Star Trek

Rated the movie a 3.

There is something lacking in the storyline of the film. I'm a little bit of a trekkie, so I was surprised at the exact point that Spock's mother died. I would be more of a trekkie if I was surprised when Kirk's father died. I would even be more of a trekkie than that if I recognized the Romulan spaceship that destroyed the first version of the Enterprise.

Ridiculous. The very essence of the universe and Star Trek was used to destroy Star Trek and the Romulan history. The last time I saw something about Star Trek was that the good guys were at war with the Romulans. Now, they are at peace? Universal peace. So no more Romulan bad guys, then use the overused essence of time travel to create another universe with Romulans as bad guys again. The reboot is more confusing with a totally new timeline to follow... a simple solution to a storyline. Then there's a "Red Ball Mass" that can destroy things...

If you don't know any of this, the sci-fi film is different from the original Star Trek and just a typical sci-fi. Just CGI and CGI action.
