Boldly goes where all previous Star Trek films only wish they had gone

Rating: 10/10 (4 June 2009)

on a whim,i decided to see this latest film in the Star Trek Universe.i'm sure glad i did.this is one film that must be seen on the big screen to be fully appreciated.it's an origin story of sorts,a prequel(sort of) to the original Star trek TV series,and obviously all previous films.some things in the mythology have been a bit tweaked,but that's why it works.it's not the old tired formula.there were some good Trek films in the past,a few excellent and a few not so good.but this one blows them all out of the water.not only is the story good,but the acting is stellar.there are also some very funny moments here.and the action is first rate.for me,this is easily the best Star Trek film ever.if you can,i'd recommend seeing it while it's still in the theatre.10+++
