“Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home” is a Sci-Fi Action Adventure based on Gene Roddenberry’s original creation, screenplay written by Steve Meerson, Peter Krikes, Harve Bennett and Nicholas Meyer, story by Leonard Nimoy and Harve Bennett and Directed by Leonard Nimoy.
It is the 23rd century and Admiral James T.
Kirk (William Shatner) and his fugitive crew, Spock (Leonard Nimoy), Dr. McCoy
(DeForest Kelley), Scotty (James Doohan), Sulu (George Takei), Chekov (Walter
Koenig), Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) and Saavik (Robin Curtis), return to Earth at
the same time as a mysterious alien probe.
After trying to communicate with what sounds
like whale call, and receiving no response, it threatened by its actions to
destroy the Earth, evaporating the oceans, and devastating the atmosphere, so
Kirk and his crew must time travel back to San Francisco in 1986 to retrieve
the only beings who can communicate with the probe, humpback whales.
But despite their extensive experiences in the
far-off reaches of the galaxy, none of them were prepared for what they found
in 1986.
A decent Star Trek adventure with an important
message with all the usual faces and a few additions, Jane Wyatt as Amanda,
Mark Lenard as Sarek, Brock Peters as Admiral Cartwright and the delightful
Catherine Hicks as Gillian.
