Wonderful character development!

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Fans of sci-fi movies in general will enjoy this movie, even with no prior knowledge of the history of Star Trek. Unfortunately IMDb has to allow reviews from everyone including the pathetic people who believe NOTHING can be as entertaining as the "original" with it's cheesy so called special effects. If those keyboard warriors hate the remakes so much, then why aren't THEY the ones making them? Oh wait, it's because they lack the talent and vision!People, if you haven't seen this movie, take the time to do so! Do you honestly think the original Spok would've wanted to be in this movie if it didn't have his seal of approval?

An original "Trekkie" I loved it. Perfect casting great adventure AND Gene Roddenberry is NOT rolling in his grave.

They nailed it with this reboot. Chris Pine is the perfect Kirk - brash and cocky, he reminds us of the young Shatner while making the role his own. All told, this is the Trek we want and deserve.

Movie Review: "Star Trek" (2009)Bringing together a remarkable new crew for science-fiction splendors to go inferior of this high-end Hollywood spectacle directed by J.J. Abrams, who brings endless passion to the subject matter he grew up with, when young soon-to-be Star-Fleet-cpatain James Tiberius Kirk, with total pleasures performed by actor Chris Pine, who further gets alongside with perfectly-cast young Mr. Spock, given face by Zachary Quint.
