

I really disagree with you that James Horner theme does not help the emotional scenes. I think this is one of the score's greatest strengths. Who could forget 'Stealing the Enterprise', and I cannot think of more beautiful music here for the destruction of the original Enterprise. That's just my opinion.

No no no....this soundtrack is amazing. It sets such a somber, sweeping and emotional mood. It is the natural progression of ST2 and I adore it...

Leonard Nimoy: "We decided the wings (of the Bird of Prey) should change to an attack position....I don't know if the fans noticed." - Oh yes Len we noticed!

If this is "not a perfect movie"
then I say:
"Please give me more of this (not perfect movies) today"
It's ok for me if they are not perfect as long as they start to make movies like this again....
