A great big YES!
Oh, sure there were probably plot holes, but this movie grabbed me, sucked me in and didn't let go until the credits rolled.
I am once more reminded of how Zachary Quinto's portrayal of Spock is perfect and Chris Pine makes an excellent Kirk. In fact all the casting is well done, especially Simon Pegg as Mr Scott. Benedict Cumberbatch makes an excellent villain and the unexpected role reversal between Kirk and Spock in a mirror image from a certain iconic scene from the earlier movie was a brilliant stroke.
I can't say too much without major spoilerage, so just go and see it. I think we're probably going again next Wednesday as it seems to a be a pretty slow week next week for anything new and exciting to watch.
