I'm disappointed in not being able to find full screen versions of this without having to buy a set. This DVD being a collector's edition special features type 2-disc set doesn't thrill me. But I do like the movie, and wouldn't grouse like a spoiled little brat so much but I don't buy something like this hoping to turn it back into money later on as if I am investing for resale value. I intend to keep this DVD just like I kept my VHS cassettes until technology obsoleted them. If you're still reading ... Read More

There is an unwritten law concerning the Star Trek movies. All the even numbered movies (2, 4, 6...) are good, and all the odd numbered movies (1, 3, 5...) are horrible. I bought into this, to a point. I completely agree with regard to Motion Picture and Final Frontier. However, I think that of the original six TOS movies, this one is exempt from the rule. I don't think it's quite as good as 4 or 6, or anywhere near as good as 2, but I thought it was pretty close. I think this movie is kind of ... Read More

Right away, I will say that out of 5 stars, I expected a 4 star movie, and I got a 4 star movie.
Unfortunately, it suffers from being between two epics: An epic of comedy (The Voyage Home) and an epic of tragedy (Wrath of Khan)
I pointed out in my (NEW) Wrath of Khan review that Wrath of Khan was about Kirk, and the "maturation" he suffers by Spock's death. Spock's death shows to Kirk for the first time that he is not invincible, and he has cheated death for so ... Read More

We already owned Star Trek II and IV and simply wanted to complete our collection of this particular trilogy by adding Star Trek III.
The movie itself wasn't necessarily the wear-with-all but was none-the-less entertaining.
The 2-disc DVD set, though purchased used, was in excellent condition and even had all the original print-material/offers, etc., on the inside.

Quickly following the events of "Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan," "Star Trek III: The Search For Spock" takes the filmgoer on a highly unusual "rescue" mission. This go-round finds Kirk, McCoy, and the rest of the crew (minus Spock, who sacrificed himself to save the others) returning to the friendly confines of the Federation for rest and, unbeknownst to them, the decommissioning of their beloved Enterprise.
Meanwhile, the Federation starship Grissom is studying the newly alive Genesis ... Read More

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
You didn't think Mr. Spock was really dead, did you? When Spock's casket landed on the surface of the Genesis planet at the end of Star Trek II, we had already been told that Genesis had the power to bring "life from lifelessness." So it's no surprise that this energetic but somewhat hokey sequel gives Spock a new lease on life, beginning with his rebirth and rapid growth as the Genesis planet literally shakes itself apart in a series of tumultuous geological spasms. As Kirk is getting to know his estranged son (Merritt Butrick), he must also do battle with the fiendish Klingon Kruge (Christopher Lloyd), who is determined to seize the power of Genesis from the Federation. Meanwhile, the regenerated Spock returns to his home planet, and Star Trek III gains considerable interest by exploring the ceremonial (and, of course, highly logical) traditions of Vulcan society. The movie's a minor disappointment compared to Star Trek II, but it's a--well, logical--sequel that successfully restores Spock (and first-time film director Leonard Nimoy) to the phenomenal Trek franchise...as if he were ever really gone. With Kirk's willful destruction of the U.S.S. Enterprise and Robin Curtis replacing the departing Kirstie Alley as Vulcan Lt. Saavik, this was clearly a transitional film in the series, clearing the way for the highly popular Star Trek IV. --Jeff Shannon
