Great Movie!

Rating: 10/10 (11 May 2009)

I'm not a trekkie, although like many I grew up on Star Trek TOS in the 70's. Since I first saw the trailer I've been counting down the days until I got to see the movie. This is a damn good movie, best I've seen this year, and to be honest I am looking forward to a sequel. Despite Chris Pine's reluctance to impersonate Bill Shatner's Kirk there are at least two scenes where he is pure "Shatner" Kirk... his cocky conduct during the Kobayshi Maru test, and the moment where Uhuru is asking him if he "knows what he is doing" in the captain's chair. Zach Quinto is just great as Spock, he really does encompass the role, and not only in looks. Can't wait until the DVD release! Enjoy!
