Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
Great acting - great cinematography - good Show!
This show is AWESOME, and I'll tell you why in few simple lines.
1.Great Acting. This is (at least in my opinion) first American TV show with the absolutely perfect cast. No weak actors and you can truly see they are the one with their roles. That said, I don't mean US actors are bad. It is just hard for any nation to get a great cast all in all. (Except Great Britain) They are natural, I guess.
2.Great Cinematography. When I watched the trailer for the show, I wasn't sure if it was a movie or a TV show. Camera angles are very effective, lightning is immaculate, CGI on par with the top Hollywood blockbusters (almost;)!
3.Character development. You know, one of the worst things in any movie or TV show, is bad character development, and actors doing senseless stuff, or thing OUT of their character. Example: Klingon dialogue and story development show true potential and dept in the narration.
Well, what do you want me to say more than that in many ways, I understand and sympathize with the Klingons. That's how much the characters are developed.
4. For those of you pointing out that it has nothing to do with the original Star Trek universe, I hear you, and I understand your point of view. But may I point out that everything in this world is subject to change, including this TV show. Would I like to see men in miniskirts, retro hair holders, storyline developing around the subject of black holes or lines like: Sir, we can speed up to 9.8 (something) but it can be very, very dangerous. And my answer is HELL NO! That is so 20 century, and depth in story lines and the more complex plot is needed. Everyone knows nowadays what the black holes are, and everyone can read the speed limiter and realize it is dangerous to go faster than XX. But we ask for MORE detail, more explanation. By my opinion, most of you who stand behind older Star Trek show, hold onto past. When was the last time you watched "Next generation"? Please, just get the first episode of the show, and honestly, tell me that you can watch it to the end?
So far, to my knowledge and opinion there are only a couple shows with quality as Star Trek "Discovery", and if you like those, I wholeheartedly suggest that you give a chance to this one too. And I watched many many TV shows.
Those shows are: Stranger Things Game of Thrones Sherlock Holmes (New one with Benedict, although the old one is great too) and to a certain extent American Horror Story
I am giving it 8/10, instead of 9 only because I sympathize with the people, who do not appreciate such a huge change in storyline, costumes, and everything else for that matter.
