'Star Trek' was released in 2009 and was a reboot of the Star Trek franchise. Urban stars alongside Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and Eric Bana. The film reinvented the Star Trek world, making it much more appealing to new audiences whom previously were not fans of Star Trek. The also includes a cameo by Leonard Nimoy as Spock. The film is brilliant, it has a compelling story, some amazing space action sequences, some hand to hand combat sequences along with some nice little references to the original series and films. McCoy was originally played by DeForest Kelley and his incarnation is fairly iconic within the Star Trek universe. Urban's incarnation of the character may not get a lot of screen time compared to other members of the cast, but he clearly defines himself as his own character, he has some of the perks that come with the character, but he also makes McCoy his own. I can't wait until next year for the sequel, because the first one was so good and the cast was flawless.
Even if you aren't a fan of the franchise, I would highly recommend giving this film a try, it would a lot of people over to science fiction back in 2009. Even if you just like a good action flick, then this film is the one for you. I'm giving 'Star Trek' a 9.5/10. It was missing something, something tiny, I'm not even sure what it is. It is nearly the perfect movie.
