This movie was awful

Rating: 3/10 (11 May 2009)

Okay... so... yet ANOTHER time travel story in Star Trek. So... Nero is the mad magician captain of a HUGE mining ship which has ungodly numbers of weapons and missiles used in the destruction of enemy... mines?
So... Nero, upon learning of the destruction of his planet, and the implementation of the "red matter" by Spock, AND he returns 25 years in time AND discovers that it IS twenty five years earlier, DOES NOTHING to warn the still existent Romulus and his wife and children of the Supernova that WILL occur in twenty five years? No. no. Better for the fearsome captain of the mining ship with a 30 mile spiked chain which holds a disk that does nothing to mine other than burn a hole in the ground, to only swear to kill Spock, and destroy Vulcan with the red matter that he could have been using to, 25 years in advance, destroy the supernova that is going to kill his wife, his people, and his planet at the time he is caught up in the black hole worm hole.
So... Spock is caught and marooned by Nero on a moon or planet that is within sight of Vulcan with all the weather gear to survive a winter, AND within walking distance of a Star Fleet outpost that he NEVER chooses to walk to UNTIL Kirk arrives on the same planet AND he makes no effort to warn Star Fleet or ANYONE of the cataclysmic supernova that will, IN TWENTY FIVE YEARS, RE-DESTROY the planet of Romulus AND makes no effort to tell himself that his RED MATTER (which he could go back an tell himself HOw to make correctly, and IN TIME) will be deliver too late, and that Romulus will be destroyed. and..
And, of course, for the ladies, we need for Spock's internal drama to be sexy. He needs to be controlled on the outside, yet (hand to forehead) conflicted from within. Sigh...
And, yet again, another warp core has to be jettisoned to save the world. You know, it seems to me that Star Fleet would figure out that Warp Cores are the most versatile and useful item in history and just design ships that carried SPARE warp cores around to use for defense, attack, or propulsion.
I'll type more description of the idiocy in this move later. I'm too cheesed right now.
