As we stand today, IMDB voters (both loyal fans AND casual watchers, both original viewers AND latter “discoverers” - though ALL with the benefit of hindsight!) of the original six “Star Trek” movies currently rate the films as follows…

1. Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Kahn = 7.7
2. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home = 7.3
3. Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country = 7.2
4. Star Trek III: The Search For Spock = 6.6
5. Star Trek: The Motion Picture = 6.4
6. Star Trek V: The Final Frontier = 5.4

As a “Star Trek” fan since a child-in-the-70s who has followed and loved the franchise for its ups and downs and all that came subsequent and since to-this-day, I have to say that considering everything (storyline, direction, performances, effects, score, entertainment-value, franchise-respect etc.)… I think this rating and placing is fairly accurate and actually fair!

THIS is exactly how I would place the films in my heart and preference - though collectively of course… I love them ALL!

I don't know about the actual scores, the IMDb rating system has never really made sense to me. But the order is pretty much what I'd expect. My personal preference would be: II, VI, IV, III, V, TMP.
