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.

The Best Star Trek ever Sep 07, 2010 If there is one industry that puts out better products every year, it would have to be the global movie industry. In the past decade, Hollywood has put out the best comic book movie ever (Dark Knight), the best zombie comedy ever (Zombieland), the best pirate movies ever (POTC 1-3), and now the best Star Trek movie ever. Coming after a series of so-so Trek films from both the original and Next Generation genres, this is the first Star Trek movie not based on a TV serial. Instead, all the actors and actresses are new, the soundtrack is new (except for the ending credits), the cinematography, shooting style, ship interior, ship exterior and everything else is new. Hence a clean slate for the director and for the fans. The result is probably one of the 5 best movies of 2009, and a movie that should have received a Best Picture nod from the Academy Awards. The dialogue is engaging, the action scenes are a great mix of drama, tension and chaos, the fight scenes are bloody but not gory, and the movie's pacing is perfect. Not a wasted scene in this movie, and nothing is left out. Overall, a great movie.

wonderful remake Sep 06, 2010 my wife and i were never trekkies, but we grew up watching shatner, and the old star trek and liked it, never really got into the spinoffs even though i liked the next generation movies, wife didn't, we both just finished watching the new star trek movie, and very glad i bought it, we liked the characters, the humor, storyline, the action, special effects were outstanding, don't understand some of these reviews and what they want in a movie, they nailed most of the characters, the movie without spoiling anything was a little fast put together as the crew were put in their places a little earlier then was believable, but we loved the movie and can't wait for the next one, without spoiling anything the romantic interlude was very unexpected, the plot great, characters likeable, this movie had the humor the next generation and other star treks lacked which i think is why my wife loved it so much, james kirk was a little bit wacky, spock's voice was a little high pitched, was it a perfect movie, such thing is not possible, but a great movie we both think it was, simon pegg could have been brought in a little sooner also, if you are a fan of any star trek or star wars, it hard to believe you would not like or love this movie, good luck and take care...............
5 Star Top Quality Service Sep 05, 2010 When I received this 2-disc digital copy edition of Star Trek: The Beginning (Star Trek XI), my dvds were in perfect shape. They looked perfect and played perfectly. I experienced 5 star top quality service and I am 100% satisfied. Thank you very much.

Good reboot to the series Sep 02, 2010 First,let me say that Leonard Nimoy's Spock has always been my favorite Star Trek character. I was very pleased, in this new version, to see more of Spock's human qualities. Although only half-Vulcan, his demeanor (while I loved it!) was always in full-Vulcan mode. I like the new side to Spock, and I like the romance between Spock and Uhura. Although I originally liked William Shatner's Jim Kirk, over time I began to find the character pompous, arrogant, and full of himself. It's interesting, and very realistic to me, that the young Jim Kirk had those characteristics in abundance! In all, I like the direction that this reboot to the classic series is taking. I enjoyed the movie and look forward to its sequel.

Action-Smacktion Sep 01, 2010 I was never a "trekkie" although I grew up watching the original Star Trek series and enjoyed the first 3 or 4 feature films such as The Wrath of Khan and The Voyage Home. What they lacked in visual effects and technological savvy they more than made up for in story, pitch and character development.
Star Trek 2009 is not a "bad" movie. There is a plot and the movie does involve the genesis of the original characters and how and why they found themselves together aboard the acclaimed USS Enterprise. Unfortunately, the film focuses too little on these events and primarily concerns itself with action scenes and special effects.
Almost from the word GO the movie is about loud and noisy, although visually spectacular, battle scenes combined with exhausting, seemingly never ending brawls between the various characters. In between, the plot is very difficult to follow. There are several flash forwards accompanied by several flashbacks because the plot involves....you guessed it, a black hole involving time travel. I was so busy trying to unravel the plot shifts that it wasn't until well after the movie ended that I came to the conclusion that the storyline was actually pretty clever.
Star Trek 2009 is all about fast, furious and visually entertaining and leaves little to the imagination.
