Wow, much more enjoyable than the 5th one! This story is about prejudices between the human race and the Klingons as they are attempting to work toward peace. An attack happens that stinks of a frame-job and much of the movie is spent on the whodunit mystery. Shatner and Nemoy as well as the rest of the crew of the Enterprise do an excellent job reprising their roles. George Takei's character has been promoted to Captain of his own ship and he makes an effort to aid when he can. Shatner is beginning to falter a little in his line delivery. I could not stop laughing in the first scene at how premeditated everything he said was and how it came out like a shot! Still, you can't deny his charisma and the ladies can't stay away. The Cold War overtones are very strong and one character quotes Shakespeare often to heighten drama. The effects are very good and it holds up well in 2009 in that respect. The tension and action keep you on the edge of your seat. The resolution had a bit of corniness (watch for the well known finale - THE SLOW CLAP!) but overall a great movie. And why shouldn't it be? It was directed by Nicholas Meyer, the same director of Wrath of Khan, arguably the best Star Trek movie. Also Leonard Nemoy had a hand in writing with the story so it's near and dear to his heart. It is with a heavy heart that this movie ends as the cast literally signs off with their signatures in the credits. We miss this crew who have spent six movies and a long television career entertaining us, exciting us, and teaching us.Read full review
While some of the original cast members would make cameo appearances in subsequent Star Trek films and TV series, this was the final Star Trek film to feature the entire original cast and served as a fitting sendoff some 25 years after the TV series made its debut. Directed by Nicholas Meyer, who had previously helmed Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan almost a decade earlier, this was one of the best of the Star Trek films. It is fast-paced but not frenetic, taking the time needed to keep the story character driven. The deluxe collectors' edition includes a second DVD of bonus material, including 'making of' featurettes, interviews and other goodies, all of which make for an enhanced value proposition that is worth tracking down over the single DVD package.

There are only one trek movie with such amount of talented actors and it's Star Trek 6. Here you will see besides tos crew the performance of "Worf" "Rand" "Odo" they are really great. After all its also the most Klingonish movie ever made. Storyline of it is take direction more to militaristic/politic/cultural than to exploration (ST 5) or fun (ST 4). If you like classic scifi movies you definetly likes this one. ST 6 makes perfect addition to my movie collection of scifi and I think it would makes to your's too. _//

This film was the last to feature the "original" ST crew from the 60's. I remember seeing this in the theater, and thinking "This is it." I grew up with this ST crew, so this movie is near and dear to my heart. The humor, the action, the Klingons, all make it worth while. You gotta' love the purple blood! And Spock making Kim Catrall moan is a scene! The way that this movie and it's settings are refrenced in future Trek projects makes it even more memorable. A must see for any ST fan!
