I was more of a fan of Star Trek: Generations with sir Patrick Stewart. TOS bored me, DS9 was more like a sci/fi soap opera, and I never really saw Enterprise and Voyager. In TOS, the acting was so-so and the effects...well, that's just me being spoiled with today's newer tech (thanks for spoiling us ILM, lol).
But overall, I did enjoy the new movie. It's definitely different in spirit from what Star Trek was back in the day, but that didn't bother me. What bothered me was the FRIGGIN LENS FLARES!!! I don't mind a lens flare here and there, but the flare in this movie was just ridiculous.
I thought the actors all did a GREAT job. Uhura and Sulu were a little boring to me, but the other guys did great. Kirk, Spock, Scotty (MY FAVORITE FROM THE MOVIE!!!!) and Checkov were excellent. I'm looking forward to what happens with the future movies. And I wonder how far they'll go with the franchise...will it stay with Kirk, or will it continue on with Picard? Or will it just crash and burn?
