The buzz/hype about how this type of movie changes the movies experience is NO hype at all. I saw this movie while on vacation in "real3D" with some of the family. Upon my return I had to take some other parts of the family to watch it Again in IMAX 3D. Deep story, great action, and did i mention its in "3D!"!!! . woth paying for it twice. Well done.
Somone learned a lesson and decided not to destroy this classic like they did with "Star Wars" in the prequels. Aside from the special effects the real entertainment was in the characters and their initial introduction to new generations as well as re-introduction to us old school trekies. Even more over with the slight touch of humor that was put in was the cherry on top. IMAX was well worth in this case and I also can not wait for sequels. They needs to stick to the basics and do exactly how this was done to keep with the high standard that was just set. We are desynthesized with special affects but NOT with special characters. Well done. Bravo!!!
