"Liked it, loved it, want some more of it." by cschneider2007

"The flow of energy of the screen was nothing less than pure fire! The first SciFi movie that did not attempt to stand on impressive new special effects alone! The story, actors, and special effects flowed into a new NUMBER ONE SCI-FI Classic! The cast blew away all expectations and refused to disapoint. Welcome to the trek universe all of you!"> - by seanglowa "Awesome flick. You will enjoy even if you aren't a Trek fan." - by pangerdude

"I know that that word [Epic] is used a lot today but this is the first time in a VERY long time that I wanted to clap at the end of a film...The story was excellently paced and made sense....I watched this movie in a theater full of youngsters, oldsters, old fans and newbies to the Star Trek mythos. It held up for all of the groups and there was even a moment where the audience applauded. I will buy this when it comes out of DVD....A! [Rating] - by onyxtiger74

"I watched the movie with my two sisters and my 12 year old niece, we had a blast. I saw families "enjoying" a movie for what it was...entertainment!" - by npennycandy

"This new edition is an operetic rediscovery of the formula that made the original Star Trek such a success. Only better, faster, smarter, and even more entertaining than the original." - by hodice

"If this movie immediately started again...right after it finish. I would watch it again with my jaw stuck to the sticky movie theater flooring...I thought the script was well written. Action is great. And it has great humor as well. Again I'm no Star Trek fan or at least I wasn't a Star Trek fan....At least 95% of the people that see this will NOT be disappointed." - by nathan_0485

"I saw the movie tonight and I was blown away. The movie was excellent on its own. But when you add in the references to the original series, and the integrity with which the younger characters are true to the original characters, I cannot say enough good things about it. I want to see it again!" - by voiceoftheamerican

"This movie was freaking amazing! Whether you're an old Star Trek fan or it's your first time viewing it, or if you're someone like me, who has respect for the series but hasn't seen all that much of it, go see this movie. I mean it, as soon as you're done reading this review and marking it as "Helpful," cancel all previous engagements then go out and see this movie. It will blow your friggin' mind." - by pleasant_robert

"It is FANTASTICALLY FUN, and before it was even over I was already wanting to get the DVD for Christmas. This is a summer movie worth seeing at least twice, which is exactly what I'm going to do, if I have anything to say about it." by april.veilchen

"O my goodness!! Best movie I've seen in years!! Going into the star trek movie (the first day it came out) I had watched a few of the other ones. This one did the best job of blowing absolutely every other one out of the water and more." - by jerseygirl81291

"This movie was amazing! I am not a Star Trek fan at all but this blew my mind." - by bmorris1979

"Star Trek is the reason I became a scientist...I HAVE to say that I really loved the film, and I loved to see the essence of those characters live again. Gene Roddenberry would be proud to see his universe reimagined in such a visually brilliant manner. The action sequences were amazing, but the storyline and emotional content was there, too." - by nagemyelpmas

"This movie is almost perfect. It is the best summer movie I've seen since The Empire Strikes Back." - by empirepark

"This movie had me on my toes the whole time. I really enjoyed it and thought it was even better than those Star Wars movie." by sweet_melinda15

"This movie is a spectacular, out of the park, grand slam of a homerun! It has something for old fans and new fans alike plus mind blowing visual effects!" - by paulnjake

I ask you how amazing does a movie have to do to create a whole new fan base? "Behold a new generation of "Trekkies" is born!" - by paulnjake

The first thing I thought walking out of the theater is I want to see more of those characters! The "A" says it all! Outstanding!! ...the director had a solid story to work with and had a great vision of what he needed to do to take Star Trek to a whole new level. - by favrewanab

"This is no "next installment" film in a tired old series. As a stand-alone story, it captivates the viewer from the opening, heart-pounding sequence and never stops until after the credits start rolling. The balance between action, adventure, love, drama, history, the present day, earth-based scenes vs space scenes is kept throughout the film so that non-trekkers will love it as much as Trekkers...Star Trek is a WINNER! I will see this film over and over in the weeks to come, I'm sure!" - by SultryBrat
