The greatest adventure of all time begins with Star Trek, the incredible story of a young crew’s maiden voyage onboard the most advanced starship ever created: the U.S.S. Enterprise. On a journey filled with action, comedy and cosmic peril, the new recruits must find a way to stop an evil being whose mission of vengeance threatens all of mankind. The fate of the galaxy rests in the hands of bitter rivals. One, James Kirk (Chris Pine), is a delinquent, thrill-seeking Iowa farm boy. The other, Spock (Zachary Quinto), was raised in a logic-based society that rejects all emotion. As fiery instinct clashes with calm reason, their unlikely but powerful partnership is the only thing capable of leading their crew through unimaginable danger, boldly going where no one has gone before.

Customer Rating: Summary: Not disappointed! Comment: I'm always a bit nervous whenever a classic series is rebooted. It's very difficult to pull it off, but Star Trek made it happen! This addition finished off my entire blu ray Star Trek movie collection, and I'm pleased to say it is one of my favorites! Customer Rating: Summary: Rebirth of an Iconic line Comment: Saw the movie in the theater and loved it. Bought the DVD and still love it. A a classic trekker I was cautiously optimistic when the movie came out. Now I am sold on the idea of altering a few things and seeing how it all works out, this time around. Customer Rating: Summary: enjoyable reboot Comment: I rented the new Star Trek movie from Netflix this week.
Before I watched the movie, I had my doubts about it. After watching the movie, my doubts were eased. I found the movie to be very enjoyable.
The movie is part reboot/part prequel to the Star Trek franchise. The movie does a good job of introducing Captain Kirk, Spock, etc. to a younger generation of Star Trek fans. The movie also has some nostalgic references for the older generations of Star Trek fans.
I'm looking forward to seeing sequels that are made. Customer Rating: Summary: Really cool movie! Comment: I loved this movie. I was skeptical about a new Star Trek movie with new actors maintaining the spirit of the original series. I thought this movie did that. They also cleverly fixed it so that any future sequels can entail new stories because they are now on a different timeline of events. Now that's cool! Customer Rating: Summary: Freaking Delivers. Comment: This is not the Star Trek of my youth, and I was a big fan - yet this movie delivers the freaking goods in ways that the wussy-fied Star Trek of the nineties could only dream about (Deep Space Nine, Voyager). In this film, we're no longer in conflict about sipping 'tainted' mushroom soup (see Voyager - no, don't see it), now the stakes are real, larger than life, and important in the journey of this young crew. The entire cast raises the bar on performances, interaction, good chemistry and comedic timing. It's uncanny how much Zachary Quinto resembles Leonard Nimoy in the role of Spock, while still putting his own tweak to the character. Chris Pine IS Captain Kirk.
Dr. McCoy is lovable and comedic and played to a "T "by Karl Urban.
It is very rare - preciously rare - that a big-budget franchise employs first class effects, compelling sound, and 3 strong Acts all in the service of character-driven storytelling. "Star Trek" is that rarity. This is Star Trek as space opera, big and adventurous, and is only given proper justice by seeing it in hi-def!
