Good movie, don't be so wimpy
This movie reflects the attitudes that were very strong during the close of the cold war. The gore that everyone speaks of is purple and ridiculous to be shocked by. The reference to smoking;so what, he didn't do it regularly and its a scene that takes 5 seconds at most. The space battles, again, so what. I watched Star Wars at 5 yrs old, and it did NOT scar me for life. People need to quit shielding children to the point where the REAL world will eat them alive; you are not doing them any favors. Otherwise there were some amusing parts, some suspenseful, alot of action, and most notably the requirement to think. The end is a little corny,we are talking Star Trek, but all in all , its a good movie.

A Good Finale...
Though not the best in the series, THE UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY does not disappoint, and it serves as a rousing finale to one of the greatest sci-fi film sagas.
Language is milder than the other films, containing one "b**ch", one "d*mmit", and one comical "go to hell". Sex is very minor as well; Kirk kicks an alien in the knee, and the alien seems very hurt. Only later does he discover that "not all aliens keep their genitals in the same place." Violence is iffy, though only one scene is any worse than the others. Unknown assassins go to a Klingon ship and shoot people with vapor rays, causing them to bleed in zero-gravity. One man has his arm shot off.

A little strong for a Star Trek movie
This one should have been PG-13. This was a really good movie, I'd even say this is one of Star Trek's finest films, but the scene where people are bleeding in zero gravity was way too excessive for a PG movie. Mission To Mars had a similar scene where some blood was floating through the ship, but the scene in Star Trek VI wasn't nearly that mild. Another scene shows an alien giving Kirk something that looks like a cigar, then he starts to smoke it. The language is pretty excessive, too. In the first half of the movie, a main character uses a strong religious exclamation. There is a lot of average cussing, also (mostly from McCoy).
