I grew up in between Star Trek and Star Wars.  I was a fan of Star Wars, but when Star Trek: The Motion Picture came out in 1979,  it gained my interest.  After Wrath of Khan…I was hooked.  I was very interested in The Next Generation series and Star Trek DS9.  Unfortunately, the movies and TV shows lost my interest and became as convoluted as the space-time continuum.

And along comes J.J. Abrams, creator of  Lost, Fringe, and the movie Cloverfield.  His mission, was to resurrect and re-imagine the Star Trek franchise.  Did he accomplish his task?

Absolutely…at WARP SPEED!  Everything, and I mean everything, from the cast, to the look and feel, to the music, it was all spot on.  The cast stepped into the roles of cultural icons and never missed a beat.  The score was grand and awe inspiring.  The ship…well, there was even a “hero shot” for the Enterprise.

I will go see Star Trek again, watch it online, buy it when it comes out on DVD…this is an amazing movie and a tremendous start to the Summer movie season.  Go see it as soon as possible, and enjoy it.

Live long, and prosper.
