A crew of Romulans from the future travel back in time in search of Spock (Nimoy), who they believe is responsible for the destruction of their home planet. Their plan is to destroy the planet Vulcan by drilling to its core and creating a black hole as a result of its destruction, but in doing so they change the course of history.

This is possibly the greatest sci-fi movie in recent years. The fresh new cast pay respectful homage to the originals, with Urban in particular doing a fine job as McCoy, whilst giving new dimension to the characters and the franchise. This isn’t just for Trekkies, this could be enjoyed by anyone who loves action movies laced with comedy, A great addition to the franchise.
