Loved it! It felt like the original TV series. Good SciFi "how do we do
this", new species, cool tech and a decent sprinkling of cinematic cheese
almost as an homage to how the original series looks now 50 years later.
Watched all the way through the credits and got a giggle seeing the video
output transition back to the console to display an active directory error.
Because it was a digital release, the credits were able to be adjusted to
reflect the death of the actor playing Sulu.
Fans of the classic series should be very happy. Simon Peg did a stellar
writing job and was brilliant on screen as well.
There's a reference to Galaxy Quest that was excellent.
