Wild Things Stinks

WTWTA is meandering, nonsensical, and even appeared to be un-scripted in several parts. Its shallow dialog was boring, whiny, and seemed almost like improvisation that just didn't go anywhere.
In contrast to looking at some of the ugliest characters ever to grace an IMAX screen, some of the visuals were amazing. You can feel the danger in the sea storm, and the fort built by the island monsters (wild things, whatever) was imaginative and creative.
The monsters (some which looked like a hairy H.R. Puff-n-Stuff) are so annoying that you just want to get away from them. Which I did.... by walking out and getting a ticket for another movie.
If you like melancholy films then maybe you will... umm, enjoy it?
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Perfect Launch for Star Trek!

This installment of the ongoing mission is a superb sci-fi film. Great script, very nice set design, brilliant special effects, very (very) well cast, and beautifully executed. Purist shouldn't be disappointed and non-Trek fans can enjoy this film without knowing much about the franchise. The Star Trek prequel was handled beautifully and true to the known lore of Star Trek history. That being said, after seeing the film you'll know why the marketing campaign tells you to "forget everything you know." This film deserves the big screen. See it in IMAX if you can (but sit in the back row and buckle up).
Yes, I recommend this movie.
