Star Trek (2009)

One of my all time favorites.

Awesome Movie

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Star Trek is an unnecessary reboot in my opinion. JJ Abrabs is a talented filmmaker and it is easy to see his enthusiasm (he is almost like a fanboy giddily recreating all his favorite childhood movies) and rigor but the reboot and especially the cast will always suffer from comparison with the original TV series. Furthermore, although the film is interesting and gets everything sorted- in as much as one can in less than 2 hours- there is a rushed feeling to the proceedings. The special effects are good but we've seen it all by now, the razzle and dazzle only goes so far. The Star trek reboot isn't a bad film as much as an unneeded one.

JJ Abrabs has done a great job of rebooting a franchise which is so sacred to science fiction fans that when they announced the decision of a reboot it was considered heresy by longtime fanboys. All the new actors adapt themselves to iconic roles and the special effects are low key but fantastic. Of course, the main question is- will new fans like it, or even understand the lore? Yes, they will. (Great sequences and fine acting make this a total winner).

This film is so stupid, so tacky, so cheesy and so non-Star Trek that one has to ask: 'Does JJ Abrams even know what Star Trek is?' or 'Does JJ Abrams have any familiarity with Star Trek?' What does this guy have on Hollywood bosses that they let him rip and tear films like this? The cheap effects just compound the problem.

Movie Review: "Star Trek" (2009)Bringing together a remarkable new crew for science-fiction splendors to go inferior of this high-end Hollywood spectacle directed by J.J. Abrams, who brings endless passion to the subject matter he grew up with, when young soon-to-be Star-Fleet-cpatain James Tiberius Kirk, with total pleasures performed by actor Chris Pine, who further gets alongside with perfectly-cast young Mr. Spock, given face by Zachary Quint. Tegether they embark on mission of rules bending, loss, struggle in non-stop action captured in Acadamy-Award-worthy cinematography by Dan Mindel and supportive as splendid production design by Scott Chamblliss in future-defining efforts to attract any entertainment-loving movie spectator to be amazed and just taking away at the movies.The Enterprise crew surrounding performing industry professionals as Karl Urban as Bones, Zoe Saldana as Uhura, Simon Pegg as Scotty and John Cho as Sulu complete power-striving, cinematic-fully-convicted directions by young Hollywood filmmakers on fire to deliver the best-possible 120-Minute-Event-Movie for legendary 1912-founded Industry Major Motion Picture Studio "Paramount", which in prime-time releasing May 2009 could have been unimaginable proud to grant a 150-Million-Dollar production budget to ultimate, undeniable as obvious successes with audiences around the world in highly-recommended revisits of a motion picture entertainment breathtakingly-executed with opening sequence featuring Chris Hemsworth and Eric Bana for the ages in "David vs. Goliath" space opera stand-off embeddded into a tear-dropping score theme composed by Michael Giacchino under utmost confidence with Hollywood company primus "Bad Robot" productions. © 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
