Thread Name: BS: 'Star Trek- movie
Subject: RE: BS: 'Star Trek- movie
Roger Ebert's review is here. He didn't much like it (two and a half stars) and opened with:
""Star Trek' as a concept has voyaged far beyond science fiction and into the safe waters of space opera,
but that doesn't amaze me. The Gene Roddenberry years, when stories might play with questions
of science, ideals or philosophy, have been replaced by stories reduced to loud and colorful action.
Like so many franchises, it's more concerned with repeating a successful formula than going boldly
where no "Star Trek" has gone before.
