What Roddenberry started, J.J. Abrams finished!!

Rating: 10/10 (9 May 2009)

"Space... The final frontier...." An oldie but goodie has been brought back by "Fringe" creator, J.J. Abrams. "Star Trek" created by the genius himself, Gene Roddenberry(1921-91) gets a reprise after all the other movies and past TV shows(some of the were done after Roddenberry's death). This movie goes to the origins of the first adventure of USS ENTERPRISE. You got James Tiberius Kirk(Chris Pine), a cocky trouble-making with the taste for a thrill. After he was born, he gets some reprieve to join the Federation by a Captain Pike(Bruce Greenwood) who remembers George Kirk for his bravery against the Romulans. He meets Ulhura(Zoe Saldona) at a bar, gets a shot to be in the Federation following the brawl. On planet Vulcan, there's is Spock, who is a half-breed gets to do the same thing; join the Federation. Nero(Eric Bana), is a nutshell. Blaming Spock for the destruction of his planet, he destroys Vulcan for his troubles. Getting all the crew to battle him took lots of determination and a little bit of logic from The Future Spock(Leonard Nimoy) which helps prevent an uncertain future. Just not seeing this movie, is totally illogical. Plenty of plot enough energy to keep you on the edge of your seats. With a touch of humor "Star Trek" will time warp you to galaxies far away. What Roddenberry started, Abrams finished. I liked the interactions of Kirk and the green woman,also with Ulhura and Spock. That is mind-bending there. Live long and prosper- Spock 5 stars!!
