Star Trek - Kenji - 05-29-2009
At last, I could check this thread. Because today is STAR TREK's opening day in Japan, so I saw it. It was great! Brilliant! Fascinating!
Japanese title is "Star Trek episode 1 Adventure of Young Kirk"...([spoiler]No, just kidding![/spoiler] :hand
Oh, yes. I admit. I'm Trekker. :cornut:
A lot of speedy action scenes, comical humor, high quality FX, and friendship drama. Every elements were in this movie. Although some mistakes were in there (For example, a shipyard on the earth). Well, it's not big deal. The most important thing is this movie was good and I want to see it again. I wish sequel. All characters were perfect choice. Especially, Spock as Zachary Quinto. He's really looked like Spock. And I liked young Uhura. She's gorgeous!
I didn't realize [spoiler]Winona Ryder played Spock's mother, Amanda.[/spoiler] *Shame on me!* :o

Kobayashi-Maru test! He confessed he cheated in "Star Trek II".
Even now, Wrath of Kahn was the best ST movie for me.

The Trouble with Tribbles. I like that episode.

I've been away for awhile. I just want to say that I am a Trekie, and I loved this movie. The characters and the hiumor are essential in Star Trek. (That is part of why TOS and DS9 were so superior to TNG, IMO.) The casting and writing in this movie to match the original characters was brilliant. The plot was a little weak. I still found this the most enjoyable movie I have seen in a theater for a long time.
I can't wait for the sequels.
