Only a couple of days until the full UK release of the new Star Trek Movie. I had my doubts at first, but I'm ready to give it a go. The movie really has alot to live up to!

Well we went to see the movie on Thursday.
In a way I got what I expected:-
Great effects
Loads of Action
Re vamped Enterprise
And the dreaded time travel plot line
As discussed with my work mates prior to seeing the movie I though it would be a great action adventure for non fans who would love it. I still stand by that, and as expected they did.
I think it is great for a new generation of fans who don't really watch TOS but know the characters names.
Maybe I have high expectations but I though the Nero character was a trifle half hearted (and very Shinzon) Where are all of the good baddies? I am an original series fan and Spock is my favourite and I am still trying to erase the turbo lift scene from my memory.
I don't think seeing JJ spout on about taking Trek away from the geeks and making it cool was the best pre movie viewing.
I think a few viewings of Wrath of Khan will re balance my trek.
PS. Did anyone else think Shadows (Babylon 5) when Nero's ship first appeared?
