They nailed it

Rating: 10/10 (10 May 2009)

*** Note: Thousands have rated this movie, and it stands at an impressive 8.6 stars. However, just about every positive review of the movie has been hammered by No's. This means only one thing: A few petty little losers are going around down-rating everyone who liked the movie. What sad, sad little lives these pathetic people must lead. PS It must especially chaffe them that this movie is currently rated #94 on IMDb's toop 250, and will soon move into the top 40 or so in all time box office. LOL ***
I've seen a few comments on here from people who didn't like this as Star Trek.
Those people don't know or understand Star Trek ... at all.
Having watched and been an enthusiastic fan of Star Trek since I saw the very first "sneak preview" episode in 1966, this movie nails it.
The actors took great pains to make sure that fans of "TOS" felt at home with the new faces, although a couple of the new faces are so close it was scary (Spock and Bones to be sure).
Chris Pine grew into Kirk over the course of the movie the way Kirk very well might have grown into Kirk if this was real life instead of fiction.
Another complaint of the yo-yo's was plot holes. If you are an idiot or don't pay attention, then you might not understand the plot. If you are an intelligent person who listens to the dialog, you will understand the plot.
The entire theater in the afternoon showing I was in today broke into applause as soon as the closing credits started to roll. That doesn't happen much anymore. I'm not sure if I have personally been in a theater where that happened since Star Wars original run.
I'm not going to rehash the plot, and you shouldn't read any who do if you are planning to see the movie.
Suffice it to stay that this movie grabs you for a tense ride from the first scene and barely gives you a chance to catch your breath for two hours. I was exhausted at the end of it, and as a 43 year Star Trek fan, had my eyes water up a time or two, especially when the Alexander Courage theme broke out at the end and the Star Trek voice over began.
This is the first movie in many years I will go to see again in the theater, maybe more than once again. We're already anxiously awaiting the Blu-ray release!!! Go and enjoy. You won't get a chance to relax, and you'll love that.
Star Trek lite fans who don't get this, just shut up and go watch the TOS DVDs until you know enough to be allowed in.
