50 Years of Star Trek

I tried to watch this. I really did. I made it about halfway until I couldn't take it any longer. The background music was actually the foreground music. The music was overpowering the people speaking. The sound editor of this movie should be immediately fired.

I am a huge trekkie, and I have found watching this documentary extremely strenuous. I don't know who was in charge of the music mixing and editing, but I do not thank them. Not only the same themes are endlessly repeated but because they are short, there is a feeling of music brain washing in the repetition. And they are soooo loud ! Really hard to make out what the participants are saying sometimes. Painful ! That said, the doc is very interesting, though we already saw and heard some of the things on it in previous docs. Always a delightful journey down memory lane to see all the elements that remind us of how and why we loved Star Trek. Nothing really new but a sweet bit of nostalgia. Live long and prosper. F. ps: I would have rated it better if the music hadn't been so annoying.

A fascinating retrospective on Star Trek. Interesting interviews, some never before revealed facts, but oh god, the music. Every second of the nearly 90 minute runtime has this god awful, repeating every 30 seconds soundtrack. On top of this, they couldn't get the rights to the original music for any of the Star Trek series so they tried to make it sound as similar as they could, so it all comes off as sounding wrong. If you have the time, read the books by Gross and Altman instead. Way more in-depth, honest, and you can listen to better music.

I found this a great watch but the background music was SO So loud it really turned me off and you couldn't hear the people talking in some parts

Drove me crazy with the overly loud music played during the interviews.
