First I wanna give applause for this one that brings back memories of the past, yet the story itself is not that extraordinary.

This one is pretty much like a prequel since it told us the past life of Captain James T. Kirk. But that's okay. Maybe not all people also understand the future-present time procedure, and also the ridiculous double Spock(s). Silly.

Ummm, some science facts were again ignored, such as the kaboom in space, or that the ship can actually escaped the black hole. Don't you know that regular-sized black hole can even absorb light?

Well, that's why they called it SF. I guess I'm gonna give this movie 8 stars out of 10.
