My son and I saw the new Star Trek film yesterday. It is an excellent re-imagining of of the original Star Trek TV series and has certainly restarted the franchise which had got more than a little stale. The story bowls along at a very rapid pace with superb special effects covering and excusing the usual plot holes and some of the most amazing coincidences.
The actors have well captured the personalities and feel of the younger versions of the characters, especially Zachary Quinto as Spock and Karl Urban as 'Bones'.
All in all, great fun.

Any shagging?

Not really, but more than an offer a hobnob ;)
Uhura (Zoe Saldana) looks good in her underwear though. happy088

Don't we all with good special effects lol:
Have to say though that I wouldn't mind going to watch this one and I'm not normally a Star Trek movie fan .

Excellent have been waiting for a review I could trust! I didn't want to go if it was going to ruin the original series for me!

Think of it as a "parallel universe" version.
scaryduck (http://scaryduck.blogspot.com/) has a great synopsis of the film - scroll down to May 14.
DO NOT LOOK IF YOU DON'T WANT THE PLOT SPOILED.

Cool. I shan't look at the link as I don't wish it to be spoiled. May take myself off to the cinema at the weekend then. cloud9:

All being well Mrs TG and I shall go and see it on Sunday.
She is not happy about it as she would rather cut her own feet off than see a Star Trek film.
I offered to lend her an axe but she relented as long as she is fed and watered afterwards like. noooo:

There are some quite attractive young men in it if that helps? eyes:

That will work till she see's the roommate scene lol:
Just got back from watching the film and l really enjoyed it. After the cock up the studio made in not letting Abrams direct the last series of Enterprise he's rejuvinated the franchise with this film.
-
Do they still shake the cameras and do the actors still run from side to side of the set?
-
Saw it yesterday and enjoyed it thoroughly.
Mrs TG liked it as well.
Mrs TG stylee review: "That was fvkcing loud!"
Oh the irony. noooo:

The THW also saw it yesterday ~ she said it was crap and not at all like the "original". I had to point out that the "original" is something like 40 years old and things have changed a bit technology wise. Her BF enjoyed it thoroughly.
Perhaps it's a boy/girl thing
-

Apparently they built a special tilting/vibrating floor thing for this film.

Does Enterprise have a disco then?
