 "Not perfect but worth the $$$" 2009-08-23
By Neil Soter (Misawa, Japan)
It seems everyone is a professional movie critic these days. I was not disappointed by this collection, and while not perfect it is a huge upgrade over the DVD's.



Some have said that these are not "true HD" versions of the films. This is false, they are indeed full HD versions of the films. The resolution is adequate, and was a treat for me given how many times I have seen these movies on DVD.



They did go a little crazy with DNR at times, but it is not frequent and not very distracting unless you are going out of your way to notice it.



I feel it was worth the money I spent, and a worthy addition to my collection.

 "Fantastic" 2009-08-23
By Robert Hathaway (NJ)
Unbelievable quality for 30 year old movies and just gets better from there. While watching on a new LED/LCD Samsung 8000 and Pioneer Elite bdp-23fd (IMHO best quality picture in the world), seeing a window on the world 3d effect on the Star Trek movies and HD sound is like a dream. The resolution, 3d effect, overall picture quality and sound is all better than I could have expected (or even imagined). I've owned all star trek's since VHS thru Laser and DVD, and now bluray is a very most welcome addition. Seeing the picture quality improve in these movies over the years is a genuine testament to the amazing progress in technology to deliver entertainment at ever new levels. Can't wait for the next set and the latest Star Trek! My highest recommendation for Star Trek fans.

 "Suckers Release" 2009-08-20
By Frank Sellers (Philadelphia, PA USA)
The picture and sound are great (for the most part, though there are black level issues and some more cleaning up that could've been done), but the content isn't only a retread of the DVD releases, they're all the theatrical releases. For exemple, the Director's Cut of that snoozefest 'Star Trek: The Motion Picture' is superior to the horrible theatrical release, but it's not included here because Paramount, no doubt, is planning to release directors' cuts and special editions in order to entice fans to shell out more money. I predict those future BDs will each have customized disk menus, unlike these BDs which have the exact same menu on each disk, and new content. The only thing new here is the Captains Summit which doesn't even include all the captains of all the shows... where are Janeway and Archer? (Though it is fun to watch William Shatner in all his manic craziness and hear Patrick Stewart talk about what an "ass" he was at the beginning of TNG.)



Yes, I am one of the suckers who bought this BD set, but I've seen the movies so many, many times in all their formats I don't watch them very often anymore, anyway. It is a shame Paramount hasn't invited any of the original cast members other than William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy to contribute to commentaries; those actors remained in those roles for so long because they, too, had fan followings and I'm sure Uhura's fans or Sulu's fans would have greatley appreciate it. Perhaps DeForrest Kelley died before they started recording DVD commentaries (though I have a feeling he probably would have been invited to record one or more), but imagine what anecdotes the late James Doohan would have told about his days on the set, stories now lost forever.



Shame on me for not researching this BD set more thoroughly before buying. If I had, I would've waited until the proper release is made somewhere down the road, just like I'm not going to buy the theatrical release of 'The Lord of the Rings' on blu-ray--I want it all!

 "Not Blu-Ray Quality" 2009-08-17
By Ol' Sci-Fi Guy (Caz Calif)
The movies are great ... this transfer to blu-ray is not. It is a shame to even call these Star Trek movies on blu-ray because they have not been enhanced to match the high-def quailty blu-ray provides. Save your money ... or better yet ... buy the First Season of the original Star Trek series on blu-ray. The entire season is enhanced, even the music re-recorded, graphics enhanced ... a true work of art restoring the entire season. Whatever "bean counter" executive decided to release these Star Trek movies WITHOUT enhancing the films to match the enhanced technology of blu-ray should be fired. Releasing these great films to look ordinary on an extrordinary format shows no understanding of sci-fi, technology or the fan base. ...and by the way ... even the packaging is cheap and began falling apart the day after I got it.

 "Australian Fan" 2009-08-16
By Alan Henning (Sydney Australia)
I have bee a fan of Star Trek for 30 years. I watched all the movies on VHS and then DVD. When I found the release of the 6 movies on Blu Ray I could not wait. Watched the 6 movies over 1 week and enjoyed the fantastic quality of picture and HD sound. I just wish the Motion Picture companies would use 16 x 9 as the format so we can all get a full picture on our HD panels. Can't wait for the next 4 to be released.
