I haven't seen a Trek movie since the first reboot. I didn't care for it, although the guy they cast as McCoy looked a lot like DeForest Kelly, which was a nice touch.

I'm an old guard trek fan, so, for me, they are better. But that's all a matter of taste. If you go back and watch the '80s trek movies - skip Motion Picture - it was, um, boring. go straight to Wrath of Khan, Search for Spock (not great, bu is ok) then this film, skip Trek:V, and see Trek VI.
