This is not a re-boot. it's a re-do

Rating: 1/10 (11 November 2017)

J.J. Abrams ruined Star Trek by creating this alternate universe (trek) and employing Legend,Leonard Nimoy to make the transition. making him recognize Kirk & scotty to ease us in, then make him responsible for the changes in the timeline. By destroying Vulcan, he single handedly wiped 40 years (our time) and 400 years of star trek history. Bad Move. Not only is it a terrible story-line, it has been terribly cast as well. Also kirks middle name is thrown about far too much considering it took 3 seasons & 6 movies for it to be revealed. (originals of course) in this film it seems like overkill. Warp drive somehow became 'Bullet Drive' as the ship now just booms & disappears, in doing that, he took the awe out of going to warp. Then we get to Starship Battles... He even went to great measures to spoil phaser & torpedo fire. the thing that made Trek different from Star Wars was the full laser contact fire, now the ships phasers look & sound like Blasters from SW. Abrams spoiled this film on so many levels it has successfully put me off watching Anything written or directed by him.
