Star Trek (XI) was fairly awesome. It had some flaws which I’ll go into later but as a whole it was a great movie. Everyone can enjoy this movie from trek fans to people who haven’t seen or care about star trek. JJ Abrams has managed to create his own awesome spin on the franchise by creating an alternate time line.
Here’s some things I loved and disliked:
- Eric Bana was really wasted as Nero
- Shakey Hand Camera was used too often and was really noticable on the movie screen
- The guys who wrote Transformers also wrote this so there were a lot of awesome funny moments
- Simon Pegg was great as scotty and I’m sure he loved playing him
- Nero’s back story was a little stupid. Who’s going to sit around for 25 years with a full crew of crazies
- Shooting up Nero’s ship at the end was very much un-star fleet like
- The alien races weren’t so well done and they didn’t use any from any of the other franchises which is weird
