Star Trek

Review By: Dan Deevy

Movie Grade: B+

OK before I begin this review let me just say that I still think The Next Generation cast had at least one more movie in them. If it hadn’t been for that hack imitating a director, Stuart Baird, Star Trek: Nemesis would have been an amazing success and would have led to one final adventure for Captain Picard and crew. But since that didn’t happen I was excited to see a brilliant movie blending the crews of Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager; kind of a best of the best all stars movie. But then that didn’t happen either. Pretty much the last thing I wanted to see was a whole new cast coming in pretending to be our beloved original seven. And of course, that’s what did finally end up happening.

Exhale an enormous sigh of relief fellow purists... it wasn’t that bad; in fact, a lot of it recaptured the charm and magic of the original series which I was thrilled about. However, the movie is far from perfect.

I went in to the film praying that the time travel nature of the story would make up for the fact that nothing looked right. The bridge looked like something out of Lost in Space or Galaxy Quest - nothing like the bridge we all know and love. The Enterprise itself had been drastically redesigned along with the crews’ uniforms and the overall look and feel of life in the 23rd century. Well, it turns out that all of that has happened because a bitter angry Romulan called Nero (Eric Bana) has gone back in time and changed history. The entire timeline from moments before Kirk’s birth to what the film presents as present day is totally different from what we all know as the true history of Star Trek. This was a brilliant move on the part of the creative team behind the film because now, they can do anything they want... change anything they want and it’s acceptable.

For me the plot of the film is almost irrelevant beyond the above points so I’m not going to go
