This new Star Trek movie is witty, clever and I love the humor. The casting is top rate and I thought they did a great job developing the roles into what we grew up with on TV and the later Star Trek movies by enhancing the essence of their defining characteristics. I did miss Captain Kirk's famous line "engage" at the end of the movie, though.
My daughter and I read all the books, and couldn't wait for the movie - we weren't disappointed. The casting was superb and the plot followed the book nicely. While the movie did seem slow in a few spots, we look forward to New Moon.
