To Boldly Go...
I must admit, when I first heard there was going to be a new Star Trek movie, I winced. I mean c'mon, why do this to one of the most iconic series in television's rich history?
It's gonna be awful , I thought.
Well, I got to see it the other day--it's terrific! What a dazzling fun ride!
The prequel takes us to the time before Kirk, Spock, Uhura, Bones and Scotty became crew members on the USS Enterprise. Being a fan of the tv series, it was a blast seeing the characters in their youth!
The writing, acting and special effects are all first rate. So far, the movie has grossed over $190 million and going strong!
There will be sequels--at this point that would be...well, logical.
