Anyone seen it?  Got good reviews on the radio today so think I'll invest my ten bucks and go see it at the cinema.

On the subject of good films, I enjoyed Liam Neeson's latest offering, 'Taken'.  Available on DVD, though if you wait a couple of months, it'll be a fiver rather than the overpriced fourteen or fifteen pounds they command when first released.  Shades of 'Bourne', it's good entertaining nonsense.

I just watched it, Great movie, Thankfully it had none of the cheesiness of the original startrek or the subsequent other movies from the franchise.

well worth a watch IMHO

You rthink Wynona Ryder had tp die in the film or they did that cos they caught her pinching the props to sell on Ebay?

Saw it yesterday...thought it was really good.

The way it ended looks like there will be a lot more of them over the next few years too.

I want to see more of Scotty's wee pal...lol

Thought it was great-I used to pretty much hate Star Trek but this seemed a bit different and I was right- a lot more action packed than usual and almost like Starwarslike- thought all the characters were great in it,

Had to come home and check all the actors(the geek that I am) as I knew I knew some of the faces but didnt know from where- Bana did look different with his bald head and wynona Rider was a wierd one cuz I wasnt expecting it- cant wait for more to get released.

Saw it tonight.

Pretty decent effects, which is high praise from me coz usually I can't stand all that modern swish swosh in your face CG tosh.
Dialogue coulda been mucho better. Script a bit weak on that front imo.

All in all, a good film. 4/5 stars

The cast and special effects were great but the story was pretty much the same as every other star trek film.  That said I did enjoy it but it wont be a classic.
