I, being a Star Trek fan, went to the Movies with great enthusiasm, and just in case I readied myself for disappointment, but luckily, I was in n-way disappointed. The Special effects of this ,movie are stunning, however, there was a point where you may or may not notice that the effects are too “special� by that I means if you look closely enough, you will be able to see some of the things digitally inserted/altered. Also there were lots of cool explosions, while there may have been a little less, I thought they were awesome. Also I liked how the movie gives an introduction, or prologue, into the whole Star Trek saga, and explains things like “where did McCoy (doctor of the enterprise) get the nickname “bones�� and how did he become doctor anyway. One discrepancy that I noticed was that the technology seen on this enterprise, and the general layout of the ship seemed to be different to such a point where it would be easily notice, if you had seen the original series. As for the characters, Spock didn’t seem to Spock-ish, even though he is supposed to be new to this business, and has never run the enterprise before. But generally all of the characters are the same; Scotty, Uhura, Kirk, etc. while they are played by different people, Also the sound in this movie was very well made, and the music fitted the story, and what was going on well
BOTTOM LINE: IF YOU’RE A TREKKIE, BUY IT, IF YOUR NOT A TREKIE, THAN RENT IT
