Private Screening
Boldly going where no “Trek” has gone before, this 2009 reboot of the 40-year-old sci-fi franchise tells the origin stories of the beloved crew of the Starship Enterprise. Led by a rebellious pre-Captain Kirk, the film follows Spock, McCoy, Sulu and the entire galactic gang as they first attend Starfleet Academy . But before they can even sign each other’s yearbooks, they’re summoned to intercept an evil time-traveling Romulan (played by Eric Bana) hell-bent on destroying the Federation. Reimagining a cult classic of super-nova proportions is as dangerous as a Klingon with a painstik, but director J.J. Abrams (creator of “Alias” and “Lost”) manages to re-energize the franchise with enough snappy dialogue, twists, and special effects to satisfy even the most nitpicky space-geek.
DVD On Sale November 17th.
