Well...just back from seeing it at a Gold Pass cinema.
In my 40-something years of being an avid Star Trek fan..... this was arguably the best two hours of Trek viewing pleasure I've had. It is the best-produced movie of all of them IMHO. Simply stunning - it will be hard to top this one as it's set the benchmark. To quote a review on the movie - "It's a transporter ride to sci-fi nirvana". J.J Abrams has outdone himself.
The characters were all brilliant, and were acted true to their later selves. The effects were mind-numbing, the sound was incredible and the story line brought the next 40 years into focus. Going to warp was explosive. The ship interior and crew compliment brought a new dimension to Starfleet.
Wow, wow, wow!
I'll be back..... or was that from something else... ?
