Im sorry but the guy with the glasses argument about Nero's revenge is weak.

Ummm...we are both wearing glasses or was that a witty comment about how you think we are both wrong? :)

The IDW prequel comic was very good but the bottom line is NERO is a 1 note villian. after 25 yrs of being stuck in the past he does nothing but..well nothing.

INSANELY AWSOME MOVIE. but nero was just a Darth Maul. cool but pointless character.

[comicculturewarrior]

Totally agree with you mason.

Haha, Elliott you liked it but gave it 2 1/2? Somebody's tough to please!

[comicculturewarrior]

2 1/2 stars is still good. Again, I'm just accustomed to Star Trek being more than just a bunch of space battles and fist fights, but the film was very entertaining nonetheless.

I finally saw the movie today! So now i can watch your review! The bad guy was kinda lame, but maybe he was consumed with rage so he didn't think about changing the future... I wish Scotty was in the movie more... the actor did a good job on his role.

Jar Jar Abfucks sucked in every point...

Glad to see a fellow optimist. lol. My concern for the next one is how can they capture the technological wonder of the original Star Trek 50 years later, when mostly everything wonderful about it has manifested in the real world. Plus, we aren't exactly the same country we were in the middle of the Civil Rights Era, so do we need more heavy-handed messages about racism, sexism and intolerance?

All I can hope for is all the missing intelligence that fans were looking for will be present in a next film. Now that we got the origins all over with

I love Star Trek movies but I have gotten used to all of the villians being bland. The only Star Trek Villian that had real puch in my opinion was the late great Ricardo Montoblan's Khan in "Wrath of Khan" I don't count the Borg because their not really human though that Brog queen was pretty darn close. So I expected the Romulin guy to be a bit of a bore. I give the movie 3 stars like Jose.

[LadyLala04]

Lol. Sorry. I just realized that the guy on the left had glasses also.

[AdolphMugabi]

is it just me, or does Jose look more like an Elliott and Elliott look more like a Jose?

There were Nero issues, but if you think about it Nero had lost his wife and planet and even if he were to change events he could never be with his wife again, he'd be stuck alone in this alternate reality. He did have proper motivation for wanting to punish Spock
