I saw it on Friday, and I am duly impressed. Most enjoyable. There were a few spots where I had some, "Yeah, but, in the original series...," but JJ
Abrams, talking to us through Spock, made me shut up and understand what he was doing. There were a few spots that made me cringe nonetheless (First, you
salute the Admiral, THEN you shake his hand, Captain Kirk.), but they were tiny quibbles and didn't detract from the general appeal of the film. And the
only way that Karl Urban could be more Bones was if they had shrunk him to match DeForest Kelly's height. It was creepy.
Trivia: Uhura's Orion roommate was played by Nichelle Nichols granddaughter.
