Saw the Star Trek movie--SQUEEEE! It is bleepin' AWESOME. I love everything about it--the story and script are great (and FUNNY--Kirk with the hands was killing me), the performances are really remarkable. VERY, very strong cast. It's so cute, it's like watching Tiny Toons with these baby-faces saying these lines (Sulu especially looks young). I have to single out Zachary Quinto who just completely rocked Spock. He was even sexy and I've always been a Kirk fangirl.
The opening sequence was heart-breaking.
I love how they showed death--how abrupt and horrible it was, when the crewmember was sucked out into space in the opening sequence, and (another death) the graphic saying "TERMINATED." That was quite shocking, actually.
LOVED the guy playing McCoy. Scotty was also terrific, and I've always been a fan of Zoe Saldana, ever since Center Stage. She's just so sexy and badass. And I happen to love Anton Yelchin anyway, so his Chekov was adorable. The best part of the whole movie of course, was the relationship between Kirk and Spock. They were just great together.
One quibble--there was certainly, uh, a lot of fraternizing going on--visibly. That's very un-Naval (Starfleet is based on the Navy). But what the heck, I liked them together.
And how AWFUL was that ship? Did that look evil or what? *shivers*
The whole thing had such an incredible joy and energy to it it was infectious. Very fast-paced, and I liked that. Oooh it was terrific! I have to see this again!
