Star Trek was amazing. For those who grew up watching it, you're in for a real treat...so many great lines that remind you of the old shows, and so many little inside jokes and plots that bring it all back. All the actors they picked for it did a brilliant job in it and appearances of other amazing actor(s) was key to the enjoyment of the film. I was grinning like a kid the entire movie! Can't wait for the next one! But it'll be hard to beat how awesome this one was. I brought a friend who had never seen a single Star Trek episode of any kind and she loved the movie as well, so it is a movie for anybody.
While entertaining and funny in many parts, and pays tribute to past Indiana Jones movies, this movie I felt was lacking. To me it just didn't have that Indiana Jones feeling while watching it. It felt more like a bad knock off.
I still recommend seeing it as it is entertaining, which I feel is a big part of what defines a movie and going to see it, but if you wait to see it at home while renting it, you won't wish you'd see it on the big screen. I saw it opening night and granted, because the fans were hyped about it, it made the experience better, but seeing it after opening shows/weekends will definitely make it lack even more so.
I loved this movie. I knew mostly nothing about it going in and was excited the entire time watching it. Very well done, hilarious in many parts, and was pleasantly surprised by the casting and wit that was in the movie. Definitely recommend it to everyone, parents, kids, teens, anyone could easily watch and like this film! Fun for the whole family.
