Very enjoyable, ignore the detractors

Rating: 9/10 (25 May 2013)

This will be short. The majority of the detractors of this movie are die hard Star Trek fans hoping for the JJ Abrams films to fail. They put up negatives like "This was not the vision of Roddenberry" or "This is not Star Trek" etc and mark it down to a 1 out of 10. This is a film of its time... and this is what we would expect in this day and age. We don't want to go to the cinema to witness what would normally be a normal Trek diplomatic mission. We want epic and that is what this is. We want great special effects and its here in bundles. It also has a great story line, which I might add, strays from the ST universe. But it is a good story and fits in well to the new universe that was created in the first of the Abrams movies. Go into the cinemas with an open mind and you will enjoy.
