Alle Branchenpäpste einig: J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek" ist gelungen und wird ein Hit
schwanenmeister, 18:00h
Die Fakten:
Dt. Kinostart: 7. Mai
Budget: 150 Mio. Dollar
Cast: Simon Pegg, Eric Bana, Winona Ryder, Karl Urban, John Cho, Leonard Nimoy, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto
Specials: Großes Star Trek-Vorglühen auf Kabeleins. Der Privatsender zeigt noch mal alle zehn Vorgänger. Ich empfehle gesondert das Meisterwerk "Zorn des Khan" und die charmante Screwball Comedy "Zurück in die Gegenwart".
Und das denken die privilegierten Filmkritiker der amerikanischen Branchenblätter:
"Blasting onto the screen at warp speed and remaining there for two hours, the new and improved 'Star Trek' will transport fans to sci-fi nirvana. Faithful enough to the spirit and key particulars of Gene Roddenberry's original conception to keep its torchbearers happy but, more crucially, exciting on its own terms in a way that makes familiarity with the franchise irrelevant, J.J. Abrams' smart and breathless space adventure feels like a summer blockbuster that just couldn't stay in the box another month." (Todd McCarthy, Variety)
"Putting a much-loved but over-the-hill vehicle back in shape takes more than a new battery and a lick of paint. It demands a full-bore refit, and that's exactly what J.J. Abrams has given 'Star Trek'."
(Ray Bennett, Hollywood Reporter)
"JJ Abrams injects a gigantic dose of energy into this long-running franchise to bring it roaring back to life with an immensely satisfying Star Trek prequel. Going boldly where many have been before, the talented film and TV-maker hardly puts a foot wrong in his quest for renewal, creating a new mythology complete with pin-up stars, invigorating humour and juicy on-board melodrama. Destined to be the summer's first and one of its biggest global hits, Star Trek essentially paves the way for a brand new series of films and will keep Paramount in summer tentpoles for years to come."

Wenn das so weitergeht, kann das fertige Produkt nur enttäuschen. Wenigstens hat noch niemand den Film zum besten des Jahres ausgerufen. ;)
