Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

Delivers all one could really ask for from a Star Trek film. Many consider this to be the finest film in the series, and it may be, at least from the original series. I, however, am a bigger fan of The Next Generation. But when Kirk, Spock, and Bones team up it makes science fiction fan boy history. Ricardo Montalban is the memorable villain, Khan, and he reminds us of the old Klingon proverb, "Revenge is a dish best served cold," the same quote that begins Kill Bill. I actually thought it was too short, not that I thoroughly enjoyed it (though I did enjoy it), but I didn't feel that the conflict was developed as much as it should have been. But, hey, it's fun.
