Accepted by even non-Star Trek fans

Rating: 10/10 (12 September 2012)

Possibly like any other long time Star Trek fan I couldn't help be skeptical and have my doubts. Only after having seen it I came away totally impressed. For once J.J. Abrams did to Star Trek what Burton did for Batman. The only thing I found difficult to get use to, even though it makes sense in an altered time-line, is the different look of the Enterprise. It looked like it not only had plastic surgery alteration but got bloated in some sections. I didn't care for Zachary Quinto as Spock when I saw how he didn't seem to properly regard Leonard Nimoy (Spock Prime) with due respect, as Chris Pine did so with William Shatner. He just didn't seem Spockian at all. I liked the rest of the cast members but had trouble recognizing Checkov and Scott. When it came to Nero yelling out, it seemed like they should of subtitled the movie 'The enemy whines like a baby again (for the 3rd time).' Anotherthing that bothered me is how Bruce Greenwood didn't look anything like the Pike we knew, even though he's a undoubtedly very good actor. Even if you're not a fan of Star Trek you will like this movie!
