Critic Reviews

William Shatner's inauspicious feature directing debut is a double letdown.

-Variety StaffFull Review

[The] special effects, despite the hefty budget, look strictly bargain basement.

-Jonathan RosenbaumFull Review

Captain Kirk and his crew go where too many film makers have too often gone before.

-Caryn JamesFull Review

Bloated, bombastic and maddeningly pretentious.

-Peter Travers

The whole point of the movie has something to do with the search for God and Eden, but the theme is presented in the most mundane fashion imaginable.

-James BerardinelliFull Review

A snoozola of astronomic proportions.

-Rita KempleyFull Review

Of all of the Star Trek movies, this is the worst.

-Roger EbertFull Review

Worst in series; some tricky religious content.

-Charles CassadyFull Review

Easily the weakest of the original cast Star Trek films.

-Scott NashFull Review

Final Frontier is a warmly crafted picture only lacking a sophisticated technical and dramatic finesse the earlier features held in abundance. The film is never aggressively odious, just undernourished.

-Brian OrndorfFull Review

Did it really take William Shatner in the director's chair to finally give us a decent Star Trek movie?

-Josh LarsenFull Review

weeeeeak

-Stefan Birgir Stefansson

Although the film's ontological approach may be intriguing, this rather dull entry fails to generate the kind of thoughtful, exciting adventure that made the Gene Roddenberry TV series so compelling.

-Full Review

The worst Star Trek movie.

-Matthew De AbaituaFull Review

Proceed with caution.

-Jeffrey M. AndersonFull Review

...delivers all the pleasure of a plucked pubic hair.

-Mark BourneFull Review

The plot, about a quest for the Ultimate Answer, resembles something Douglas Adams would have thrown in the bin.

-Full Review

Shatner can be funny, but he stinks as a director.

-Kevin Carr

Disappointing production, but always good to visit the old crew.

-Steve Crum

Isn't horrible, but I'd only recommend to a diehard.

-Alex Sandell

The only thing worse than letting William Shatner act in a movie is letting William Shatner direct one.

-Blake Davis

It will likely maintain its long-cemented reputation as the worst film in the series.

-James KendrickFull Review

absolutely terrible... a vanity project for William Shatner

-Christopher NullFull Review

A science fiction thriller with the moral message that we should look for God within the human heart and appreciate the moral dimensions of friendship

-Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatFull Review

The worst movie of the franchise. Even God couldn't save it. An embarrassment to the series.

-Bob Bloom

Only the most fanatical Trekkies would find this dismal entry palatable.

-Rob Vaux

It's amazing an entire studio would bend over to make William Shatner's ego trip.

-Jeffrey Westhoff

There is no doubt about it - Star Trek V is a bad movie.

-Shay CaseyFull Review

As 1979's The Motion Picture courted derision for its cerebral 2001 approach, The Final Frontier damages it's own cause with a high-brow 'Man's Search for God' story.

-Danny GraydonFull Review

Probably the worst film in the series.

-James O'EhleyFull Review
