If Spock hadn't died in the previous film, this film would had been called "Star Trek III: Return to Genesis" and would had seen Captain Spock accompanied by Admiral James T.

Savvik and David Marcus whom are being held hostage by Kruge, whom demands Kirk hands over the Genesis device or he will kill them, unaware Genesis is slowly disintegrating and Kirk and Spock race against time to save Savvik and Marcus before Genesis is destroyed.

When Valkris, the Klingon spy, first approaches the freighter captain from behind, we can only see the bottom portion of her torso. We cannot see her face, but there definitely is something covering her front. However, when we see her face in the next shot, her face and torso are uncovered. See more »

STAR TREK III: THE SEARCH FOR SPOCK picks up where THE WRATH OF KHAN left off with a bittersweet situation. The Starship crew have defeated Khan, but in the process, Spock died, McCoy (Kelley) is beginning to go insane, and Admiral Kirk (Shatner) and the rest of the team have lost control of the Starship Enterprise, but when Spock's father visits unexpectedly, they steal the ship back and thus beginning the search for Mr. Spock, with the evil Klingons right behind them. A decent, but rather weak entry in the Star Trek movies that manages to push past average status with the help of some great special effects and Nimoy's fine direction.
