To boldly go where?

I did it. I saw Star Trek (2009). I laughed, I cried, I learned. The first 20 mins. were so engrossing. I cried at the part where you were supposed to. It was so cool looking, and the dialog was very real feeling and natural. Now as for Kirk, a little to EXTREME! He was suicidal and psychotic. I was not digging the Kirk. Spock had me at hello. I'm a sucker for Sylar and that's that. He was so cool as Spock, totally the best choice. Good casting. Everybody else was good as well. All roles totally fit and yet they were all a little different and special unto themselves. Story...a bit shaky. I mean c'mon with the time travel. It's like J.J. Abrams saw Back to the Future as a 13 year old little nerd with his D and D friends on the Friday that it came out, and when he came out of the theater he said "I'm gonna make movies!" Which is totally cool, just don't make Back to the Future 15 times. I love Lost. I liked Star Trek, but lest us not forget the one called Mission Impossible III. (pause) I want you to think about it for a moment. Think how bad it was. Now ask yourself this, "Was it bad because there was no Time Travel?" Did I just blow your mind? TRUTH BOMB. BOOM!
Well let's wrap it up. Star Trek 3 out 5 stars. 5 being There Will Be Blood, 1 being Ghost of Girlfriends Past.
