Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984)
Pretty good follow up to The Wrath of Khan, even though it pales in comparison to that film. William Shatner’s acting abilities seem to have disappeared between movies, and the death of his son had little emotional impact, plus a number of minor flaws (plot holes, strange coincidences). Leonard Nimoy’s direction was very good, and the Genesis planet made for an interesting and aesthetically pleasing setting. The plot, while nothing extraordinary, was good, and the characters all felt like themselves. Overall, while nothing amazing, it was an immensely entertaining threequel.
7/10
The recasting of Lt. Saavik was a major disappointment.
To be honest, I didn’t even realise she’d been recast. It’s been a while since I’ve seen TWOK though.
