The Herald Sun reported that "those who found The Final Frontier weighed down by emotional gravity and over-the-top spiritualism [welcomed] the follow-up with its suspense, action and subtle good humor." [63] The dialogue and banter were considered positive and defining aspects of the film. Janet Maslin of The New York Times said that " Star Trek VI is definitely colorful, but even more of its color comes from conversation, which can take some amusingly florid turns." [60] Critic Hal Hinson commented that Meyer "[is] capable of sending up his material without cheapening it or disrupting our belief in the reality of his yarn," and called the one-liners an organic part of the film's "jocular, tongue-in-cheek spirit". [64] Susan Wloszczyna of USA Today said that with Meyer directing, "this last mission gets almost everything right—from the nod to late creator Gene Roddenberry to in-jokes about Kirk's rep as an alien babe magnet." [65] Nichelle Nichols as Uhura: Enterprise 's communications officer. Nichols had always insisted on wearing a skirt; although the standard female uniform used trousers, the costume designer created a skirted version specifically for her.

Martia was not the first shapeshifter on Star Trek, but the character was the first to be created using computer-generated digital morphing technology. [13] The effects, dubbed "morfs", were more advanced revisions of the technology used for films such as Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Animator John Berton attempted new, more complicated morfs, including moving the camera and morphing two characters talking; special care had to be taken to line up the characters properly in plate photography. Martia becomes Kirk while talking, requiring similar line deliveries from Iman and Shatner; Farrar supervised the set photography for the morfs and had the actors speak their lines in sync via a loudspeaker. [7] :49 Other roles include Robert Hooks as Admiral Morrow, the commander of Starfleet; James B. Sikking as Captain Styles, the commanding officer of the Excelsior; Miguel Ferrer as the Excelsior's First Officer; and Phillip R. Allen as Captain J.T. Esteban, the captain of the ill-fated Grissom. John Larroquette plays Maltz, a member of Kruge's bridge crew whom Nimoy describes as "the thoughtful Klingon". [13] Catherine Shirriff plays Valkris, Kruge's doomed lover. Grace Lee Whitney, who played Janice Rand in the original Star Trek series, made a cameo appearance (wearing a wig) as "Woman in Cafeteria". Scott McGinnis plays a young man whom Uhura forces into a closet at gunpoint. [16] Production [ edit ] Development [ edit ] The Undiscovered Country 's Cold War allegory and references to literary history were recognized among researchers and cultural historians. Scholars have noted that it is the Klingons, not the humans, who quote William Shakespeare; Gorkon claims at one point in the film that "You have not experienced Shakespeare until you have read him in the original Klingon." [37] In reality, the reverse—translating Shakespeare into Klingon—proved problematic because Marc Okrand had not created a verb for " to be" when he developed the language. [17] Shakespeare scholar Paul A. Cantor argues that this association is appropriate—the warlike Klingons find their literary matches in the characters Othello, Mark Antony, and Macbeth—but that it reinforces a claim that the end of the Cold War means the end of heroic literature such as Shakespeare's. [38] :36 According to Kay Smith, the use of Shakespeare has meaning in itself and also derives new meaning (underscoring cultural politics in the film) by its rearticulation in a new form. [39] Meyer said the idea for having the Klingons claim Shakespeare as their own was based on Nazi Germany's attempt to claim the Bard as German before World War II. [17]Created by Robert J. Harrower, Vince Lauria and produced by Two Sober Dwarves Productions , [81] Endless Viglance: A Star Trek Fan Production debuted on SoundCloud in early 2020. Commander Mitchell Quinn takes the center chair of the USS Vigilance NCC-75635, a defiant class starship attached to CURE station deep within the Courtyard, an area of space between the Klingons, Romulans, and the Federation, as all three powers begin to pave the way for galactic peace.

According to scholar Larry Kreitzer, The Undiscovered Country has more references to Shakespeare than any other Star Trek work until at least 1996. [40] :7 The title itself alludes to Hamlet, Act III, Scene 1, the famous "To be, or not to be" soliloquy. [41] Meyer had originally intended The Wrath of Khan to be called The Undiscovered Country. [17] Whereas the undiscovered country referred to in Hamlet (and its intended meaning in The Wrath of Khan) is death, Star Trek VI 's use of the phrase refers to a future where Klingons and humans coexist in peace.
