Saw it yesterday. A few random and brief bullets about it:
• KC Star review contained a huge spoiler that I wish I had not read;
• I like Chris Pine as Kirk and Zachery Quinto as Spock;
• Felt it was too long and could have used better editing;
• I like Benedict Cumberbatch as the villian;
• Found the relational development of the main characters to be lacking;
• No surprise that the movie mostly appeals to fans of the original series;
• Nice high-tech update to the bridge of the enterprise;
• The story line was a bit jerky and seemed to jump around a bit;
• Enjoyed the twists at the end of the movie;
• Was a nice re-imagining of an old TV show episode.
I mostly liked the movie and, on a scale of ten, give it ★★★★★★★.

Abrams is one of my favorite directors working right now and after seeing this movie, I can almost guarantee that he won't make a movie I won't like. Nice review Bob.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dan! I am looking forward to seeing what Abrams does with Star Wars.
DeleteI'm a fan of the original, next generation, and voyager... and I loved this movie even if it was too much action for a star trek movie :)
ReplyDeleteI have got to watch Voyager Rygel. It is the only series that I have not really seen much of. Enterprise with Scott Bacula was one of my favorites.
DeleteThanks for the review.
