A smart script with excellent writing that holds true to Roddenberry's vision. I miss when Trek was intelligently written. Shatner shines in these movies, and gets a chance to show his full talent. All the CG in the world can't hide poor writing and a lack of vision.

Kirstie Alley RIP, i love this movie and i loved your work

Admiral Kirk’s final farewell & eulogy to Spock at the end of The Wrath of Khan “We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. And yet it should be noted that in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: ‘of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most … human’.” Leonard Nimoy 1931-2015 Rest in Peace

I saw this movie in the theater back in 1982. As a dedicated Trekker, I hoped desperately it would be at least ok. I was wrong. From the first notes of Alexander Courage's Star Trek fanfare, to the final end titles with James Horner's thrilling music. I knew that Harve Bennet had not only made a hit. But had knocked the ball out of the park with this one. Still the BEST of all the Star Trek movies. This is the one that literally SAVED Star Trek from oblivion. Especially after the disaster of the first movie. If "Wrath of Khan" had failed, that would have been it.

I'm not going to deny it. As I was watching this scene, I totally lost it.

But it expresses the embodiment of the 23rd century human need for self betterment and in it, Roddenberry's vision, in all its beauty is conveyed.

I think a small part of me will ALWAYS resent the fact that they felt the need to bring Spock back after this absolutely PERFECT send-off. This felt right. It felt earned. It felt, pardon the expression, logical.
