Star Trek Ratings & Reviews
- RichardNovember 3, 2025Saw it on TV and it felt like the future had polyester uniforms, cardboard corridors and more imagination than most shows today can muster. Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. McCoy, the holy trinity of logic, emotion and swagger, boldly go where no one had gone before. The Enterprise wasn’t just a ship; it was a stage for morality plays, philosophical dilemmas and the occasional green skinned romance. The sets wobbled, the phasers sparked and the matte paintings hinted at entire civilizations. The tone? Visionary, theatrical and deeply human. It wasn’t about the effects, it was about ideas. And while the remastered versions with CGI planets and polished space battles try to modernize it, something gets lost. The charm of the original, the model work, the lighting, the handcrafted weirdness, was the future, as imagined in the ’60s. Replacing it with slick CGI feels like repainting a vintage comic book: cleaner, but not truer.
- Vincent ReggianniniMay 22, 2025What more can be said of this fantastic series that was so ahead of its time. Many of the stories are filtered through the eyes of the three main characters of the show, Kirk, Spock and McCoy - each representing the concepts of Logos (Spock), Pathos (McCoy) and Ethos (Kirk). The high concept shows may seem heavy handed today, but in the late 1960s these were never before seen on network television.
