Who saw it, and what did you think? I'm particularly curious to hear from those who would not consider themselves lifelong Star Trek fans. Likewise, those who are Trekkies/Trekkers, what did you think about JJ's approach?

I am not a Trekkie. I liked it. It's been a long time since I found a movie that interesting. The special effects were pretty good (I'm always looking for the seams in the scenery and they were not really obvious). I did find myself wondering what would happen next a few times, which is a bonus for me. Brian knew enough to see flaws in the story line (even though he says he's not a Trekkie ); I do not. I did watch Next Generation in the late 80s/early 90s and Enterprise when it was on, but I was not an avid viewer of either program. I do like this one more than the other more recent Trek movies that have come out.
The secret romance between Spock and Uhura didn't fit in well with the "bigger picture" story lines.
Great assessment BMM. Good to see more Pro's then Con's. Hopefully all the lurkers in Hollywood will be reading this and take notes for the next movie
The door is VERY wide open at this point. Hopefully something good will happen.You joke about it, but Bob Orci spent hours on the discussion posts at Trekmovie.com, and even took the time to respond to a lot of comments, questions, discussion, etc. They may not care what we think, but at least they're listening!
That's the key for bringing in a new generation of viewers. I found the original series to be incredibly boring. While I am not an action fan normally, I did enjoy this one. I would see it again.I understand that the main crew are signed on for 3 movies. It is great to see this series has been reinvented a la James Bond. I can't wait to see what the Klingons are like.

The acting was terrible, the fight scenes were woefully poorly performed, the scenery blah. I don't think I'm alone in this opinion.The original series boring????
Put your dunce cap on and go sit in the corner for the rest of the day, and do not speak. :dunce:
