IMDB

I am not necessarily a huge Star Trek fan. I could be, in theory, but I have only seen a handful of episodes. Though, I eagerly await the impending debut of all the Star Trek series on Netflix Instant.
I loved this movie. There was a bit of fan service and audience winking at the beginning of the film that was somewhat gross, but necessary. This movie fit into the Star Trek canon, even, which is nice. They made a new Star Trek with younger actors and had it still tie into the old Star Trek series and films. That was pretty impressive.
The special effects were fantastic. I am not a huge special effects person, but these were quite essential to the film and looked amazing. The action sequences were great and exciting. The story was solid. Very good overall.

8/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
