I just watched it. It was awesome. I thought J. J. Abrams lost his edge after Cloverfield, But, he still has it.

Effing awesome. In the first paragraph I thought it might have been Inuyasha, but then I got to the Klingon portion and realized just what was going on. Well done my friend, well done.There's this up and coming, headstrong, new starship captain who usually pulls through in the end and cares deeply about his position. Early in the film he ends up destroying the vessel of a female captain and she follows him everywhere to point out his mistakes and possibly make him pay for the vessel he destroyed. But the sexual tensions never resolve. It's later revealed she's the sister of a Commander at a Star Fleet space station near a planet covered in water.
Along the way they pick up this Klingon lieutenant or something who has slits for eyes. He's a bit of a lech, has a thing for human girls, but again it's left unresolved and you get the feeling he was put in for comic relief.
The main character is haunted by feelings of inadequacy from his days in the academy where he and another captain who trained at the same time became rivals, trying to outdo each other. He would always be second best it seemed. This character is a bit of a douche but it's a good twist that the main rivalry in the movie doesn't ultimately come from some classic villain but someone on the same side.
The trio of main characters are pursued by an intergalactic criminal organisation called Team Rocket who at the end of the movie blast off at the speed of light.

Did you ever watch the Pokemon cartoon as a kid?I don't get it....are Team Rocket something to do with Jefferson Starship?
It's awesome, and not solely for nostalgia value either.I still watch pokeymans.
I WANNA BE THE VERY BEST LIKE NO ONE EVER WASIt's somewhat sad that now, 8-9 years later, I'm in college and can still recite every word of the opening theme to that show.
