Look, I'm a fan since I was a kid. I have fond memories of watching the old series and movies with my father. Not a convention guy but still a big fan. This story manages to "re-boot" the Star Trek idea AND be actually be a sequel to everything we've seen before. I had my reservations and wasn't expecting to be this blown away. It's been a while since I've so completely enjoyed myself at a movie. Have fun wether you've seen everthing else or not.
