Not quite as good as previous film but still A1
on August 27, 2016
Posted by: NYsteve404
Let me start off by saying I have NEVER watched Star Trek movies or the TV shows before the first Star Trek movie in my life (I am 37 years old.) It was a combination of not being a huge fan of sci-fi movies and being "Team Star Wars" because I didn't have any desire to play "catch up" on hundreds of episodes of a TV series and a handful of movies.
Once I read that the first movie started an alternate timeline in the Star Trek universe it piqued my interest and I am certainly glad that it did. You are introduced to Khan and given some of his backstory. The visuals and sound are amazing and the plot is action packed from start to finish.
For the Star Wars fanboys (or casual fans who are anti Star Trek and don't know why) you won't be disappointed with the purchase if you accept the fact that the only similarities with Star Wars are the spaceships and weird species (and in the case of "The Force Awakens" JJ Abrams is the director.) They are 2 distinct franchises and there is room in your heart for both of them.

The greatest adventure of all time begins with Star Trek, the incredible story of a young crew's maiden voyage onboard the most advanced starship ever created the U.S.S. Enterprise. On a journey filled with action, comedy and cosmic peril, the new recruits must find a way to stop an evil being whose mission of vengeance threatens all of mankind. The fate of the galaxy rests in the hands of bitter rivals. One, James Kirk (Chris Pine), is a delinquent, thrill-seeking Iowa farm boy. The other, Spock (Zachary Quinto), was raised in a logic-based society that rejects all emotion. As fiery instinct clashes with calm reason, their unlikely but powerful partnership is the only thing capable of leading their crew through unimaginable danger, boldly going where no one has gone before.

Must see for Star Wars fanboys and Trekkies alike

Once I read that this movie started an alternate timeline in the Star Trek universe it piqued my interest and I am certainly glad that it did. You are introduced to the main characters from the TV series and shown a decent backstory for both Spock and James T. Kirk. The visuals and sound are amazing and the plot is action packed from start to finish. I even bought "Into Darkness" and enjoyed that as well.

Amazing if you are familiar with source material

The Watchmen 4K version has the color depth and visuals that you would expect in a UHD picture. If you are familiar with The Watchmen graphic novels/source material then you will absolutely love this film.
If you know next to nothing about The Watchmen/the backstory then a 3+ hour long film about weird "super heroes" whom you have never heard of will get boring after the first hour or so.
