It's the eco-friendly Star Trek movie! Kirk Spock and the rest of the crew travel back in time to retrieve some now extinct humpback whales who are needed to save Earth four hundred years in the future. A probe from deep space is accidentally destroying Earth as it stops to check in with the whales. Actually this is a fun movie with a decidedly lighter tone than the first three movies. Nimoy is hilarious as an out-of-touch Spock who can't grasp the slang of 20th Century Earth. Kirk has a good time with the colorful language himself. This movie could be better except that the Dr. Taylor character played by Catherine Hicks isn't very likeable. The special effects aren't the best even by 1980's standards.
