Re: "Nuclear Wessels!" The Star Trek Movie!
I really like about 80% of this movie. The main actors were perfectly chosen,a nd I mean PERFECTLY chosen, and I thought the writing was well about average for the genre. The effects and atmosphere were excellent as well, even if the design was lifted a bit from Star Wars (mile high platforms that inexplicably have no railings). It gives the entire era a feeling of imminent and constant danger.
My biggest complaints are with the villain Nero and the plot.
I saw the movie but still don't know who Nero was. I know what happened to him, but I don;t know who he was, so there was no weight to his defeat. I also thought his defeat was far too easy, also. This was no Wrath of Khan, but I'd say it is in the top 3 or 4 of Trek movies.
And I just with the plot was as good as the writing. Half way through the plot kind of sat there like a dead fish slowly attracting flies.
I also thought the space flight was a little too based on air and not naval battles.
Overall, I give it a 85%. Thumbs up but there are significant areas for improvement.
