Wife and I liked it (we have seen it in move when it was released few years ago)... it was deliberately different from the past and "enabled" new future for the franchise...

Status: offline 		It was a fun movie, but I'm certain a lot of trekkie purists were cheesed off by the amount of changes made with this "reboot", as well as with all the convoluted time-traveling nonsense in the story. The interior of the Enterprise's engineering spaces resembled the inside of Costco store.

Zachary Quinto's performance of Spock was very good (as well as that of his makeup artist). Sorry, but Chekhov sucked.

As I said, a fun movie, but I wish it was more sophisticated and "real" than it was.

Wonderful special effects. Lousy writing. Acting was so-so. Except Karl Urban. He out MCoyed Mcoy!.

Status: offline 		I liked Chris Pine in Unstoppable. I am a railroad buff and enjoyed that movie. In this new Star Trek Kirk was too flippant. He would have been thrown out of the academy the way he won Kobayashi Maru scenario. I imagine Kirk in the original taking the scenario very seriously even though he re-programmed The scene was too flippant.

In the original Star Trek, Kirk was the youngest commander of a Constitution class star ship at 32 years old. In this Star Trek at the end of the movie they give someone who just got out of the academy command of this vessel. I don't buy it. I agree with Steve there was way too much time travel. I did like most of the special effects. I also agree with Treetop that the engineering spaces were not very good.

I also liked Ben Cross as Sarek.
