Details: Product description When a destructive space entity is spotted approaching earth admiral kirk resumes command of the starship enterprise in order to intercept examine and hopefully stop it. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 05/01/2007 Starring: Stephen Collins Leonard Nimoy Run time: 1430 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Robert Wise Special Features More than simply a "director's cut," this new edition features enhanced, and in some cases completely redone, special effects as well as (for a change of pace) cuts to tighten the dawdling story. It may not fly with purists, but director Robert Wise makes his case in the documentary featurette "Redirecting the Future," which details the changes with scene-by-scene comparisons, and on the commentary track, which he shares with special-effects legends Douglas Trumbull and John Dykstra (revisiting work they created over 20 years ago), actor Stephen Collins, and composer Jerry Goldsmith. Elder statesman Wise speaks in a slow and ponderous manner, but he gets his point across. Further documentaries tackle the project's leap from TV pilot to blockbuster feature and the making of the film itself, and a supplemental gallery gathers the original scenes cut or condensed from the theatrical version and all 11 scenes from the 1983 TV version. --Sean Axmaker
