Review of Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) by Graeme B — 26 Jul 2016
Better than the first and on a par with the second. Some really dated and corny stage effects ( watch out for Lloyd's Klingon villain falling off a rising rock on Genesis as he fights Kirk), but also some nice visuals for its time, specifically the docking station scenes and the new Starfleet ship.
Acting is average and I still cannot quite get over just how quickly Kirk gets over the execution of his son.
The plot is so busy dealing with the bromance between Spock and Kirk, it fails to deal with this personal tragedy adequately and makes the whole thing seem unnecessary.
