Sci-Fi/Action
4.5 stars
Fun, fun, fun!!! The movie starts out with Kirk’s rebellious childhood and his beginnings on the Starship Enterprise. I was never a fan of the series nor the subsequent reunion movies, but this prequel to the series has great special effects along with familiar sounds (like the sirens) and a great story to boot. Haven’t I always said that movies with mostly unknown cast members often turn out to be the best? There are a few cast members you may recognize, including Leonard Nimoy (Yay!), Tyler Perry, Winona Rider (Spock’s Mom), Simon Pegg (as Scotty), Bruce Greenwood (as Capt. Pike) and a barely recognizable Eric Bana as the bad guy, Captain Nero. (Where the heck was William Shatner? Not even a cameo?!!) All the primary characters are pretty much unknowns. I am sure with this young cast that there will be more to come. Fun summer movie.

About Me

- I love movies. I love the big screen in a darkened theater with a great sound system. I love the popcorn with the fake butter too! I go to the theater 2 or 3 times a week, depending on what movies are out. Luckily, my husband allows me to be a spoiled housewife who doesn't have to work anymore, so I can enjoy quiet matinees. Even with the not so great movies, I can usually find something I like about them. If you are the "hard to please" type, this page is probably not for you.
