From life long Trekkie ...

Rating: 10/10 (23 May 2009)

To start, see this movie, Trekkie or not.
I grew up with Star Trek, literally listening to it in the back ground as a 5 year old while my parents watched every episode. Then I watched every single show myself for years, over and over. I did not go as far as dressing up Trekkie however I would buy Star Trek relics. That said, Star Trek 2009 exceeded my expectations. The movie had all the thrills, tricks, plot lines, characters, and winner outcome of any Star Trek show, generation one or two - and went the extra few light years.
Young crew and new effects did its job, bringing the same great feelings of the 1960's show right up to the Now. As someone who loved and made part of my thinking the original show and characters - thumbs up on to the productive of this version.
Even though technically this is one of those retro shows, it does not in anyway feel retro. It is like the 1960's show leaped into today, picked up with the same great affection, with a lot more action, thrills, and all around great fun.
Now the plot does have one silliness to it, lets just say the plot falls into a black hole for a second, but picks back up quickly.
A great high! See it.
