My UT son came in for the weekend to surprise me for Mothers Day, so we went as a family (minus oldest) to the IMAX showing of it Saturday night. I LOVED IT!!
I actually cried at the end when they were playing the original music from the series. I cried because I was soooooo HAPPY that they didn't screw it up!! I grew up with the Star Trek series, then when the movies came out, we were die hard fans. I was scared that I would be watching it feeling like the characters weren't right, or that it was too far of a departure from the originals that I wouldn't like it. But, I thought ALL the actors were spot on! Loved our new (younger) Spock, but was so pleased to see Leonard Nemoy!! The new Kirk was great, not a parody (which I was worried about) - but a tribute!! Loved Scottie!!
When my kids were young, we would drive to Colorado for skiing vacations, and in our mini van we would set up the VCR-TV and watch back to back to back Star Trek marathons. Such wonderful memories of that.
At the end of the movie, my youngest leaned over and said, "We need to add that one to our marathons." Loved that!!!
GO SEE IT!!! Even if you're not a Trekie - it is wonderful!
