I haven't watched this for some time, and I can't find my copy anywhere, so this review is from memory only.

I'm a massive Star Trek TOS fan and so I was very excited to be able to get my hands on what is essentially a new episode!

Yes there are a few small bones I could pick (such as Hedford in the shuttle from Metamorphosis), but the editor did an exceptional job selecting and weaving together various visual and audio moments from the original series, and the plot really works. I especially liked the end-of-act when Kirk talks of destroying the planet, using footage from Operation: Annihilate in the lab, but with different dialogue.

I can't comment on the non-Trek footage as I haven't seen the original. Whilst it's clearly made in a different era, it does blend nicely. The planet from Trek's 'Arena' does resemble the non-Trek planet.

All-in-all, a lovely little edit. Yes, as others have said, I'd love to see a TOS-R version, but equally a new edit blending something else with TOS!

Please do more!

I have three minor gripes. Repeated shots, costume/prop discontinuity, edge cropping.

And that’s all I’ll say for the negative, because none of that really matters. The edit is just flat-out fun, and you really just have to let go and enjoy it. I knew I would when Mollo used the one of my favorite little moments from TOS…Kirk’s sore back.

So what are you waiting for? Download and have a breezy half hour with the Trek episode you never knew existed. Don’t wait as long as I did.
