STAR TREK 3 is not the best in the saga, but is still a bunch of fun, with very little objectionable content to boot. Language is mild, with some "d**n"s, "h*lls", and "bas**rd"s. There is some mild violence as well, consisting of some people being shot with vapor rays. There is one brief, somewhat intense scene where a man is stabbed with a knife.

Parents need to know that the second and third Star Trek movies are a lot more violent then Star Trek: The Motion Picture. In one scene a worm-like creature attacks one of the Klingons, and the creature is then squeezed to death. Later on, one of the good guys gets stabbed in the stomach and dies. Then another character is thrown into a pit of lava, and disappears in a burst of flames. But since the special effects aren't very good in the lava scene, it's not as graphic as it might sound. The language is too excessive for a PG movie. While the bad language isn't used as often as in Star Trek II, they find time to get in a 5-letter expletive in one scene.

I liked that Spock put his spirit in docter bones (who were always arguing) when he died and the way bones showed that spock was really a good friend. the lengths that the crew from the Enterprise, especially captain Kirk, took to reserect spock shows how much people will give up and endure for a friend. this movie took the theme from the previous star trek movie, "the good of the many outwiegh the good of the few", and flipped it with the same amopunt of meaning.
