It is the 23rd century. The Federation Starship U.S.S. Enterprise is on routine training maneuvers and Admiral James T. Kirk seems resigned to the fact that this inspection may well be the last space mission of his career. But Khan is back. Aided by his exiled band of genetic supermen, Khan - brilliant renegade of 20th century Earth - has raided Space Station Regula One, stolen a top secret device called Project Genesis, wrested control of another Federation starship, and now schemes to set a most deadly trap for his old enemy Kirk... with the threat of a universal Armageddon!
"Many people consider this to be the pinnacle of the classic Star Trek timeline. In the movie, the villain Khan Noonien Singh, seen in the original series episode “Space Seed”, returns to take revenge on now-Admiral Kirk. He then hijacks one of the Federation's starships, the USS Reliant, and engages in one of the greatest space battles in the franchise. The film is remembered for its twists and turns, memorable dialogue, and amazing battle scenes. Themes addressed include aging, nostalgia, and sacrifices we make for others. The ending is unforgettable. William Shatner as Kirk and of course Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock gave excellent performances. Another highlight is the great soundtrack by James Horner, which serves as an important character within the movie."
