Very strong story about what is important in life. The final song "Good Day" by Paul Westerberg is beautiful. I actually downloaded it to my favorites play list. I highly recommend this episode. You will not forget it. Make sure you have a box of tissues handy.

I saw this movie the first time by accident while surfing through channels and thought it was a horrible, disjointed mess. However I was intrigued by the music. Great soundtrack, like nothing I had ever heard before. Was searching for information on the music and started reading about the movie plot and the symbolism involved so I decided to re-watch the film with that perspective. The movie was very good but felt I missed a few things. On my third viewing I purchased it because I liked it so much. Kevin Durand was excellent! The chemistry between his character, Skellig, and Khara was really good as well. I would love to purchase the soundtrack but unfortunately it is unavailable at this time. Give this film a chance....it is truly unique. I wish they would make a sequel.

Although JJ Abrams chose to throw Star Trek cannon out the window (wish he didn't but it's done) the story is fast paced and I liked it. The characters have good chemistry and it made me remember how it felt watching the banter between the crew in TOS. I agree that it would have been a better movie had it fit with the ST franchise but I am glad we have something Trek related. I gave it a 9 because I enjoyed the movie for what it was. I am looking forward to the next movie (which we be a long time coming unfortunately)! I will be seeing this one again tomorrow.

By the way, Zach Quinto's Spock could be the original twin of Nimoys. It is still uncanny. I loved his portrayal. Everyone is cast extremely well.
