    The Undiscovered Country is one of my favorites of the older movies.

    STB was my favorite of the Kelvin flicks as it was the closest to how the original characters acted. However, I was not a fan of the new ship, particularly, the warp nacelles; that bulbous front end just looks...bad. I wasn't crazy about the Engineering deck either; it looks too industrial for my tastes, and those large water pipes didn't help. The Bridge was too cluttered and bright, thanks to JJ's light streak filters.

    As to the Prime movies, I wasn't a STTUC fan also. I'd say STTVH was my favorite, in terms of story. However, STTMP was the best, IMO, regarding sets, costumes, and adhearing to previously established canon; story-wise, it could've been better.

    I thought the kelvin line of films were decent but they were not a replacement for what was out there. Just like you, I did not like the new ship at all, the overall design and the horrible looking nacelles.

    All in all, it's a great attempt at trying to reboot the series but to me I just found it to be an action film with star trek components but maybe that's just me.
