Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. It got panned as probably the ‘worst’ of the Trek movie films (akin to the ST: Insurrection, which sucked swamp water), but, like everything else in hindsight, it had its charms. Shatner wrote and directed it, and surprisingly, all the cast agreed that he was very pleasant to work with, as they were expecting an egomaniac to horsewhip them. One of Shatner’s big beefs (and I have to agree with him here) is that the studio didn’t give him the SFX budget he needed to pull it off properly. This came out the same time that Next Generation was on the air, and TNG’s SFX were better than what the studio conjured up for The Shat. The overall storyline was TV scripted hokum, IMHO, but there were some good scenes and subplots buried in there that made it for good watching. It’s not on the same level as The Wrath of Khan or First Contact, but it’s better than the critics would lead you to believe. A good, rainy Saturday night movie to watch.
