Not a fan of Star Trek.

Rating: 7/10 (9 May 2009)

I have not even watch any of the Star Trek movies, not the 2003 movie. But it is J.J Abrams that makes me interested in the reboot/remake. His previous movie, Mission Impossible 3, is good and is the best of the trilogy. His latest effort, Star Trek, is not bad either. There is drama, there is fast-paced action and there is amazing special effects. J.J Abrams is famous for producing TV series, Lost, and the shaky Cloverfield.
The story: The origin of Star Trek. It reaches out to everyone whether fan or not. Reboots/remakes are usually different from the original, this is something people need to accept while watching them in order to enjoy or like them. There are many successful reboots like Batman, Hulk and now Star Trek. J.J Abrams makes movies that are not too long or not too short. They usually clock around 2 hours, not more or not less. That is why, his movies are entertaining. His movies do not make you feel that they are dragged or being cut short. Now the story goes at a fast pace. Especially for those who are watching Star Trek for the first time. There is enough suspense and when it comes to action, it is purely intensity. The action scenes are breath-taking, fast-paced and are moving in a frenetic way. The music is epic too.
Overall: Yeah, I don't know whether it is a good reboot but it is definitely a good adventure movie and worth the watch. Those interested in the origin of the Star Trek should catch. J.J Abrams' fans should catch this too. Star Trek's fans will catch this one. If there is a sequel, it should be up in my must-watch movies.
