Star Trek *****

Let's start this one with some background...
When I was a kid (no cable, one TV), I was forced to watch all of the old 'Star Trek''s... not once but over and over. One brother in particular was totally obsessed with the show! (You know who you are...) As a result I had to be a fan.

So I went into the new movie, 'Star Trek', looking forward mainly to Simon Pegg as Scottie. Otherwise, I went in with a critical eye. To say I was impressed is a HUGE understatement!!! They did an awesome job!!! It was writtten soo well... soo in line with the original series!! But here, we get to see our contemporary special effects, not models!!! Cool!!!

The movie basically takes us through what happened leading up to the series. So, you guessed it, it set us up for as many sequels as they can do!! I can't wait for the battles to come! The potential is almost endless!!!

The cast was spectacular! We don't even meet Scottie until close to the end... Pegg was awesome, but so was everyone else! Harold guy from the 'Harold and Kumar' movies plays Sulu... (delighted me!) Entire cast did great jobs!!

And the entire movie was a great job! It's not often that I have NO criticisms, but here it is! For anyone who is even vaguelly a 'Star Trek' fan, this is a MUST SEE!!!
And I can't wait for what's to come!!!
Watch it!!
It's still at theaters, but I'll get you the link as soon as it's released on DVD!!!
