Great technology, good acting, plot full of clichés

Rating: 7/10 (1 November 2012)

The more the technology advances, the less attention is paid on human acting / relations etc, being replaced by explosions, bangs, flashes and other mishmash hindering contemplation. The Star Trek is another example of similar movies so popular within last decades. And all this mentioned above is "robed" into political correct and wider audience attracting elements and cast where all genders, races, ages, types etc are constantly visible - with their "nice" and comprehensive-to-all understanding of human issues.
As for acting, at least two supporting actors - Simon Pegg and Anton Yelchin - performed better and in more interesting way than most of stars, with the exception of Zachary Quinto as Spock. Chris Pine as Captain Kirk is not convincing... But as I am not a follower of Star Trek series over the years, I just watched the movie as another adventure one, guessing the end already. Thus, not impressive, but a quality killing time.
