Star Trek

I was looking forward to seeing what J.J. Abrams would do with Star Trek, after all his previous endeavours are good and his latest “Fringe” is definitively first good contender to the X-Files.
The movie is certainly action packed from the 1st minute and keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole 127 minutes. If you disregard the “Star Trek” history it’s a very good and entertaining sci-fi movie. Unfortunately for me the movie theatre I went to to see it had a damaged reel and horrible sound but I still enjoyed it.
The story is well written, it does not discard the original time line of Star Trek as much as rewrites it, in the original timeline James T. Kirk’s father sees him graduating, I have no knowledge to the romantic involvement of Uhura and Spock and nor Vulcan or Romulus are destroyed. But in good Star Trek tradition a demonic time traveller changes all of that. I must also admit that the choice of actors worried me a little but each played their part well enough.
So go watch it and if you are a Star Trek fan give it the break it deserves.
