A Star Trek Fan's Delight

Rating: 8/10 (17 May 2013)

I saw "Star Trek Into Darkness" , starring Chris Pine-This Means War , Star Trek-2009, Zachary Quinto-Heroes-t.v. , Star Trek-2009, Alice Eve-Men in Black 3, She's Out of My League, Peter Weller-Screamers, Robocop and Benedict Cumberbatch-The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey , War Horse.
This is the second in the series of the reboot of the classic sci-fi series Star Trek, by J.J. Abrams-Super 8, Star Trek-2009, Mission Impossible 3. Chris plays Kirk, who doesn't always play by the rules. Zachary is Spock, the unemotional logical thinking Vulcan. Peter is Admiral Marcus, in charge of Starfleet command and Alice is his daughter Carol, the newest member on the Enterprise. Benedict is the villain John Harrison, a former Starfleet cadet that has become a terrorist-You know how those disgruntled employees can get. After Benedict attacks Starfleet Headquarters, he escapes to a hidden Klingon planet, where Chris and crew pursue him and try not to start an interplanetary war with the Klingons. Along the way, there is a cameo of an original Star Trek actor, the birth of an alien species-familiar to fans of the t.v. series and the death of a major character. FYI: there is not a scene after the end credits. If you like the Star Trek universe, you should enjoy this one. It has all the necessary elements, including the humor and even some twists on it's own beloved history. It is being shown in regular 2D, 3D & IMAX 3D-that's the one I saw it in. It's rated "PG-13" for the intense action and violence and has a running time of 2 hours & 2 minutes. I really enjoyed it and I would buy it on Blu-Ray.
