I actually listened to the reviewers back in December and based on their results, decided to wait till the movie came out on DVD instead of paying $8 at the theatre. I bought the DVD without seeing it and was actually surprised that it was a good mov...ie. Not the best, but good. Patrick Stewart is at his best as Capt. Picard. Brent Spiner was also good as the android Data. Unfortunately, it was way to much a Picard/Data movie and the other actors were more like stand ins. However, they were used to some extent which we should be grateful. The villan played by Tom Hardy was also pretty good, He is no Khan by a long shot but he did pretty well. The special effects were also improved but I still miss ILM. Dont get me wrong, the space battle scene at the end was great to watch with photon torpedoes flying everywhere and the Enterprise taking a pounding. As for the DVD, its pretty basic but so far the best package to come out on a Star Trek DVD next to The Wrath of Khan Directors Edition. I truly wished the director Stuart Baird would of kept the deleted scenes in the film. I think it added more depth and character to the story(I thought the seatbelt was great). Oh well, maybe in two years, Paramount will release a Directors Cut. Over all, I give the movie *** out of ****. A Star Trek fan will add it to his or her collection. Read more Less
