Star Trek (2009) Movie Review Message Board and Comments

the movie was awful. the storyline shared aspects of the last star trek movie, Nemesis before this latest one. both movies involved romulans. both storylines follows romulans using the planet Romulas to want to destroy Earth. the difference was the additions of stories about the two main characters, spock and kirk, and better special effects. acting was poor and not convincing. the actors simply looked too young on screen and it was hard to take them seriously. the only one worth mentioning was Karl Urban who was spotless as "Bones" in the movie. old lines from the previous movie and tv series were said for the sake of saying it. anyone who follows star trek would probably find it hard to believe that the planet vulcan and romulas can be destroyed so easily. plus the timeline in the movie did not totally make sense. the movie started off with kirk's birth, but the next time they faced nero again, it was several years ahead towards the main part of the movie. if nero's ship could travel from vulcan to earth that quickly, then what was he waiting for? captain kirk in that timeline should also not be able to communicate without his communication device like they did in the star trek next generations. more serious fans of the star trek series will probably have more questions too. the movie was poor, too much hype, lacking substance.
