To me, Trek was always supposed to be a cerebral show (and movies). But of course, the most popular Trek movies and series seasons are those where there is a lot of action. Not surprising, therefore, that this movie is so popular. What do I know? (My action sci-fi has so far been my most popular stuff, too. I think it's a genre thing.)
I agree with Over: It had holes. Big, black holes. But it was still fun to watch, and I'd have to say, they did a nice job of throwing out an entire 40 years of history in order to start all over.
Yeah... I'm not sure what the point to the reboot was, either.
Oh, wait... I do know why.
Because Paramount has a lot of money tied up in that franchise, and anything they can do to re-re-re-re-revive it, they will do.
Oh, yeah, one more thing: For such a fancy, futuristic, sleek and sexy ship, why does Engineering look like my office building's boiler room?
