Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Star Trek II:
The Wrath of Khan is a 1982 American science fiction film directed by Nicholas Meyer and based on the television series .
It is the second film in the "Star Trek" film series, and is a sequel to  (1979).
The plot features Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner) and the crew of the starship USS "Enterprise" facing off against the genetically engineered tyrant Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalbán), a character who first appeared in the 1967 "Star Trek" episode "Space Seed".
When Khan escapes from a 15-year exile to exact revenge on Kirk, the crew of the "Enterprise" must stop him from acquiring a powerful terraforming device named Genesis.
The film is the beginning of a story arc that continues with the film  (1984) and concludes with the film  (1986).
After the lackluster critical response to the first film, series creator Gene Roddenberry was forced out of the sequel's production.
Executive producer Harve Bennett wrote the film's original outline, which Jack B. Sowards developed into a full script.
Meyer completed its final script in twelve days, without accepting a writing credit.
Meyer's approach evoked the swashbuckling atmosphere of the original series, a theme reinforced by James Horner's musical score.
Leonard Nimoy had not intended to have a role in the sequel, but was enticed back on the promise that his character would be given a dramatic death scene.
Negative test audience reaction to Spock's death led to significant revisions of the ending over Meyer's objections.
The production team used various cost-cutting techniques to keep within budget, including utilizing miniature models from past projects and reusing sets, effects footage, and costumes from the first film.
Among the film's technical achievements is being the first feature film to contain a sequence created entirely with computer graphics.
"The Wrath of Khan" was released in North America on June 4, 1982 by Paramount Pictures.
It was a box office success, earning (equivalent to about $M in) worldwide and setting a world record for its first-day box office gross.
Critical reaction to the film was positive; reviewers highlighted Khan's character, the film's pacing, and the character interactions as strong elements.
Negative reactions focused on weak special effects and some of the acting.
"The Wrath of Khan" is considered by many to be the best film in the "Star Trek" series, and is often credited with renewing substantial interest in the franchise.
