Not for the die hard Trekkies

Rating: 5/10 (13 September 2013)

JJ Abrams knows how to deliver action, this movie is packed with it. I think he would have done such a better job with star trek if he would have not used original characters. Trying to replace the original cast was bad enough (with the exception of Carl Urban).....Then he committed the ultimate sin, how can you even attempt to cast anyone other then Ricardo Montalban as Khan. Abrams has chosen to go with this "altered universe" theme- you know, the one that does not include Kirks older brother Sam. He should tell his buddy Damon Lindelof to watch the original Star Trek. We know that Lindelof is good at copying other peoples work, He owes his writing career to Art Bell, George Noory and some of the guests that they have had on their radio show- Coast to Coast AM. All one has to do is watch Lost or Prometheus to make that deduction.
