I agree if that "problem" isn't resolved in the next movie real Trek is dead.I thought the movie was good I liked most of the actors.Spock was dead on.The ship sucked.Looked Ghey outside and had the "Tardis" effect inside.Bridge was rather lame but the effects were about what you would expect.So my overall opinion was that as a stand alone movie it was above average but the general premis was ill thought out and full of holes. As one in a long line of trek movies it fell pretty short,although I must admit that in general the Trek movies were for the most part not great but there was a continuity.If I had not been a life long Trek fan I'd give the movie about a 6.5 to a 7.as a Trek fan I give it a solid 3.
