Star Trek came out in theaters on May 8, 2009. Star Trek revolves around James T. Kirk and his life. James Kirk’s mother gave birth to him right before his father died saving eight hundred people from doom. Few years later, when James is grown up a little bit, a man shows up and dares James to achieve better in life than his father did. James accepts the dare and goes to join the Starfleet Academy out in outer space. When danger faces the Starfleet Academy again, James is left behind because the Starfleet Academy thinks that he is incompetent. James Sneaks onboard a ship with his best buddy, Bones. Later in the movie, James faces the challenge of defeating evil. The actors in this movie include celebrities such as: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, John Cho, and Winona Ryder. Chris Pine lived up to the expectations of his character. All the characters in the movie portrayed their character well and their performance in the movie was good too. All of the character’s motivation was to stop the evil forces and prevent them attacking the Starfleet in the future. From watching this movie the audience is supposed to take away that the movie revolved around James T Kirk and his nemesis, Spock and their ongoing argument over what they should do to stop the evil forces. I agree with reviews saying that Star Trek was a good movie for science fiction movie fans. According to The New York Times, Star Trek revolves around two guys who get themselves into an ongoing conversation about civilizations and discontents. I agree with this statement. In my opinion, if you are a person who is into science fiction movies with a lot of special effects, Star Trek is definitely worth the money to go see.
