Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan review

67. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Rewatch. Admiral James T. Kirk finds that an old enemy has returned. Khan Noonian Singh had seized the USS Reliant NCC 1864. The story of the cat and mouse chase was done very well. The Genesis Project aspect of the film is certainly interesting. A quick method of terraforming would be useful. McCoy’s questioning about the moral implications was quite pertinent. Spock sacrificing himself for everyone aboard Enterprise is still moving. 9.5/10.
