This one... while not quite as good as I remembered it to be is still some fun entertainment. Of course my tastes has changed since the last time I seen it back in my teens. But still today this film is worth a watch... a fun flick with a good message.

One of the extras on the blu-ray disc is the pilot episode what was an attempt of a TV sitcom version of the film. The pilot basically runs the same story line of the movie but no where near as good. The whole revenge part was rushed... made no sense... and was never explained.

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom

Star Trek
1.28 City on the Edge of Forever
Writer: Harlen Ellison (Writer), Gene Roddenberry (Original Characters By)
Director: Joseph Pevney
Cast: William Shatner (Kirk), Leonard Nimoy (Mr. Spock), Joan Collins (Sister Edith Keeler), DeForest Kelley (Dr. McCoy), James Doohan (Scott), George Takei (Sulu), Nichelle Nichols (Uhura), John Harmon (Rodent), Hal Baylor (Policeman), David L. Ross (Galloway), John Winston (Transporter Chief), Bartell La Rue (Guardian Voice (voice))

Probably the best episode of the original Star Trek series. McCoy gets transported back in time to the 1930s, which changes the present dramatically. Kirk and Spock also travel back to prevent whatever McCoy did.

Rating:
