...introduces himself to Kirk on a transporter full of new recruits, my grin had settled in for good. In terms of casting, Ryder is Abrams' only blunder. John Choo (aka Harold of Harold and Kumar fame) as Hikaru Sulu? Perfection. Simon Pegg as Scotty? Genius. I didn't recognize Anton Yelchin, who makes a charming 17-year-old Chekov, from his role in Hearts of Atlantis but I was mentally clapping him on the back as well...

But these savory moments only serve to make the looming waves of revulsion hit even harder. The ultimate justification of the reader’s journey...
...Here’s what happens: a long-haired Beck, oddly evoking Joni Mitchell, lopes inexpressively around the streets of a black-and-white Los Angeles. But he’s not as isolated as his new urban hippie vibe might lead you to assume—a moddish Anton Chigurh look-alike is stalking him, using the classic reconnaissance techniques of popping out from behind mailboxes and cartwheeling. And what does he do when he catches up to Beck? He hugs him, of course. So does our creepy friend symbolize Beck’s persistent guilt...
