star trek back with a bang

Rating: 9/10 (27 April 2009)

it was fast at least warp 9, apart from over use of the shaky cam , this was great fun and perfectly pitched to bring the franchise back. a wonderfully chosen cast to play all our beloved characters, a smart and funny script. my only complaint was it could have had a few more quieter moments. even though some of the replacements may not have had a strong physical bearing , the spirit of the characters was most certainly there. karl urban as mccoy was spot on and anton yelchin although much younger makes a great chekov. quinto is uncanny as spock. and pine makes a more handsome kirk, which i am sure will satisfy all the ladies. keeping true with the exterior of the enterprise and spicing up the interior. i am pretty certain that all lifelong trekkies will be pleased and that the film will bring in new younger audiences, so far the film of the year
