J.J. Abrams' 2009 feature film was billed as "not your father's emStar Trek/em," but your father will probably love it anyway. And what's not to love? It has enough action, emotional impact, humor, and sheer fun for any moviegoer, and Trekkers will enjoy plenty of insider references and a cast that seems ideally suited to portray the characters we know they'll become later. Both a prequel and a reboot, emStar Trek/em introduces us to James T. Kirk (Chris Pine of emThe Princess Diaries 2/em), a sharp but aimless young man who's prodded by a Starfleet captain, Christopher Pike (Bruce Greenwood), to enlist and make a difference. At the Academy, Kirk runs afoul of a Vulcan commander named Spock (Zachary Quinto of emHeroes/em), but their conflict has to take a back seat when Starfleet, including its new ship, the emEnterprise/em, has to answer an emergency call from Vulcan. What follows is a stirring tale of genocide and revenge launched by a Romulan (Eric Bana) with a particular interest in Spock, and we get to see the familiar crew come together, including McCoy (Karl Urban), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), Sulu (John Cho), Chekhov (Anton Yelchin), and Scottie (Simon Pegg).pThe action and visuals make for a spectacular Big-Screen Movie, though the plot by Abrams and his writers, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (who worked together on emTransformers/em and with Abrams on emAlias/em and emMission Impossible III/em), and his producers (fellow emLost/emies Damon Lindeloff and Bryan Burk) can be a bit of a mind-bender (no surprise there for emLost/em fans). Hardcore fans with a bone to pick may find faults, but resistance is futile when you can watch Kirk take on the emKobayashi Maru/em scenario or hear McCoy bark, "Damnit, man, I'm a doctor, not a physicist!" An appearance by Leonard Nimoy and hearing the late Majel Barrett Roddenberry as the voice of the computer simply sweeten the pot. Now comes the hard part: waiting for some sequels to this terrific prequel. em--David Horiuchi/em/p br /br / span class="h1"strongStills from emStar Trek /em(Click for larger image)/strong/span table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="4" width="100%" p/p p/p tbody tr align="center" valign="top" tdimg align="left" border="0" height="125" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/paramount/startrek/ST_1S.jpg" style="float: left; border: 0;" width="300" / br //td p/p tdimg align="left" border="0" height="125" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/paramount/startrek/ST_2S.jpg" style="float: left; border: 0;" width="300" / br //td tdimg align="left" border="0" height="125" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/paramount/startrek/ST_3S.jpg" style="float: left; border: 0;" width="300" / br //td p/p /tr tr align="center" valign="top" tdimg align="left" border="0" height="125" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/paramount/startrek/ST_4S.jpg" style="float: left; border: 0;" width="300" /br //td p/p tdimg align="left" border="0" height="125" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/paramount/startrek/ST_5S.jpg" style="float: left; border: 0;" width="300" /br //td tdimg align="left" border="0" height="125" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/paramount/startrek/ST_6S.jpg" style="float: left; border: 0;" width="300" /br //td br / p/p /tr tr align="center" valign="top" tdbr //td p/p tdbr //td tdbr //td /tr /tbody /table p/p

 Perhaps the Best Trek Movie November 22, 2009
Paul G. Bens, Jr. (Los Angeles, California)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Definitely one of the best "re-imaginings" of a past series of movies, Abrams got everything right in this movie. There is enough Trek Cannon there to satisfy fans of the originals and enough that is different and fresh and new to entertain non-Trek fans. The casting by April Webster is brilliant...Zachary Quinto as Spock is almost eerie and Karl Urban as Bones is brilliant and Chris Pine brings a freshness to Kirk. Throw in the utterly appealing Zoey Saldana, an interesting twist with Spock and the amazingly appealing John Cho, and you got a stellar cast.
br /
br /I was expecting very little from this movie and I walked away remembering why I had always liked the original Trek so very much. I can't wait to see where the series goes from here.
Great November 21, 2009

Just a quick comment. Whether you're a Trekkie or not--I'm not--your going to love this one.
br /Along with all the extras you actually get a well made special effects flick with quality actors, witty dialogue,
br /and a well rounded and fully satisfying storyline. It all comes together for the trekkie.
Good adventure November 21, 2009

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Simply put this is a retelling of a great story, with Nimoy thrown in to provide a tidbit of continuity for the Trekkies (which worked well IMHO). Not too much techie sci-fi with alot of nonsensical technobabble. Just enough to add a reasonable level of future technologies without getting into the details. When the transporter saves our heroes one minute but cannot do the same exact thing the next time its not important to know why. Not in the context of a 2 hour movie. This approach greatly helps. Good action... as all adventures should have. Good characters, albeit without alot of time for development because things have to move fast. Natural for a first movie. Perfect interplay between Kirk, Spock and McCoy. All the technical aspects of the bluray edition are first rate. I just wish I had a bigger TV for it.
br /
br /I guarantee that many of those who do not like the movie would instead think it was great if all the characters were different, not a prequel, but still the same exact story minus the time travel aspects. Also, like all prequels when it goes against what people have built up over the years what they think the various events should have been, or how they occurred, some take issue.
br /
br /But thats ok. So why say that? Because when all is said and done this is a good Star Trek adventure and a worthy addition to a collection... unlike any of the other summer blockbusters that came out in 2009. Just dont expect the sci-fi equivalent of Shakespeare.
