So I finally saw a movie opening weekend-ish. Here are my random thoughts: George Kirk is much greater than James Kirk; Ben was right, Karl Urban is the man; Pegg, not enough screentime; Spock(s), tremendously awesome; Bana, not menacing enough; BabyKirk, sucks; BabySpock, however, I WANT ONE; Fight scenes, blah.
Overall, I’d give it 4 stars, which is at least one full star (trek…ha!) more than I had anticipated.
Mood:
Pleased


And George was hotter than James
I liked that Nero was kinda blah. He wasn’t a great mastermind, just got lucky and fell through a time warp.
I do have one gripe though – the Vulcans are more advanced than Humans so why didn’t they have a few spare ships with guns laying around to shoot the drill laser thing? Only the Federation ships were blown up in orbit. Oh well, I still loved it.
Hey Jenn. I really enjoyed it. I’ve never been a fan of Star Trek and JJ made me one!
