I saw it the first time in IMAX preview on Wednesday and left feeling uncomfortable about it. Acting was great, spot on even. But something was weird. Saw it again yesterday in regular 2D and had a much better experience. Everything felt better. Still some poor moments, but its Trek, so love it I will.
