May 12, 2009Quite easily the best "Trek" movie that outdoes the previous nine film in the series. The most riveting & fun adventure that you'll see twice.
-
October 24, 2009An eye-popping and mind-blowing knockout. An adreniline-fuelled and heart-pounding edge of your seat non-stop thrill-ride. A blast from the past thats also a real blast to watch. It's an amasing movie. It delivers in every way both as a prequel and re-boot. A strong story with su...( read more)

October 6, 2009Not just one of the best Star Trek movies I have seen, one of the BEST MOVIES I have seen. Great story, script and acting.

October 2, 2009Abrams has crafted the perfect reboot/sequel/re-imagining/whatever you want to call it. He treats the material with respect, but without losing the fun factor. He crams in comedy, action, emotion and references a plenty. I'm no Star Trek fan, I've only seen a couple of the Genera...( read more)

September 21, 2009I'm a bit of a Trekkie, not an obsessive mind, I just like a bit of Star Trek action from time to time. I watched the original and the next generation and have seen every film version in the cinema starting with Star Trek 3: The search for Spook. So I was always going to see this...( read more)

Quinto is the one person here who may leave teen-aged viewers more perplexed than puffed up; he somehow rebukes the movie's whole obsession with backstory and immaturity by seeming riper and wiser tha... full review

This is really the story of how the Enterprise crew meets, hammers out its differences and becomes a team, and the telling is pure bliss. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
It's also a pleasure to report that, not only have Gene Roddenberry's ideas stood up pretty well over the decades, so have Spock's ears. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
The Gene Roddenberry years, when stories might play with questions of science, ideals or philosophy, have been replaced by stories reduced to loud and colorful action. full review

Armond White, The New York Press
This Star Trek sells cuteness, sentimentality and explosive F/X as if Starship Troopers, Minority Report, Mission to Mars or even Blade Runner or The Matrix (all visionary standard-setters) never happ... full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
Trading on affections sustained over 40 years of popular culture, Star Trek does what a franchise reboot rarely does. It reminds us why we loved these characters in the first place. full review

November 1, 2009Exciting story and good drama to excite you that the spirit of Star Trek will never die off.

June 24, 2009extremely poor film. the plot complety destroys all other trek as the planet vulcan no longer exists! they appear to have little sense of scale and there use of physics isn't just fantastic its a load of rubish.
the special effects are fast and slightly painful on the eyes not to mention a radical departure from all previous trek.
where is the engine in the enginering section of the ship all it seems to be is a couple of large yellow metal tubes? and the scene in the water treatment was one of the worst and cheesyest bits of cinema in the history of humanity.
there are a few good acting performances but everytime there on the bridge it looks like a bunch of actors standing on a set not a starship.
most of the film is extremly predictable you see the first 2-3 seconds of a scene and pratically know how its going to end, that said the film itself seems to not know where its going and randomly jumps to a conclusion that isn't half as clever as its ment to be. -

June 2, 2009Should have been rated "G" for the "GARBAGE" it is. JJ Abrams deserves the "Tar & Feather Award"--then needs to be tarred and feathered--for how he spit all over the official history established in all the movies and the series (to say nothing of all the gaps filled in by the novel series). Even making an "alternate timeline" HAS to conform to plausible conclusions based on what's established. JJ...do us all a favor and stick with non-sci fi stuff and especially don't get your filthy paws on Star Trek ever again. Shame Roddenberry couldn't come out of his grave and strangle you, you loser.

March 27, 2009Im not a star trek fan - i just wanna see it coz i am totally in love with Zachary Quinto. <3

February 5, 2009I never was a fan of Star Trek, I don't know anything about it, but I am curious to see what J.J. Abrams would do with it. He did very well with "Lost" and "Cloverfield" wasn't so bad.
