Star Trek


My husband and I rented Star Trek this weekend. He's wanted to see it for a long time. I personally am not a fan of anything in that realm of fantasy- no Star Trek, Stars Wars, or Lord of the Rings ( I know it's not the same, but still fantasy). It turned out to be an interesting, well done movie, but I still didn't thouroughly enjoy it. As I was watching it, I figured out why. I don't like all the fighting that goes on. I do watch movies with war/fighting, but they are stories that are based around real historic events, like WWI, WWII, Civil War, etc. And even in these movies, I still can't handle watching every fight seen; it's just too violent sometimes. I don't like that in Star Trek, and other movies like it, there is fighting just to fight. It's not based on any true event that happened. They are just movies that involve wars between groups, ususally for some dumb reason ( at least in my opinion). So that's why I don't like these types of fantasy movies. They are just movies that include lots of fighting, none of which is based off anything real. It's all fake. Not my taste.

  1. Ok, so I've never seen this movie, but as I was reading your post, the most random thought came into my head. I really just love Star Tours at Disneyland..
