The Wrath of Khan is still one of the greatest science fiction films of all time and this score only elevates it to stratospheric levels

Went to the 40th anniversary of Wrath of Khan. Sold out and ovation at the end. Aged like a fine wine...

RIP James Horner. This score is an important part of the soundtrack of my life. It stirs my soul...

I just discovered that I have been friends (for years) with James Horner's cousin Rick and never knew they were related until tonight.

Best of the movies. Perfect Star Trek. A very fine science fiction movie, also. This music was amazing... wonderful to watch in the theater in 1982! I just about jumped out my seat when the Enterprise came up behind Khan's ship... a wonderful space battle. It returns us to the original intent of space travel science fiction, just as man once explored his own planet in Caravels, now, man must explore the oceans of stars in great star ships.

Star Trek II is still the best Star Trek movie ever made and will always be. Heck, it's one of the best movies ever.

If this music doesn't stir your soul and tug at your emotions... you're basically dead.

The way it blends the original and then roils right into the stirring horns, Jesus. Amazing.

One of my earliest movie memories as a very little 80s kid was Wrath of Khan, and it wasn't until many years later that I realized why. I was too young to even understand the movie at that age, but not too young to appreciate Horner literally telling a story without words. ❤

Best movie in the whole series! Star Trek II will always be a favorite of mine.

Nicholas Meyer was a great writer and director, he gave Star Trek an emotional depth that the Original series lacked at times, Starfleet feels more militaristic and rigid in this film than the others but it fits considering the subject matter.

The score by a young composer named James Horner at the time made an indelible mark on Trek forever after.

James Horner or Jerry Goldsmith? Don't care, loved both their majestic film scores for Star Trek.
RIP Kirstie Alley.

[Roughrider]

No Star Trek film in generations yet to come will ever top this movie and it’s score!.

I have been, and always shall be, your friend…..

[new_kingdom]

[johnwong]

The strings and horns that start this soundtrack are unreal. I clearly remember being in the theater and hearing this masterpiece while watching the star fields of the opening credits. RIP James Horner.
