I thought the movie was GREAT!!!

Imo the best of all the Star Trek movies. I've surrendered to the fact that it is a reboot and that CGI now going to be the norm, ok. But that aside I was amazed at how they weaved the story and how the pieces fit. This is not "Casablanca" or "Seven Samurai" so I wasn't looking for any Oscar performances but given that it is a reboot I liked how the players make this movie work. Perfect no, satisfying yes. Some thoughts; to really enjoy the movie you've got to know Star Trek (basically the original TV series and the "original series" movies#. Abrams has taken some liberties with some traditional characters. We'll have to live with that. The pace as mentioned before is breakneck but it works for me. I liked it and based on the applause the packed theater gave it at the end #a first for me with a Star Trek movie and I've seen them all) I'd say they like it too.

PS: see this film at an Imax 3d theater if you can, you won't be disappointed.
