Jesus I totally forgot how fucking awesome this movie is. I
remember reading that Khan was named one of the top villains in movie history …
and yeah I would have to agree. Ricardo was awesome. This is the problem with
Star Trek 1 … the viewer has to connect with the villain in some way, but in
the Motion Picture the villain is a mutherfuckin probe.
Everything is a vast improvement over the 1st
movie. The effects are decent and the script is just light years better. Kirk
is back to his old self, and has some great lines. The battle between Khan in
the Reliant and Kirk in the Enterprise is just so cool.
I like the characters of Dr. Marcus and Kirk’s son David … as
well as the whole plot line with the Genesis Device. As for the Kirstie Alley
character … it adds nothing. Although I am reminded that she did look hot at
some point, be it thirty years ago. Yet again Nimoy/Spock steals the show. The
ending to Wrath of Khan may be one of the best endings in movie history, at
least in the sci-fi genre. I actually went back and watched it twice.

The original series is a classic and well deserving of its popularity, but Star Trek wouldn't be Star Trek without Wrath of Khan. If they had just made the series, the cartoon, and then that first movie, nobody would've cared. This was the one that changed everything and turned the series into a phenomenon.
Hey...you know what? I wrote a review of this too:

KAAAAAAAAAAHNNNNNNNNN
anyways I havent seen this film in years I should probably rewatch it.
I should just put a link directly to your reviews from now on. That was a very good job of pointing out every single flw in the Wrath of Khan. The funny thing is, the actors performances are so good that I really didn't notice how flawed the movie was. Very entertaining though.
I must've been in a bad mood when I wrote that or something.
Check this out. It's INSANE:

saw that when some body did "every opening credit sequence" from the Simpsons at once. it was pretty cool.
the all star trek one is kinda annoying though.
This movie is the bomb. I don't care what anybody says.
