This movie is so extraordinary. The pacing is perhaps the best the franchise has ever produced. Who knew I wanted a Cold War spy thriller set in the Star Trek Universe?

[christophergraham]

This is my favorite Star Trek Ever. I love the look, the production design, the political thriller overtones, everything. This is what every Trek film should aspire to be.

[georgewodicka]

Episodic, and fully cinematic at the same time. This film had EVERYTHING.

[martyb]

I've been afraid to say how much I adore this movie! I now feel emboldened! Thank you Seán!

[jackhartley]

My Favorite Trek Movie as well! My favorite part is when Excelsior is in route to Kitamer. Sulu and navigator conversation on the bridge, "In range? Not yet sir. Come on, come on. She'll fly apart. Fly her apart then!" True testament that you do whatever it takes to help friends and family.

I’m SO glad to hear you say it’s your favorite Trek film, mine too! Even though I prefer TNG era, I can’t help but absolutely love this film and it’s Shakespearean poetry to it all. Kirk saying, “Let them die!” (Despite Shatner supposedly not agreeing with Kirk saying that) the analogy to the Berlin Wall. And Plummer 😚👌🏼 It was all just poetry.

Shatner, Plummer, and another notable Klingon, John Colicos, all performed Shakespeare in Stratford Ontario's Shakespeare festival for many years.

My favorite Star Trek film as well. The pacing and the action at the end between the Enterprise, Excelsior, and the cloaked Klingon ship is such an incredible scene.

[AndrewDRed]

This is probably the best Star Trek film ever made, and my joint second favourite.

[ColinPMcEvoy]

Sean, this is my favorite Star Trek movie as well. This is Star Trek at it’s best: taking current events and translating them in a way where the general audience can look at the event objectively.

[lioneldelorme]

This was the first Star Trek movie I saw in theatres when I was 13 years old. Still remember what an experience that was.

[georgefrankly]

Good taste there, Sean. Absolutely the best film. Amazing soundtrack, great script, and absolutely amazing casting. It simply wouldn't have worked without Warner and Plummer.

[EarthEphemeralGems]

This is my favorite as well. I've watched it so times and it never gets old.

[bugmancx]

My favourite as well! Perhaps I'll go and watch it.

[JKirkInTexas]

My favorite Star Trek film as well, nice to hear someone else say it is theirs also.

"I am as constant as the North Star!"
If Quonos doesn't have axial precession, this PROVES Shakespeare was Klingon!
Even ancient peoples knew the Earth's North Star changes/cycles because the Earth wobbles.

[ryankirkpatrick]

This is, and always shall be, my favorite Trek film. A StarTrek whodunit?!? Are you kidding me?!!!

[danielgertler]

The best Star Trek indeed. At the very least the most under rated because everyone always holds up khan and first contact but forget this one.

[JessieGender]

This is my favorite Star Trek film too. Not Undiscovered Country, just Sean Ferrick.

Star Trek 6 and 2 go back and forth on my favorite one
