Classic Action Adventure

Although it borrows characters from and pays homage to the original “Star Trek” this movie really is something new. As re-imaginings go, it’s one of the best.
The performances, direction, special effects, set design and costuming are stellar. Characters are engaging and the story is exciting. As an action adventure picture, it's near perfection.
The one element that falters slightly is the writing. The emotional side of things is well handled, but occasionally the plot meanders, getting bogged down by a comic gag or an exposition sequence. And the movie sometimes lacks subtlety and sophistication.
But that's not what “Star Trek” is about at all. It's about getting swept up in an adventure. It's about fun. And I definitely had fun.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
