When a destructive space entity is spotted approaching Earth, Admiral Kirk resumes command of the Starship Enterprise in order to intercept, examine and hopefully stop it.
Although very slow-paced and basically just a TV episode drawn out much too long, it's still fun to see the team back in action and this time with a much greater budget.
Halliwell (no star): "And a surprisingly boring one. Vast sets and big-screen solemnity hardly make this more enjoyable than some of the TV episodes which got more tricks and philosophical fun into one-third of the length."
Maltin **1/2: "Slow, talkative, and derivative, somewhat redeemed by terrific special effects and majestic Jerry Goldsmith score; still, mainly for purists."
