Product Description
James T. Kirk and his fellow novice crew members aboard the Enterprise face the Romulan villain Nero, who seeks revenge against the Vulcan race for an
Amazon.com
J.J. Abrams' 2009 feature film was billed as "not your father's Star Trek," but your father will probably love it anyway. And what's not to love? It has enough action, emotional impact, humor, and sheer fun for any moviegoer, and Trekkers will enjoy plenty of insider references and a cast that seems ideally suited to portray the characters we know they'll become later. Both a prequel and a reboot, Star Trek introduces us to James T. Kirk (Chris Pine of The Princess Diaries 2), a sharp but aimless young man who's prodded by a Starfleet captain, Christopher Pike (Bruce Greenwood), to enlist and make a difference. At the Academy, Kirk runs afoul of a Vulcan commander named Spock (Zachary Quinto of Heroes), but their conflict has to take a back seat when Starfleet, including its new ship, the Enterprise, has to answer an emergency call from Vulcan. What follows is a stirring tale of genocide and revenge launched by a Romulan (Eric Bana) with a particular interest in Spock, and we get to see the familiar crew come together, including McCoy (Karl Urban), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), Sulu (John Cho), Chekhov (Anton Yelchin), and Scottie (Simon Pegg).The action and visuals make for a spectacular Big-Screen Movie, though the plot by Abrams and his writers, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (who worked together on Transformers and with Abrams on Alias and Mission Impossible III), and his producers (fellow Losties Damon Lindeloff and Bryan Burk) can be a bit of a mind-bender (no surprise there for Lost fans). Hardcore fans with a bone to pick may find faults, but resistance is futile when you can watch Kirk take on the Kobayashi Maru scenario or hear McCoy bark, "Damnit, man, I'm a doctor, not a physicist!" An appearance by Leonard Nimoy and hearing the late Majel Barrett Roddenberry as the voice of the computer simply sweeten the pot. Now comes the hard part: waiting for some sequels to this terrific prequel. --David Horiuchi

Good reboot to the series September 2, 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.

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.

Watch these movie over and over loved it. Great casting and story line. The special features on the actors was fun. If you love Sci-Fi this has to be in your library...

This movie is much better than all the others combined. Although, there wouldn't be this one had the others not been there. Great Movie!!!

I love were the writer took this movie. It is but it isn't your classic Trek.
