Anno di produzione: 1982

Stato del film: Catalogo

Paese d'origine: USA
Versioni alternative: - Network TV version features additional footage not included in theatrical release, including some dialog between Spock and Saavik, where Spock talks about the "human ego." - In the TV version, there are also several scenes that represent alternate takes of scenes present in the theatrical/video version. For example, in the scene on Regula I in which the scientists are debating why the Reliant is coming to take the Genesis project, Kirk's son says, "scientists have always been pawns of the military." Comparison of the two versions makes it clear that they are different takes - he places emphasis on different words, and one scene is slightly longer. - In the network TV version, during the sickbay scene where the young Ensign dies, we find out that the Ensign is actually Scotty's nephew, thus explaining Scotty's emotional state. In the theatrical version the same scene is shorter, leaving out any mention of who the Ensign is and why Scotty is so upset. - In one of the early US TV versions, there is a scene prior to the Enterprise setting out when Kirk is inspecting Engineering. Kirk was teasing Scotty's nephew about being so young. The Ensign ducks out of formation and hands Kirk a "left handed spanner." - There is a short scene missing in the Network TV version when Kirk is in a shuttle, piloted by Sulu, right before docking with the Enterprise. Kirk makes some glib remark about "having (Sulu) at the helm for three weeks...I don't think these kids can steer"; Sulu responds, "Well I'm delighted." But in the theatrical release, Sulu goes on to say, "Well I'm delighted, anytime to be aboard the Enterprise is a treat." - Another missing scene in the TV version takes place during Kirk's inspection of Engineering. Kirk stands near to Scotty's nephew. Seconds tick by until finally the young midshipman can no longer contain his pride about the state of Engineering and says, "I'm sure you'll find everything is in ship shape, Capt'n". "Oh do you?" Kirk reponds incredulously. "Do you have any idea, midshipman Preston, of the ribbing I get in the officer's mess about the Enterprise, and that it's nothing more than a flying garbage heap?" Stammering, the boy responds, "Oh no sir, the Enterprise is the finest ship in the fleet." At this point Kirk and Scotty have already locked glances and are smiling about their inside joke. - Another alternate take in the TV version is a scene featuring Kirk and an off-duty Saavik talking in a lift. The TV version makes use of close-ups not present in the theatrical release. In addition, Kirstie Alley plays the scene more seductively. - The network version has Kirk's question to McCoy, "It's charming... what is it?" and McCoy replies, "They're for your eyes. For most patients..." - After the death of Preston in sickbay, there is a short scene between Kirk and McCoy. Kirk asks McCoy if he's ok, and McCoy says yes and proceeds to thank Kirk for getting them away from Khan, to which Kirk replies that they're only alive because he knows more about starships than Khan does. - Additional dialogue featuring David Marcus and Saavik was shot for the film's epilogue on the bridge, but this was cut. - Original UK Video was cut and released as PG. Only later was the video reissued uncut as a 15 Cert. One of the scenes cut from the first release was the 'bug' coming out of Chekov's ear. - Original film prints did not include the "II" in the title.

Plot: In the second Star Trek movie, Admiral Kirk is now a Starfleet Academy instructor, while Captain Spock serves as a cadet training officer, while being in command of the U.S.S. Enterprise. Meanwhile, scientists aboard Space Station Regula I are conducting the Project Genesis experiment, and the U.S.S. Reliant is assigned to the Genesis project. While surveying a lifeless planet in the Ceti Alpha star system, Cmdr. Chekov and Capt. Clark Terrell beam down to the sixth planet, and find a shocking discovery, in which cargo containers are located. Unknown to the Reliant crew was that the cargo containers housed refugees from the Eugenics Wars of 1990s Earth, with Khan Noonian Singh in charge. Khan later revealed that Ceti Alpha VI exploded, and shifted the orbit of the fifth planet as a Mars-like haven. Khan manages to hijack the Reliant, and manages to steal the Genesis Device. Admiral Kirk takes the U.S.S. Enterprise on a training mission, and is involved in a surprise attack, in which Khan vows to avenge his exile. Unfortunately, Captain Spock sacrifices himself to save the Enterprise from the premeditated arming of the Genesis torpedo, and after his death, his casket (which is a converted torpedo tube) was fired from the U.S.S. Enterprise... Admiral James T. Kirk is still in charge of a space fleet, but from behind a desk. Dr. McCoy and Mr. Spock convince him to take on a mission which sounds simple, but with the appearance of the mysterious Khan, things get a little tricky. It is the twenty-third century. Admiral James T. Kirk is feeling old; the prospect of accompanying his old ship the Enterprise--now a Starfleet Academy training ship--on a two-week cadet cruise is not making him feel any younger. But the training cruise becomes a deadly serious mission when Khan appears after years of exile--and holding the power of creation itself...
