Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989)
Member Rating:  
Kirk (William Shatner), McCoy (DeForest Kelley), and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) are enjoying a vacation in Yosemite National Park when duty calls. Vulcan cult leader Sybok (Laurence Luckinbill) and his followers have invaded a "planet of peace," where delegates from hostile races coexist in a sort of intergalactic United Nations. Ordered to quell the crisis, the Enterprise crew discovers that it's a ruse perpetrated by Sybok, who takes over the ship, piloting it toward the "Great Barrier," an energy field at the galaxy's rim. Sybok, who is revealed to be Spock's half-brother, possesses the ability to help people face their "inner pain." He also believes that God lies beyond the Great Barrier. Once arriving there, however, Sybok and the Enterprise crew discover only an imprisoned alien entity. Shatner wrote the story and made his directorial debut with the film, failing to ape the success that his colleague Nimoy enjoyed with his pair of Trek directing forays. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

Not the best ST movie...possibly the worst actually. But it was still fairly entertaining, if you ignore the whole searching for god thing...

I remember when this movie came out to the theater I Ioved it. Now years later it's just bad. The acting is the worst of all the movies, but this one just put the headstone on the surviving original cast.

The Final Frontier? They should have called it the Search for God. This was all about finding the supreme being. Come on now. These stories are being pushed more and more each time. Save the whales and then search for the creature. Not a bad movie to watch, I just didn't like the story.

This ST movie really doesn't have the adventure & hero worship like ST2, 3, & 4 did. It gets boring. For completists only.
