What an amazing movie!! Not a Trek fan in the least (tried getting into it when I was a little kid, but could never gain interest) but my friends and I had the best time watching this. I'm a big JJ Abrams fan (Lost, Alias) so I knew he wouldn't let us down, and he DOESN'T!
The story, ALL of the actors, the comedy, the staggering detail in the special effects makes this perfect for anyone looking for a super fun blockbuster film this summer. Some of the action scenes in space might just take your breath away.
If you just have a very mild, super basic knowledge of the original show (main characters names and their famous lines). you'll have a REALLY good time with this :)
Great movie! Hugh Jackman does another amazing job as Wolverine and Liev Schrieber is surprsingly fantastic as Victor Creed/ Sabretooth. The relationship between the two is both believeable and complex. All of the other heros were great...Ryan Reynolds rips as Dead Pool and Gambit does NOT disappoint! Stryker! Amazing effects throughout...although a couple scenes at the end seemed awkwardly over-'effected'. Who knows. Thats just being overly picky.
Skip the "Rotten Tomatoes" reviews... definitely an awesome movie to check out over the weekend! Worth every cent!
