I just absolutely love the idea of rebooting the Star Trek series. They literally 'start' their very first voyage in the movie. That is just so damn awesome. Coz the TV show, there is absolutely 'no starting point' as to how it all began... unless someone out there has Star Trek S01E01 (actual pilot / start of plot).

Tsk tsk tsk (shakes head)... the 2009 Enterprise is dripping with beauty...

The boosters looks so damn sweet...

Can't even imagine how good it will look with all the CG and effects.

This is definitely getting on my "Must Watch 2009 Movies" list. My fren J J Abrams has done it again...

Yeah, I recall seeing 15 reviews that gave the meter 100%. But now already 22 review and still 100% ?? !! Wow ! This is just an indication that more reviews will be positive. Fantastic. Even for the build up of review count, it should be like 70-80%. I remember The Dark Knight was like 80% + in the beginning, then it was 94%.

Go J.J. Abrams ! This guy isn't a Trekkie. Heck he did this movie not for Star Trek fans, but more movie-goers around the globe. Great job on everything he does from my fav show Lost to Fringe to this.

You're kidding. First it was 11 reviews, then 22 reviews, now 41 review. Still 100% ?

I am checking out RT right now.

95%



76 reviews later ! OMG... this looks set to be a "universally acclaimed" live-action flick on 2009. Sci-fi at its finest ?

J.J Abrams has done it again. Absolutely. I sooo want to watch it. Too bad I've got exams.

Wow. I don't know why. This movie, is said to be one of the finest sci-fi movie ever made and also best prequel ever made in history of movies.

Every one of my friends who watched the movie said it was a freaking blast. They want to watch it... again.

J.J. Abrams has done it.

BTW, when the trailer first came out, I just loved the whole "colorfulness" and "shininess" of the movie. Everything looks incredible. Not corny, but in a way, it is dealt in such high quality.

Damn.

Haven't watch this movie, but pre-cinema score I'll give it a beautiful 9 / 10 .

Watched 8.45pm show on Saturday.

One word - - remarkable.

I am not a Star Trek fan, yet somehow, I know the names "Spock" and "Captain James T. Kirk". What this movie delivers is beyond just a movie - it is filled with moments that make you want to jump out of your seat or gasp for air. It is intense. It is fast paced. And it is Star Trek - something that I was never into. I daresay I only watched like 5 minutes worth of Star Trek TV series.

The movie started beautifully. Then the plot takes off from this point. It is humorous, it is serious, it is all out action. It is stylized heavily and it is damn gorgeous. The production design is astounding. The shiny bits of the interiors, the lights, the constant lens flare, all add up to the visceral experience that the movie has to offer.

The plot is simple. Yet it is intriguing. I loved the way J.J. Abrams did this movie. It is for everyone. Star Trek fans should be very, very pleased with the end result. And movie go-ers like me, enjoyed it thoroughly. Very satisfying.

Almost all aspects of this film exceeded my expectations, albeit a few lengthy argumentative scenes and witty words-smith bickering.

The cast is another achievement - - they are fit perfect for the roles. Zachary Quinto of "Heroes" fan does an incredible job of playing the uber popular "Spock". It is very refreshing to see how Star Trek is portrayed here.

The visual effects - - eye popping. Every moment of the action is as if it went through 15 filters and quality checks. It is very, very polished. Its like a movie with no edges, everything is so polished.

Watching the trailer and getting excited is one thing. Watching the movie and then feeling satisfied is another.

I sincerely recommend this movie to ANYONE, including non sci-fi folks. This is an amazing piece of entertainment. I just can't find something that I didn't quite like so much. I so want to watch this movie again. Perhaps a couple of weeks from now.

My rating : 9 / 10

Verdict : Pure genius. The action sequences are nothing short of breathtaking. It is a roller coaster ride and it is one damn fun movie to watch.

Kirk and the Green Hulk ?

That's nowhere near something called "sex scene". The mannerism was actually humorous and definitely just PG-13.

The movie is so polished.

Its like grandpa shining his 76' Corvette again and again and again until it looks damn shiny even though classic.

Wow. Nice. This year I barely bought any Blu-Ray titles. It will undoubtedly be "District 9".

The teaser is out!

Hey, where's the Khan? Title of Star Trek sequel ‘Into the Darkness'

http://sciencefiction.com/2012/09/09/star-...-into-darkness/

Nice poster... The trailer will be attached to non-IMAX screenings of "The Hobbit" and first 9-minutes would screen exclusively with IMAX 3D prints of "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" on December 14th.

Nice... love the direction. Going for that 'all out destruction' scenario. I feel there is going to be a post-credits scene to set something for a third film.

1:03... Spock



"Wrath of Khan (1982)" vs "Into The Darkness (2012)"

No, I doubt it. A movie with the potential to bring in profit here, no way it will be banned completely. Cuts yes, but I highly doubt it will be banned.

I really wonder what could the content be in the 9-minute preview that would make them want to remove it altogether. It's not like it's 18+ or something, and "The Hobbit" was PG-13, it would make more sense if they removed the 9-minute preview because it was PG-13 while the main film was 'U'.

"I am better."

At what?

"Everything."

Awesomeness is indescribable... come on J.J !

...I want the bad guy to win please.

Keeps getting better. The 'colours' are mesmerizing.



Love this poster. Yet another must watch 2013 film.
