Into Darkness

Rating: Null/10 (21 May 2013)

After watching this movie and in 3d, its was well worth it, loved the story and bringing in another original character was done with flare and tact, he played his part well, and gave some foundation to the original story.
The action was great, and not a lot of time where you were bored watching this movie.
I have watched all the original series, including the movies right through, and into the next generation and so on, and have found that this movie held true.
After reading a review about the bra scene with Alice Eve I found this to pathetic, complaining about her being in her underwear and that it made no sense, Kirk always got his shirt off in the series always that ladies man, so why not have something similar in the movie.
One thing I am disappointed about the Chris Pike, they way his life played out was not true to the series, in the first season ep 1 where Chris was captured on that world to be a zoo exhibit and then escaped, he then handed the captains chair over to Kirk in the following ep, and later on in the series, Chris was in a wheel/hover chair, unable to move, grown old and wasn't able to speak, and spock takes him back to that planet, where he is transformed back to youth (illusion) and lives happily with that girl he fell in love with.
I felt that the movie didn't continue on this thread and changed this outcome, it would have been nice to stick closer to this than with the way they did in the movie.
Saying this, the movie was certainly not let down by this, a great movie and cant wait to be able to own it, looking forward to having the whole collection of the star treks.
The movie also had the many connections to the original series,and is funny if you know the original series and are able to make those connections.
My son was surprised that we were understanding the movie more that others that didn't know the connections, so now he is into watching the old series before watching the movie, we felt because of this we got more out of the movie, so if you can, you should view the series before the movies.
My hope is that they will make more movies and even further the series on TV if possible.
I would recommend you all to go and see this movie, certainly worth it.
