Star Trek: The Motion Picture
4K Ultra HD
Blu Ray
Star Trek: The Motion Picture Director's Edition is an important and exciting film that has grown on viewers over time and has been fully restored and reconstructed for 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray.

Paramount's meticulous 4K scan and restoration of Star Trek: The Motion Picture for the Director's Edition UHD presentation required a complete reconstruction of the film, bringing Robert Wise’s vision to the Ultra HD format.
The Director's Edition offers a slightly better narrative experience and a demo-worthy Atmos audio mix with clear instrumentals and full stage engagement.
This UHD set includes both new and returning extras, such as audio commentaries, and reviews of both new content and legacy materials.
Admiral James T. Kirk returns to the helm of a newly transformed U.S.S. in response to an unidentified alien intruder destroying three powerful Klingon cruisers, and Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a grandiose product of the ambition spurred by the success of Star Wars.
Director: Robert Wise
Actors: William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley
Plot: When an alien spacecraft of enormous power is spotted approaching Earth, Admiral James T. Kirk resumes command of the overhauled USS Enterprise in order to intercept it.
