Star Trek Options

[Aaron]

Really good movie. I can't call it 'great' until I see it more than once.

I'm fairly into Star Trek - seen all the movies, all of the TV series - but have never gone to conventions, dressed up as a Romulan or learned Klingon.

I think the casting was superb, all of the main characters were cast perfectly.

There were a few things in the movie that struck me, as a Star Trek fan, oddly, but it didn't take away from the movie.

I felt at first like the main villain was underused, more something to move the story along than anything else, but then I recognized that the main conflict in this movie is between Kirk and Spock, not Good Guys vs. Villain.

I'll be seeing it again this weekend.

Just saw it.... wow


what an unnessesary movie. Throw in special effects and unnessary bullshit (who's good at hand to hand combat? ... cuz though you have phasers and ample time to use them, we'll need to introduce a retarded sword fight). The story makes no sense (besides the kirk's timeline change at very start when enemy comes through, the rest of the story of creating the "alternate universe" for JJ to play in, could have been done in a more believable way). The romulans didn't look like romulans, and the bad guys were boring in general... even with a wannabe Spock/Khan yell. The reason for them being bad guys just didn't do it for me.

Characters were VERY well casted (chekov was only one i might change), and i loved the acting... but story line BLEW. Acting good, storyline on par with ... Nemesis maybe. Well at least now maybe they can get some good stories written for this awesome new cast (simon peg lolol) and I can enjoy other movies. Oh and the eating an apple... really?
