Product Description
-------------------
The greatest adventure of all time begins with Star Trek, the
incredible story of a young crew’s maiden voyage onboard the most
advanced starship ever created: the U.S.S. Enterprise. On a
journey filled with action, comedy and cosmic peril, the new
recruits must find a way to stop an evil being whose mission of
vengeance threatens all of mankind. The e of the galaxy rests
in the hands of bitter rivals. One, James Kirk (Chris Pine), is a
delinquent, thrill-seeking Iowa farm boy. The other, Spock
(Zachary Quinto), was raised in a logic-based society that
rejects all emotion. As fiery instinct clashes with calm reason,
their unlikely but powerful partnership is the only thing capable
of leading their crew through unimaginable danger, boldly going
where no one has gone before.

J.J. Abrams' 2009 feature film was billed as "not your her's
Star Trek," but your her will probably love it anyway. And
what's not to love? It has enough action, emotional impact,
humor, and sheer fun for any moviegoer, and Trekkers will enjoy
plenty of insider references and a cast that seems ideally suited
to portray the characters we know they'll become later. Both a
prequel and a reboot, Star Trek introduces us to James T. Kirk
(Chris Pine of The Princess Diaries 2), a sharp but less young
man who's prodded by a Starfleet captain, Christopher Pike (Bruce
Greenwood), to enlist and make a difference. At the Academy, Kirk
runs afoul of a Vulcan commander named Spock (Zachary Quinto of
Heroes), but their conflict has to take a back seat when
Starfleet, including its new ship, the Enterprise, has to answer
an emergency call from Vulcan. What follows is a stirring tale of
genocide and revenge launched by a Romulan (Eric Bana) with a
particular interest in Spock, and we get to see the familiar crew
come together, including McCoy (Karl Urban), Uhura (Zoe Saldana),
Sulu (John Cho), Chekhov (Anton Yelchin), and Scottie (Simon
Pegg).
The action and visuals make for a spectacular Big-Screen Movie,
though the plot by Abrams and his writers, Roberto Orci and Alex
Kurtzman (who worked together on Transformers and with Abrams on
Alias and Mission Impossible III), and his producers (fellow
Losties Damon Lindeloff and Bryan Burk) can be a bit of a
mind-bender (no surprise there for Lost fans). Hardcore fans with
a to pick may find faults, but resistance is futile when you
can watch Kirk take on the Kobayashi Maru scenario or hear McCoy
bark, "Damnit, man, I'm a doctor, not a physicist!" An appearance
by Leonard Nimoy and hearing the late Majel Barrett Roddenberry
as the voice of the computer simply sweeten the pot. Now comes
the hard part: waiting for some sequels to this terrific prequel.
