Very good, but was over too soon, which is usually a sign of a good movie. Funny how most reviewers skip the delightful Chekhov character. He is a riot. Kirk is still the best and this look at his early years is a rapture that adds to the saga. A couple of downsides, I could do without the over the top "Star Wars" beasts on the ice planet or moon or whatever it was and what is with those whimpy hand held phasers? Give us energy beams like the old days!
