J.J. Abrams brings his sure hand to the Star Trek franchise, resulting in a rejuvenated and exciting film that plays homages to the series, while blazing new trails. The cast (as a young Enterprise crew) is fantastic and, true to Abrams-form, three-dimensional, never taking back seat to the action sequences. Avoids the dragginess of previous Star Trek sequels and is a promising beginning to a new franchise. |

While the direction is uneven, the performances really surpass the standard expectations for sci-fi blockbusters. Anton Yelchin as Siberian adolescent Pavel Chekov is particularly outstanding. |

Simply Exhilarating |
|
One word: Awesome. I can't believe I loved this movie so much. I've never seen a Star Trek episode in my life, and I had never seen a Star Trek movie. I barely knew who Spock was. And yet, I found Star Trek to be a perfectly satisfying and exhilarating experience.
Star Trek is the story of James T. Kirk and Spock, two seemingly unconnected beings, that find their stories intertwined when both find themselves aboard the USS Enterprise in order to battle the story's villain, Nero, who threatens to destroy many plants in a dramatic act of vengeance.
There's so much that works in this movie, it's hard to know where to start. The action scenes are always fun. Even suspenseful at times, Star Trek boasts a perfect blend of space flights and individual combat. But the key here is that Star ... |

"Star Trek" by Yojimbo |
|
The classic 60s TV series gets a big budget re-boot and sees the original crew of the starship Enterprise come together for the first time. I was actually looking forward to this film as I grew up with Shatner and co and thought the time was right, especially considering the success of the BBCs recent re-boot of the British equivalent, Doctor Who. In fact a few years previously, Doctor Who went through a similar process starring Paul McGann, but this project was in retrospect a total misfire; although McGann made a perfectly adequate Doctor, the whole approach was wrong. Instead of trying to capture the essence of the show, it uneasily combined a load of hardcore fan-pleasing yet irrelevant continuity and dumbed down kiddie-pleasing action and special effects and it just didn't work. Star... |

A Reboot Worth Seeing |
|
Captain’s log: Star date 62850.5. The Federation has returned to the big screen yet again to the amazement of all but the most hardcore Star Trek fans. This current course has taken us well beyond the known limits of any franchise or character in cinema history. The latest submission, simply titled ‘Star Trek’, is nothing short of a reinvention of the vehicle originally envisioned by Gene Rodenberry. Being the eleventh feature-length film based on that original TV series; you’d think that all of the possible story lines had been exhausted. The last offering in 2002, ‘Nemesis’, did just over $43 million at the box office (American receipts) – lowest of all the preceding Trek films; a strong indicator that most folks were Trekked-out. Yet Paramount saw fit to gamble one more time.
Thanks t... |

Saw the new trailer. I have to admit that it was good to hear the "red alert" noise that relays evidence of Star Trek. It looks like it could be decent. I am not a fan of child actors, so hopefully the children won't last long on the big screen. It too could be too much of a action flick and leave behind what made the series so incredible all of these years. They pushed the release date to next year some time. I hope that is a good thing. |
