These are the voyages of the starship ENTERPRISE

Rating: Null/10 (26 May 2009)

When I first saw Star Trek the series I became a fan this was back in 1973 or so. Then in 1979 they made the first ever star trek the motion picture a little confusing to my nine year old brain but it was entertaining it had Kirk Spock Mccoy and the rest and I loved it and all the other Trek films that followed. Then came Star Trek GENERATIONS. They killed off Captain James T. Kirk in that one and some of the magic died for me at least. The next generation films while good and enjoyable were forgotten after leaving the theater. Then Came Star Trek 2009 a massive reboot or a incredible revamping of the original series. I saw it and loved it . It brought back the magic of the original for me yes their are differences Spock and Uhura dating Vulcan meeting it's fate and James T.Kirk aboard the Enterprise but not as a captain not even as a crewman. JJ Abrams takes the Trek story and runs in different directions with it and has fun making this film and it shows. The Cast has fun and it shows this film has a heart and it has the imagination to create a newer beginning for a newer Trek generation this is not your father's Star Trek it's Yours make of that what you will. Chris Pine creates a rebel James T. Kirk at war with the universe and trying to prove himself. Spock is the half breed trying to overcompansate for the weaker human blood in his DNA makeup until he realizes That it makes all the difference and it makes him Better. Mccoy is the Country Docter caught up in Kirk's Whirlwind life and becomes his best friend and later on Spock's best friend as well. Mccoy sees things from a different perspective and is able to comment on it. This movie has so much going for it so much Action so much character development so much comedy and again so much imagination in telling a complicated story But not making it overly complicated that the audience can follow along. in my theater the audience gave this film a standing ovation. This movie gives us a new course to set on and a universe of newer stories to tell. This movie needs to be seen and once you see it you'll understand why a reboot was needed and why it saved Star Trek.
