All I can say is that if you havent seen this yet, go see it now. It was everything that I expected and then some. From the beginning to the end. Chris Pine plays Capt. Kirk very well. Every time I saw him though it reminded me of Smokin Aces when he shoots Ben Afleck and then goes up to his dead body and starts moving his lips with his fingers and starts talking.Lol. All the actors did very well at playing their parts.
