I gotta say, when I heard about Star Trek I was underwhelmed-- I mean, I'd outgrown the series a long time ago (maybe it sounds elitist, but I had trouble watching TNG and Voyager when it was on TV because Doctor Who had spoiled my sci-fi expectations.). Then several online nerds gave it a kind of lukewarm review ("It wasn't THAT bad, guys!") which I now see was to stem the tide of all those trekkies with "OMG they RUINED IT!!!" disease.

I was very impressed with it as a movie-- everyone turned in brilliant performances (particularly Chekov, Bones, and Scotty *squeeee!*) I thought I would never see such a film without melodrama and camp, but the film had neither-- I genuinely got teary when Kirk's dad was broadcasting to /Cameron/ Kirk's mom . . .

All in all-- I'd go see it again in a heartbeat!
