Sci-fi action at its best

Rating: 10/10 (24 November 2009)

This movie features sci-fi action at its best! I'm perfectly fine with Trekkies' 'this-ain't-no-longer-our-beloved-Star-Trek'-weeping and wailing, because this is the sci-fi flick we have been waiting for. Does anyone remember the last movie that featured top notch space battles, sweet action scenes, adorable characters, illogical plots, and, to sum it up, more entertainment than you can stomach?
The plot(if it is worth mentioning): some angry Romulan captain, called Nero, ventures through time and space to capture Spock in the past, since he is convinced that the Vulcan ambassador is responsible for the destruction of his home planet. He seeks vengeance - the destruction of Vulcan - and aspires the harsh end of the Federation. Well, as fate wants it, young Kirk and his fellows get in his way, realizing that they're too late, and that the time-line they were supposed to be in has gone to hell - thanks to Nero, the black-hole traveling redneck.
This sounds a lot like the ordinary sci-fi plot, and it surely is, yet it was executed so tremendously excellent, from the CGI, the characters (especially Kirk and young Spock), and the action, as I have mentioned afore. It is, bluntly put, brilliant entertainment that will leave your sci-fi desires satisfied until Cameron's AVATAR makes its way to the big screen in December.
If you haven't done so already, watch STAR TREK!
