I’ve been a bit slow seeing it and I was initially pretty sceptical at the idea of a re-cast Star Trek movie but after actually seeing the film I’m impressed. When James Bond was rebooted the result was a decent film but one which decided to jettison all that had gone before. It’s not that I found the idea of the man who faced Dr, No during the Cold War being the same … [Read more...]
