I went to see Star Trek a couple days ago with my brother, and we were both quite impressed. Admittedly, neither of us are huge Trek fans; my brother hasn't watched a single episode, and I'm just going off of what I remember from TVTropes. Honestly, it reminded me of the original Star Wars trilogy, in a good way. The action was entertaining, and the characters were enjoyable, especially the surprisingly tragic Big Bad, all of which made it really easy to ignore the niggling little details.
