For a girl who preferred Legos over Transformers, I have to say that this was an awesome movie. I didn't see the first one, but I caught up the plot very easily. It's an action-packed, shoot-em-up type movie that we've needed this year! The plot was smooth and everything was pretty much believable (acting and storylines). I recommend this to anyone who is looking for great action!
I absolutely liked the concept of Spock Prime and Nero going into the past and changing the world of Star Trek as we know it. The acting was believable and I did not keep track of timing at all. I enjoyed this film immensely!
