In 6 Words: Pissed off Future Romulan seeks revenge.

My Rating: Better then a new pair of knee high socks, [5 stars]

My Comments: I must say that this is one of the few good movies I’ve seen recently. I couldn’t find anything really wrong with it to be honest, it had a good balance of romance, action, and comedy. Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto really are a dynamic duo.

Recommend?: I recommend this movie to anyone who likes a good action movie. I’ve heard that a lot of original Trekkies didn’t care for the movie because of the minor changes but I think it was great.

Overall: This movie is totally worth seeing again and again [I would know..cause I did

My Rating: Rental[3 stars]

My Comments: This movie was good in the idea and on paper, on the big screen it lacked in graphics. There were parts that you could tell were horribly done. Even though Hugh Jackman tried in this movie, it was a huge cliché when it came to the script.

Recommend?: If you like the X-Men comic books, this movie is for you. However, I have warned you of its faults.

Overall: It was a good movie to see on a Friday night but I don’t plan on seeing it again anytime soon.
