Reviews (1)
My review is influenced by nostalgia - I saw the movie and series on television a long time ago. It is a naive and cheap imitation of Star Wars, a B-movie spectacle that nowadays has meaning only as a springboard for the successful remake. Compared to today, the original movie and series are equally, and perhaps even more, naive than the original Star Trek compared to its current form. Overall impression: 35%.
