Kruges Death You know, for fans of the Star Trek films, I'd argue that on top of this being a very satisfying villain death in movie history, it's arguable the best villain death of the Trek feature films. How can one top watching Captain Kirk kick in a Klingon commander's face, in unison as he exclaims "I, have had, enough of you!" Seriously, does it get any better than that? This moment also reminded me that due to the budget limitations in the previous film, Wrath of Khan, we didn't get to see Khan necessarily go out in a blaze of glory like we see here, along with Kirk getting to face him head on, in person. Christopher Lloyd did such an incredible job playing the cocky, and relentless Klingon commander, so by the time Kirk boots him off the Genesis cliff, especially after Kirk's son was killed as a result of Kruge's villainous ways, the entire audience is ready for it. In the end, this was one heck of a demise for a villain on the silver screen...
