Star Trek is BACK!!!! (NO SPOILERS HERE)

Rating: 10/10 (7 May 2009)

Being that I'm a Trekkie at heart, I had high expectations coming into this movie. And I can honestly say those expectations were BLOWN AWAY.
From beginning to end, this movie just kept me at the edge of my seat wanting more. It had the perfect mix of humor and seriousness, while still making itself approachable by both non-Trekkies and Trekkies alike. I have to say that was what pleased me most about the movie...the fact that it was so accessible to casual moviegoers and still catered to Trek fans (especially those of us so worried about maintaining "Star Trek canon"). Speaking of which, I have to say that the little plot twists here and there were excellent. And the characters (as portrayed by the new cast) were DEAD ON!!!
I applaud Mr. Abrams and the cast for making such a wonderful movie, and for reinvigorating the Star Trek franchise. I look forward to the sequels, and hope they ALL come back next time around.
