Musings

What a movie! It’s really good, full of action and bravado. The two main actors Chris Pine as Captain James T Kirk and Zachary Quinto as Spock are excellent in their roles. They reprise the original versions played by William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy (who has a cameo role as a much older Spock!).

I’m a Star Trek fan having watched the series on TV since I was in school. Pine’s Captain Kirk is a younger version of William Shatner’s role. The way he looks, tilts his head and his language, all match that of the original Kirk. Spock is as anal as all Vulcans are. But he’s good too. 

Much better than Wolverine. I only admired Hugh Jackman’s body, muscular and lean. Other than that, it’s a so-so. 

You’re going to be spoilt for choice this weekend since Angels and Demons is opening tomorrow. Straits Times gave this movie 3 stars. So if you’ve to choose which movie to see this weekend, I would say Star Trek. You won’t regret it.
