My family hit the new Star Trek movie this past week and I have to give it two thumbs up. I really enjoyed it.
The great thing about the movie is that you don’t need to know anything about previous Star Trek movies to understand it, but there is a lot of fun things to see if you are a Trekkie, too. J.J. Abrams directs it, and I enjoy his style, as we are huge Lost fans, another one of his projects.
I also enjoy Leonard Nimoy and he does makes a cameo appearance in this episode. I was curious to see if Bill Shatner was going to also be in it, but I remembered after the movie that his character dies in Star Trek Generations. The writers stay true to most of the proper story line, but there are a few differences, especially with Spock’s mother.
No spoilers here and if you need a break from the summer heat or like Sci-fi at all, this movie is worth it and I hope you enjoy it.
