I've never watched any Star Trek except Next Generation, which I kind of liked. I'm surprised it took me so long to watch this because I like so many people in the cast. I think I'm just not that into Star Trek. This was pretty solid, just not really for me.

The fate of the galaxy rests in the hands of bitter rivals. One, James Kirk, is a delinquent, thrill-seeking Iowa farm boy. The other, Spock, a Vulcan, was raised in a logic-based society that rejects all emotion. As fiery instinct clashes with calm reason, their unlikely but powerful partnership is the only thing capable of leading their crew through unimaginable danger, boldly going where no one has gone before. The human adventure has begun again.
