I just saw it and was very happy to have paid theater prices. I may actually see it again before it goes to DVD.

I got chills when Kirk met Dr. McCoy for the first time.

Uhura was a babe, but I didn't really care for the love interest thing (not going to spoil it for those that haven't seen it).

I was impressed overall and I think the actors pulled it off. Bones was especially dead on true to the original Deforest Kelley character. Chekov might have been a little overdone, but it wasn't a distraction.
Asker's Rating:
• Thanks so much for the great feedback everybody! I always wonder what other people think when going to a movie because there are so many other people there and everyone sees it differently.

By the way, I answered a shopping question just now on cool t-shirts, and usually when you go to major movie you can buy t-shirts, and they are either sold out, or they cost too much. Well, I came across what look like quality official t-shirts for the newest Star Trek movie at one third off! I picked out some of the nicest and posted images here, they look really cool, they are at amazon.com

I give it a big... meh...

Rebooting Trek is silly. It's a GREAT show and Gene Roddenberry didn't create it as an action show. It was a space drama. He was able to talk about the current issues in a way that was really innovative. This movie did NONE of that.

I loved the acting... GREAT performances all around (Scotty was a bit over the top for me, but, that made it a little less serious all around and Eric Bana (Nero) was excellent). Zachary Quinto was a great Spock and hit the mark with the inner conflict flawlessly. I loved watching Pine turn into Shatner... if you catch it, he does a PERFECT Shatner at the very end.

The story was... lame in my opinion. The effect were reasonable... Engineering looks like engineering SHOULD.

I think I might have to watch it again just to make sure it was mediocre.

Best Trek movie: WoK
Best Trek series: TNG

Short answer here because I am tired. lol

I saw this tonight and LOVED IT! So did my father and brother. It is really a great film, even if you are not a Trekkie. See this film on the big screen. Don't wait for blu-ray or dvd. See it now.
