Flawed, but still pretty damn good

Rating: 1/10 (3 October 2009)

7.7 / 10
First I'd like to say that despite my 1/10 vote (to bring it down from top 250, doesn't belong there in my opinion) I give this movie a 7.7 out of 10. I pick this number randomly, not only because I am new to reviewing films on IMDb and it is really hard for me to pick a number out of 10, but also because it was pretty god damn good but definitely not perfect (mountains are crumbling, but people are walking/running without impediment!). So, based on films in the top 250 and their 8+ out of 10, I'll go with a 7.7.
This movie had a few flaws, ones that I commented on and elicited laughter from my fellow men and women. BUT it was very entertaining. I was more of a Star Wars than Star Trek kinda guy, and never really experienced the original series (although I have seen all of the films), but I did very much enjoy the Next Generation episodes I used to watch as well as Deep Space 9 and all of the movies. With that said, if the prequels to Star Wars had been this good (I have to admit I did enjoy Revenge of the Sith a lot), this might (might) have been #1 of 250 after opening instead of whatever it is currently at. Then again, who am I to say that Star Wars is more popular than Star Trek.
In any case, I really enjoyed this film and think it is worth a look whether you are a film buff, Star Trek buff, or just have 10+ dollars burning a hole in your pocket for 2 hours of enjoyment. There is no reason not to watch this movie unless you have something against good movies or something/someone involved with this one.
7.7 / 10
