I liked it okay.

[spoiler]I really liked Nero...but I've always been a fan of crazy leaders. Old Spock was kind of a drag, but I'm glad they put him in there and explained the whole thing as an alternate universe rather than just making a remake and pretending everything else never happened.

I was pretty disappointed there was no Klingons. I liked the redshirt biting the dust. I thought the giant aliens chasing kirk on the ice planet was a bit much, though fun to watch. Uhura was sofa king hot. The green girl just didn't look right. I dunno if it was bad makeup or what. Something looked wrong tho.[/spoiler]

I took my mother to see it for mothers' day along with dinner, she like the original when she was younger and we watched NextGen together when I was a kid. I thought it was very entertaining, and the alternate timeline thing helped to explain away in the incongruous parts. I would have liked a little more dialogue between Kirk, Spock and Bones like they always had in the old days, or between Kirk and Nero, as Kirk would often have more of a dialogue with the villian about something pseudo-philosophical. The engine room was odd, with all those pipes, and I don't remember any random shots of people walking through corridors when the red alert went off (every time there was a red alert in the original there was some random shot of people walking around with the alarm going off).
I have always like Star Trek, and I loved what Leonard Nimoy said on SNL, that if you are some sort of Trekkie that is going to pick the movie apart then you suck.

Just a side note, best song by a former Star Trek cast member?

You decide!

I'm the only remotely nerdy guy in my group of friends, but they all wanted to go see it before I even brought it up. Turns out a good deal of them had secretly been trekkies.

The movie was absolutely amazing in my opinion. My mom is a huge trekkie but only for the original show. I grew up on it and no matter how corny it seems now, I will always love it. If you haven't seen it yet go watch it now.



This clip represents everything amazing about the show.

imagine yourself as a T-rex in a room full of T-ball poles and large soapy bubbles. Your stubby arms would render the pleasure-power of this room woefully out of reach.
