I saw the pre-screen of the new Trek movie last night in Country Hills, and I thought it was really awesome!

I'm a pretty huge Trek fan... starting with TNG, then DS9, and obviously fell in love with TOS as well. I didn't mind the later seasons of Voyager, and seasons 3 and 4 of Enterprise were OK, but definitely not up to the grade you'd expect.

I was really excited to hear that Abrams was going to be doing this re-imagining of Star Trek, as Berman had really run the franchise out of gas. Nemesis wasn't just bad - it was a complete embarrassment, and an abomination.

I'll admit that there are a few slight nit picky type things with this new one that I had issue with, but nothing major. The actor who plays Bones is a real treat to watch, and Chris Pine does an excellent job as Kirk.

This new movie is fast paced, has tons of action, and is a whole lot of fun. Definitely check it out.
