STAR TREK -- MINI REVIEW...




Star Trek has gone totally new generation this time. The depiction, methinks, is a of a totally alternate reality to the Shatner-Kirk universe. Plus points for the young lead actors who are totally funky, but the minus points are for the script which is sometimes a bit of a -- pardon le Francaise -- wank-job (as most self-congratulatory J.J. Abrams cinematic projects are). Verdict: The film is watchable -- but didn't excite me terribly.
