Star Trek (2009)

Very well executed

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Skip to bottom for TLDRWhilst i didn't think this was a horrible movie, quite the contrary it was a good film, but a horrible "Star Trek" film.Just like in the hobbit, they have to introduce some idiotic/illogical love story. The Hobbit and LOTR lore basically elves and dwarves hated each other and would never, ever of fallen in love. Elves were beautiful beings, whilst the dwarves were not. In the Hobbit they decide to have about 4 Dwarves and the rest are basically small humans. Purely to fit this stupid love story.Same in Star Trek, Spock is more human and guess what? He has a girlfriend.. PLEASE!!! In the classic original Star Trek, Spock was basically incapable of having a girlfriend and was still learning his human emotions well into what would be considered his 50's. Imo they completely ruined his beautiful character and everything that made him Spock. Like most modern remakes, they do not make them for the fans. Knowing that the fans will automatically go to see these movies when they come out. They direct the movie at everyone else. Your mainstream society of movie goers that will watch any mindless dribble as long as it has CGI and a bit of stupid humor.I thought the actors done a fantastic job considering the script. It's not their fault most of the characters were ruined, they played their parts very well.I probably won't watch these movies again. But as i have said many times before. Rating this movie 1 star just says that you are beyond salty. Yes, it's a bad Star Trek film but as a movie it is still worth higher than 1 star. Again all i see is 1/10 or 10/10. People either love or hate movies there seems to be very few in between.TLDR Logically, i have given this a 6 due to it being a decent "Action" film. Whilst also being a horrible Star Trek film. 100% aimed at your common movie lovers that will watch anything with a bit of CGI, action, illogical love stories and stupid humor. This has become the trademark of modern remakes. They have proven to make more money as they are aimed at everyone rather than the fans that made the original movies/series a hit. Same with books. They ruin books by changing them into stupid movies purely ignoring the fact that without the original fans. It would never of made it to the big screen in the first place.

I wasn't a huge fan of Star Trek growing up though I did watch some episodes of The Next Generation in the early 1990s. I also played the graphic adventure game entitled 25th Anniversary and won it. I'd only seen parts of the feature films and a little of Generations but this was the first Star Trek movie I enjoyed. Sure, it's a reboot but a fun reboot and it's one of my favorite remakes along with 1999's The Mummy. All-new cast and more background for Kirk and the rest of the gang, and they pulled it off splendidly. Because of this movie, I'm now a Star Trek fan though I'm not a huge fan but I will watch episodes of The Next Generation and as of now I've watched the first four feature films. My favorite sci-fi features now are Star Wars (my number one), Star Trek (which puts the "science" in science-fiction), StarGate (which mixes history and mythology with sci-fi), and finally StarCraft (Blizzard's major sci-fi game franchise). JJ Abrams, you did it!

They nailed it with this reboot. Chris Pine is the perfect Kirk - brash and cocky, he reminds us of the young Shatner while making the role his own. All told, this is the Trek we want and deserve.

Movie Review: "Star Trek" (2009)Bringing together a remarkable new crew for science-fiction splendors to go inferior of this high-end Hollywood spectacle directed by J.J. Abrams, who brings endless passion to the subject matter he grew up with, when young soon-to-be Star-Fleet-cpatain James Tiberius Kirk, with total pleasures performed by actor Chris Pine, who further gets alongside with perfectly-cast young Mr. Spock, given face by Zachary Quint. Tegether they embark on mission of rules bending, loss, struggle in non-stop action captured in Acadamy-Award-worthy cinematography by Dan Mindel and supportive as splendid production design by Scott Chamblliss in future-defining efforts to attract any entertainment-loving movie spectator to be amazed and just taking away at the movies.The Enterprise crew surrounding performing industry professionals as Karl Urban as Bones, Zoe Saldana as Uhura, Simon Pegg as Scotty and John Cho as Sulu complete power-striving, cinematic-fully-convicted directions by young Hollywood filmmakers on fire to deliver the best-possible 120-Minute-Event-Movie for legendary 1912-founded Industry Major Motion Picture Studio "Paramount", which in prime-time releasing May 2009 could have been unimaginable proud to grant a 150-Million-Dollar production budget to ultimate, undeniable as obvious successes with audiences around the world in highly-recommended revisits of a motion picture entertainment breathtakingly-executed with opening sequence featuring Chris Hemsworth and Eric Bana for the ages in "David vs. Goliath" space opera stand-off embeddded into a tear-dropping score theme composed by Michael Giacchino under utmost confidence with Hollywood company primus "Bad Robot" productions. © 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
