The best movie of the year so far.

Rating: 8/10 (12 May 2013)

The story line was great nothing really hard to follow and it keeps you attached through out the whole film with its interesting plot twists. The first scene doesn't really have much to do with the story but it was 007esque the way it has a really great action scene to bring you in and glue your eyes to the film. Just like Star Trek (2009)
Anyways character performances were rock solid Zachary Quinto made me understand why people loved Spock when I saw this film, he was amazing and was the strongest character, he showed emotion and strength, stole the show for me. Chris Pine was once again a great Kirk, witty, funny and serious when the going gets tough. Zoe Saldana was good as Uhura wish surprisingly good chemistry with Zachary Quinto. Kark Urban plays Bones to a T, he's perfect on point and on the ball with his thoughtful metaphors. John Cho, Alice Eve, Simon Pegg and Anton Yelchin are also great, very likable characters for a reason I can't even think of, they just hit it off with the crew brilliantly. Benedict Cumberbatch... personally I've seen nothing of him and didn't buy into his hype but he was brilliant in Into Darkness, sinister, complex, twisted, he really did live up to his post trailer hype of being evil and "better at everything" than Kirk. Brilliant villain nothing more to be said.
J.J. Abrams and his team did an amazing job with how the film looked and sounded. Special effects and sound don't get much better than this. Effects this great really make you feel as if you're in the action, 3D was well done (one of the few movies to get it right) giving it depth through the whole film and the first scene was stunning in 3D. The sound is spot of with how it actually makes you feel as if your on the Enterprise. The effects looking so good give the action some dynamic shots giving the action some substance.
Personally for me it's just as good as the Star Trek (2009) if not better, I can't really fault it. If it holds up as well after multiple viewings like Star Trek (2009) I'd probably say it's better because I enjoyed it a hell of a lot.
Go see this movie if you liked the last one because you won't be disappointed.
+ Good story + Great cast and characters + Amazing visuals and sound + Good 3D (deserves to be on its own considering how many movies failed using 3D) + Emotion shown through the film.
Man of Steel better bring its A game if it wants to be best movie of the year.
