Some of the technology displayed on future earth like Kirk's bike, is absolutely ridiculous. As a wild child renegade, that the character is supposed to be, that's one thing you don't expect.
But the rest of the tech has all the hints of the original sets and look quite authentic but obviously new. But they look so much better on big screen with the special effects that are two decades newer. Watching the ships go into wrap speed is something I particularly enjoyed, especially with the graphics and sound engineering that today's movie technology allow.
The mannerisms of each character as they make, either their initial appearance onscreen or when a particular dialogue is spoken will have to momentarily drifting back to those good old days of pre-cable, Doordarshan moments when, as kids we'd rush to get back home to watch the series. You'll very easily be able to identify with the characters as you reminisce.
The bottom line is, the cast and crew of the film have succeeded in doing exactly what they set out to do, re-device an original and legendary show and make it better than all the other that came in between.
Star Trek is a quick, action-packed movie that wastes no time with too much chitchat, no more than the show did anyway. But someone only recently told me, it's suddenly cool to be a Trekkie and I do believe, he just may be right.
Verdict: Star Trek is a MUST watch of you're a fan and if you've seen just a few of the old episodes, you're going to want to go back and watch the reruns.
