The Director's Edition is Bob Wise's definitive vision of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. And what a vision!

"This DVD version has improved and restored and made Star Trek: TMP a pleasure to watch rather than a chore. You're less inclined to hit fast-forward in those lengthy scenes. This movie will resonate well with mature-age viewers because the story is not what you would expect from today's action packed cinema. I appreciated the movie more as I got older.

William Shatner, who saw the completed film for the first time at the world premiere, was struck by the overall sluggishness of it, and was convinced that the Star Trek franchise died there and then. He opined, "Well, that's it. We gave it our best shot, it wasn't good, and it will never happen again." Recalling his initial reaction 15 years later, he added, "Shows you what I know."
