Well, while I didn’t get the IMAX experience I had hoped for, I did get to watch Star Trek on Sunday – and after the bad taste in my mouth from Wolverine, it is nice to know someone can pull off a sci-fi movie without forgetting the plot.
That is more of a slap at Wolverine, which I disliked so much I decided not to review it, because I thought it would make me sound too geeky
But Star Trek is almost the opposite. It is set in the future, but not so much so that the director decides to shove a million future-like products in your face to reinforce the point. Sure, there are aliens, space travel, tasers and even a good ole “beam me up Scotty!”, it still took a non-trekkie such as myself and drew me in enough that I am looking forward to a sequel!
I know its not for everybody, but I suggest seeing it – even if you are a little skeptical about seeing a movie that could potentially have viewers with Spok ears, try it anyone – it just might fit you.
