J.J. Abrams' 2009 feature film was billed as "not your father's Star Trek," but your father will probably love it anyway. And what's not to love? It has enough action, emotional impact, humor, and sheer fun for any moviegoer, and Trekkers will enjoy plenty of insider references and a cast that seems ideally suited to portray the characters we know they'll become later. Both a prequel and a reboot, Star Trek introduces us to James T. Kirk (Chris Pine of The Princess Diaries 2), a sharp but aimless young man who's prodded by a Starfleet captain, Christopher Pike (Bruce Greenwood), to enlist and make a difference. At the Academy, Kirk runs afoul of a Vulcan commander named Spock (Zachary Quinto of Heroes), but their conflict has to take a back seat when Starfleet, including its new ship, the Enterprise, has to answer an emergency call from Vulcan. What follows is a stirring tale of genocide and revenge launched by a Romulan (Eric Bana) with a particular interest in Spock, and we get to see the familiar crew come together, including McCoy (Karl Urban), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), Sulu (John Cho), Chekhov (Anton Yelchin), and Scottie (Simon Pegg).

The action and visuals make for a spectacular Big-Screen Movie, though the plot by Abrams and his writers, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (who worked together on Transformers and with Abrams on Alias and Mission Impossible III), and his producers (fellow Losties Damon Lindeloff and Bryan Burk) can be a bit of a mind-bender (no surprise there for Lost fans). Hardcore fans with a bone to pick may find faults, but resistance is futile when you can watch Kirk take on the Kobayashi Maru scenario or hear McCoy bark, "Damnit, man, I'm a doctor, not a physicist!" An appearance by Leonard Nimoy and hearing the late Majel Barrett Roddenberry as the voice of the computer simply sweeten the pot. Now comes the hard part: waiting for some sequels to this terrific prequel. --David Horiuchi

4 out of 5 stars Star Trek   March 20, 2010
Walt (Omaha, NE)
Many original Trekies don't like this movie but I did. I saw every TV episode and all of the Star Trek movies. This was by far and above the best of the movies. Special effects were great. I've seen it both in DVD and Blu-ray formats. It deserves Blu-ray.


2 out of 5 stars Cheesy   March 20, 2010
J. White (New York)
Sure do miss the originals. This starts out with loud noise, too much action and general overall chaos. By the time all this was over I was asking myself - and when do we get to the plot.

Not of the quality or character of the original. We didn't like it much.


2 out of 5 stars The glare generation   March 20, 2010
Dennis Morse (Chicago-ish)
The video and audio quality are great, which makes this lens flare/glare orgy completely unwatchable. If you can tolerate the over abundance of pointless and illogical lens flare/glare then you will be fine watching this movie. All bridge scenes are likely to send anyone even remotely susceptible to flashing lights a seizure.




5 out of 5 stars Great movie   March 19, 2010
A.K. Stein
I love this movie. I ordered it from closeoutvideo and they sent it to me in very good time. But the disc stalled during the movie and closeoutvideo gave me a refund immediately. What nice people.


3 out of 5 stars A good popcorn movie so long as you don't stop and think about it.   March 19, 2010
Jim Bernheimer (Virginia, USA)
The special effects are a strong point of the movie and they do their best to not let up on the action. I give this part a 5 star. Watching even the opening sequence of the battle with the USS Kelvin and seeing the startship unleash all that firepower was a plus. It definitely wasn't old series with a pair of phaser beams.

The acting gets a three star from me. I liked the "chip on his shoulder" Kirk. He was suitably brash. Spock alternated between being a wooden puppet and then a drama queen. It's like they tried to do too much with his character over the course of the movie. McCoy was a hoot, probably the most true to the original character. Sulu, Chekov, and Scotty were underutilized and mostly window dressing. Uhura was portrayed well.

The plot gets a whopping 2 stars. Along the lines of Independence Day and stories along the same line, you should just watch the movie and not try to think too much about it. A time traveling divergent reboot opens up a whole can of worms. It's easy to see why they chose the deleted scenes for deletion. They would have made the plot even
more difficult to stomach.

The screenwriters went out of their way to ensure that all the main characters were "special." Things like Chekov leaving the bridge to run down to the transporter room when there is an enemy ship right in front of them or the rapid promotion of Kirk, Spock, and everyone else from cadets to command staff. (I believe he had the con at that time.) I won't go into all the major plot spoilers and plot holes, I'm sure you could go to the 1 and 2 star reviews for that, but suffice to say there are many.

On the positive side, it is uptempo and doesn't stop the action so someone can monologue about the morality of thier predicament. The director just keeps the action rolling.

So, if you're looking for a roller coaster ride with lots of things blowing up and everyone jockeying to get in everyone else's face, you'll enjoy the movie. If you want a deep plot go elsewhere.
