Star Trek: The Motion Picture

Respectfully, it's the definition of meh
The director could have told and made the audience feel everything that he wanted for the scenes if he spent half as much time on the long takes.
Funny enough spending all that time took me out if the scene, and the plot...it was okay

Sept. 2024 Rewatch (Director's Edition):
Captures the majesty of space travel and the fear of the unknown like no other Trek film, especially through the visuals and Jerry Goldsmith's excellent score. I never bought into the Decker/Ilia relationship/situation (more in comments)

It felt like they had a script for a normal episode and told the actors to just take 4 times as long to deliver their lines to make it movie length. Add in a bunch of unnecessary 5 minute long establishing shots and you’ve got this movie. But it’s still Star Trek

Better than its place in history, but not as good as most of the movies that follow. This film translates Star Trek to the big screen very well, but the story gets lost in the gratuitous beauty shots of the Enterprise. It earns the nickname "The Motionless Picture."

It was a little self-indulgent, DNF
