Length:
In What room I watched it in: Living room
Who I’m watching it with: Myself
Reason I bought the DVD: Well I just bought and was in the mood. Plus, what else do I have to do with my time while I apply for jobs.
15 word plot summary: Kirk! Spock! Older Spock! The
Awesomest Character: Karl Urban as Dr. McCoy.
I’ve seen Karl Urban in a bunch of movies as this really cool, tough guy character like in Doom, the second two Lord of the Rings movies and the second Bourne movie, but in this movie he plays an iconic character from the old Star Trek movies and television series and honestly makes you believe that he was a younger version of DeForest Kelly. He even says all of “Bones’” trademark lines and is so awesome that he beat out Chris Pine’s Captain Kirk as the awesomest character despite Kirk being awesome himself.
Favorite Quote: Scotty: Are you from the future?
James T. Kirk: Yeah, he is. I'm not.
Scotty: Well, that's brilliant. Do they still have sandwiches there?
Random actor: Two for this one, one is in the movie for like two seconds, the other a few minutes. First off is the quick random one. Bob Clendenin otherwise known as the swinging’ Dr. Zeltzer on Scrubs, in this movie he plays a character called in the credits, Shipyard Worker. He’s literally in the movie for less than 30 seconds as he walks with Kirk as he enters the training facility.
Better watch quickly or you'll miss me in this movie!
The most random would be Tyler Perry as Admiral Richard Barnett who is in charge of both of Kirk’s hearings at Starfleet. Why he’s in this movie as such a minor character is very random…Tyler Perry’s a big deal.
Tyler Perry did not dress as Madea in this movie unfortunately
Do they say the title in the movie: Nope
Best Scene: My favorite scene is when Kirk is taking the unbeatable test engineered by Spock and beats it. He’s so relaxed while eating his apple and the test ship is about to explode that it’s really entertaining.
When will I feel the need to watch it again: Probably sooner rather than later…I really like this movie as I saw it twice in the theater.
Best IMDB fact: The captain asks for crew with hand-to-hand combat training. Sulu volunteers, then later reveals his only real training is fencing. This is a tip of the hat to George Takei, who played the original Sulu from "Star Trek" (1966). Takei has admitted in interviews that he was so eager to keep his job that he falsely claimed to know fencing and was forced to learn it immediately for an episode.
