Star Trek
fucking great. awesome. sweet. loved it.
Seriously the most entertained I have been at the theater in ages. So much fun. It was an alternate time line but the time travel was well thought out and well explained. It stuck to canon. I had the best time because the whole theater was full of Trekkies (except for one girl who exclaimed too loudly on her way out that she had just wasted 2 hours being bored and it was all her bf's fault. I turned around and told her to stop being such a bitch. :D) People clapped whenever there was a catch phrase from the series, and especially when Leonard Nimoy showed up.
The sound effects were same or similar to the ones in the series, and the soundtrack was very similar to the original music. The opening dialog from the series "to boldly go etc." at the end was perfect.
The characters were all pretty great too. I thought they would screw up Kirk but they didn't. This new guy is no Shatner, but the way they wrote his dialog made him out to still be a badass who sleep with alien women. Spock was great but I thought he showed a bit too much emotion. Sulu wasn't really in it too much, but he had a pretty kick ass fight scene. Chekov was amazing! This kid had quite the accent but did great, and Bones had his speech patterns down pat. Then there's Scottie. Simon Pegg was sooo good.
I loved it so much. Go see it, Trekkie or not. You won't be bored.
