Everything but the Kitchen Sink!

Well, everything possible was done to this story to elicit every possible emotions - but the one main emotion: satisfaction! It is not a horrible movie - just way too contrived. Come on already - I'm surprised they didn't throw in a three legged puppy. Then there is the poor girls lips! Yoiks! Didn't she have access to chap stick? I am sorry, but I found myself staring at the weird makeup job, rather than thinking this girl looked to be dying. Anyway, Jason Patric is still a looker and Joan Cusack was, as always, the best. See it just for her if you need a reason!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Chekov Steals the Show!

The movie was fun and action packed. Star Trek aficionados will appreciate all the character introductions and the feel of the original. But as I said, Chekov steals every scene he is in! He is wery, wery good and I hope to see more of him,
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Paul Bettany - More More More!!

The movie was great fun - pretty decent special effects - great characters - fast paced - all the things you enjoy in a fantasy film like this. And .. I like Brendan Fraser plenty - good ole' Encino Man still looking good - But, Paul Bettany stole every scene he was in and looks fantastic - he can act, of course, but I know he has been working out because he looks buff!! Wot a hunk-o-hunk-o-burning love!! Remember him from A Night's Tale? Chaucer? Woohoo! Can't wait to see him again!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Good but Predictable

Well written, acted, and directed - interesting story line - but still a tad too politically correct. I have known a few "Clint Eastwood characters" and his was a bit over-sympathetic. Still - can't have too much truth - Yoiks! - it would be too scary. Didn't like ending, of course, but the movie flowed well and there were some really well scripted scenes - barbershop scenes are great examples.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
