"Space...the final frontier", this particular Star Trek film has surpassed the frontiers of the preceding Star Trek films I have seen. Besides being exciting, funny, and emotional, Star Trek (2009), was explained quite well. When all the characters that we are familiar with, such as Scotty, and Dr. McCoy were introduced, it was like seeing old friends.

Seemingly, what distinguished this film from the previous films was the absence of lag. It seems like Abram's kept this in mind, and directed the film so that in every scene there was something essential and entertaining occurring. In the other Star Trek films that I have scene, I remember the lag, for at some point the pace of the film would slow down, and it would become slightly boring. Certainly, that is not the case in this film.

The casting was impeccable but William Shatner should of had a cameo .Even though detecting Eric Bana took some time on my part. It was difficult not to like the cast. My favorite was Simon Pegg as Scotty. With that said, it seems like this is a lightning in a bottle type casting. According metacritic.com the film received generally favorable reciews, rottentomatoes.com granted the film 195 fresh tomatoes to 9 rotten ones thus far. Awesome. I'll grade it a 95.
