- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A film that for all its visual splendors falls well short of its aspirations"
-
"Gene Roddenberry and director Robert Wise have corralled an enormous technical crew, and the result is state-of-the-art screen magic."
-
"It is a purely mechanical movie that is no more dazzling to the eye than a nighttime landing at Kennedy airport."
-
"It lacks the dazzling brilliance and originality of 2001 But on its own terms it's a very well-made piece of work, with an interesting premise."
-
"This 1979 movie adaptation of the cult TV series is blandness raised to an epic scale."
-
"Thought-provoking, well constructed science fiction."
-
"For non-addicts, the smart plot and effects go some way towards compensating for the plastic characters and costumes."
