Maybe I need to watch this as a more mature adult, because when I saw it as a teenager, I thought it was a huge snorefest.

You will probably still be disappointed. The rule of thumb is stick to the even number star trek movies. The Odds are all duds

The director's cut is better than the theatrical version and watching it when I was older was a better experience. Still, it's a bit of a slough at times.

It is definitely one of the more boring movies with the original cast. It's even worse when you realize that the story was essentially the same as one of the episodes in the Original Series, "The Changeling". https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0708454/ (At least that one was just one hour long!)

My favorite of ALL of them, especially in comparison to The Woke Generation onward.

Robert Wise was a master filmmaker; Freddie Francis' anamorphic cinematography was golden; the formal tone of this film makes all the rest look like cowboys & indians; and given that this was a symphonic visual tone poem rather than an action flick, Jerry Goldsmith's score was of course the best Trek ever got. This edition debuted weirdly on Paramount+ in 4K HDR exclusively, but it's nice now not to have to rely on my subscription for this (and to get the higher bitrate on fixed media). All in.

I remember my dad telling me that he skipped class in college to go see this when he came out and realized at the end that class would have been more fun.

Agreed. Saw it opening night in 1979. The beginning of an entire franchise spanning decades. Too cerebral for most. Yes, it has its flaws but is an ambitious film regardless. Always enjoy watching.

Oh, it still is, but it's a beautiful film to look at.

The directors cut adds 25 minutes of extra-boring footage Big Grin

Not true.

While the director's cut does restore/extend and add back scenes, it also removes other sections.

In the end, it is 4 minutes longer than the original theatrical release. The version that added 25 minutes was the earlier (1980s) TV cut.

This appears to be the 4K Ultra HD version, which is the same as Wise's 2001 Director's Cut, but with extensive HD restoration and SFX upgrades done a few years ago.
