Amazon.com:
Widely considered the best movie in the "classic Trek" series of feature films, Star Trek IV returns to one of the favorite themes of the original TV series--time travel--to bring Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, Sulu, Uhura, and Chekov from the 23rd century to present-day San Francisco. In their own time, the Starfleet heroes encounter an alien probe emitting a mysterious message--a message delivered in the song of the now-extinct Earth species of humpback whales. Failure to respond to the probe will result in Earth's destruction, so Kirk and company time-travel to 20th-century Earth--in their captured Klingon starship--to transport a humpback whale to the future in an effort to peacefully communicate with the alien probe. The plot sounds somewhat absurd in description, but as executed by returning director Leonard Nimoy, this turned out to be a crowd-pleasing adventure, filled with humor and lively interaction among the favorite Star Trek characters. Catherine Hicks (from TV's 7th Heaven) plays the 20th-century whale expert who is finally convinced of Kirk's and Spock's benevolent intentions. With ample comedy taken from the clash of future heroes with 20th-century urban realities, Star Trek IV was a box-office smash, satisfying mainstream audiences and hardcore Trek fans alike. --Jeff Shannon

- A Trek classic
Of all the Star Trek movies, this is probably one of the best and one of the few to make an impact with a wide audience (only Star Trek - First Contact compares). The plotline is funny, uplifting, and memorable. Having seen Humpback Whales in the wild, I also appreciate the movie's message - that in harming our environment, we are harming ourselves.
With that said, Star Trek IV is tough to follow if you aren't at least somewhat familiar with the Trek universe. This movie especially picks ... Read More

- Old Favorite
My family had an old copy of this movie that we taped off the TV ages ago, and we watched it over and over until the tape started falling apart.Now I've bought the fancy edition for my parents as a gift, and while I was at it I bought myself a copy too.So now whenever any of us want to see a starship crew save the whales and try to navigate the primitive 20th century, we can!I particularly love the funny moments; there are some great ones with each of the characters.Like Spock versus the punk ...

Rating: - Part III of the Star Trek Trilogy
The final movie of the so-called "Star Trek trilogy" wraps up everything nicely.Kirk and Company are facing serious charges for disobeying Starfleet in the previous movie.Thankfully for them, they have an opportunity to save the Earth, and in the process, their careers.
At the end of the movie, Kirk and Company are treated as heroes and Admiral Kirk is reduced to Captain.With the rank of Captain, Kirk is given command of the new Enterprise-A.The heroic actions of Kirk and Company ... Read More
Rating: - Best Star Trek Movie, EVER!
Even after seeing the new Star Trek movie it still doesnt compare, in my book, to this film.The clarity of the issue, the tight, clear storyline, the comedy (quality, timing & delivery), the great city of San Francisco and its remarkable beauty all make for the most memorable Star Trek movie ever.

I had this movie on vhs, and decided to get it on dvd.The seller was gracious, and the package arrived a few days later.
