Incredible

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2013)

I have been a Star Trek fan since the days I begged Mom and Dad to let me stay up and watch Kirk, Spock and crew and I saw most of TOS when it first aired. I've followed all the ST movies (we have them all) and have watched all the series.
I loved the 2009 film and just rewatched it the other night for the umpteenth with my 15 year old son to introduce him to the ST world. He came with us tonight as did hubby and our 19 year old daughter. That being said, this film kept me on the edge of my seat. OK - so I guessed a lot of the plot, but that's because I know ST and love it. Even so, this film was better than the first with a more realistic villain. Love the interplay of the characters in this alternate reality and their ability to bring in bits and pieces from the various series and movies.
Son and daughter both loved it as well. Of all the franchises out there, this remains my favorite and JJ Abrams has only given it new life and energy and I thank him for that.
