This film reminds us how fun & cool the original crew really were!

Rating: 8/10 (9 May 2009)

Even though this new Star Trek movie is a prequel; its an updated look into its universe as it also pays a lot of respect to the original television series and its characters. You'll recognize a lot of the famous quotes and mannerisms from the famous crew. Some of the events in the film may even seem familiar, as they are mentioned in the original series and its earlier movies.
The problem that I did have with this film is that it deals with some of its characters that are not in the same time-line, which means that certain Star Trek history has been altered. In other words, there are now continuity errors that involves with the original series and movies. I felt that it was just an excuse to gather all the original crew together for this particular film and it gives the filmmakers the freedom to alter the Star Trek history for their future sequels.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable Star Trek film that reminds us how fun & cool the original crew really were. This is the movie that will regenerate the popularity of Star Trek again for the 21st Century.
