Shame about the packaging!
I won’t go into details of the plots of the films, save to say that the first, fifth & last are vying to be the worst! A couple are little more than extended episodes. All the transfers are excellent; most of the effects more than survive being shown in 1080p, although some of the planetary-bound scenes in the early films look a little too much like the cardboard rocks of TOS. Make sure that, if you are using a sound bar, it can cope with Dolby 7.1, as this is the standard audio offering. The packaging is just a little awkward and clunky.Another small quibble; surely the directors’ cuts should have been included. Otherwise, this is a great way for fans to own all these films in HD & at a good price. Well worth 5 stars.

State of the Art Cinema system needed to handle the ONE sound option
Lets make this clear this is not about the quality of the films or indeed the magnificent video restoration which is jawdroppingly good - its about the sound which is ONLY available in 7 .1 . No stereo , no 2.1 or 5.1 which our soundbar ( What Hi Fi Best of 2015 Q Audio ) handles without breaking sweat . As a consequence you need subtitles on . I put The Undiscovered Country through headphones - a normal TV programme or film needs a volume of between 28 and 35 - this needed 53 and still wasnt clear . The worst missed opportunity since the invention of shiny discs - once again loyal fans have been defecated on by Paramount.

The first film Stutters
I have been a big Star Trek Fan since I was a child. I started watching the Original series in the 1980's. I watched most Star Trek TV shows except DS9 which I couldn't get into. Ever since I saw this Blu Ray box set was released a few years ago I wanted to buy it. So a few weeks ago I bought the boxset.I read the reviews and Saw some people say that "some disks stutter or just don't work". I As soon as I got the Box Set I startedt watching each film from the first to the last film and from start to finish in every film. All the Disks played on my Panasonic DP-UB391EBK with the latest Firmware update installed. All but one disk played perfectly.Star Trek The motion Picture plays perfectly up until 1hour 9minutes 32seconds in. First the audio stutters for a second , then the picture breaks up , the audio stops working and the video skips ahead one second. To remedy this I had to rewind the video a few seconds to get the audio back. After that the video continues on just fine.I did not have the trouble I see some others say they have with some of the disks not playing and nine out of the ten movies play perfectly on my 4K blu ray player.I also saw some others say the video quality isn't good but on my setup the video quality is perfectly sharp and colours are greatly improved on the Blu rays compared to the DVD versions. In fact some of the Star Ship models are very detailed.The audio is very good too but it could do with being improved on the first three or four movies. But those are old movies so I doubt they can do much more to improve the sound on those movies.Anyway. I hope this review helps with your decision to buy the box set. In my opinion it was well worth buying. Its just a pitty the first movie in the collection has that one flaw in it.

Superb set, poor packaging...
Superb set only slight let down by the packaging which could have been more sturdy, but for this bargain price it's ok. Great picture as one would expect with Blu-ray. And good sound. We had full Dolby Digital with none of the apparent issues mentioned by other reviewers (who own Soundbars...we have an old Yamaha Home Cinema system which still belts out great sound...)Recommended to any Trek fan.

A Must For Dedicated "Trekkies"
Very good quality and good for a walk down memory lane for the devoted "Trekkie". The sound quality is superb (I was listening on a sound bar set for 3D sound) The picture quality was crisp (I used an HDMI cable) the freeze frame was perfect. Lovely product and the box makes it very easy to access each disc with little chance of causing any damage. It is compact and stores well. The insert disc unit of the storage box does come out, but that is an advantage as that allows easier access to the discs. Overall a product of very high quality. I fully recommend this product on Blu-Ray.

INTERESTING & EXCITING!
Great collection of old STAR TREK Movies, going back to when Captain Kirk took the bridge seat in THE MOTION PICTURE! I like the storyline of STAR TREK - GENERATIONS! THE VOYAGE HOME is an interesting storyline when one person from the 20th century goes to the future with the crew, on a Klingon ship!
