   I've just seen "Star Trek" in IMAX. I liked the film, but I wouldn't   
   necessarily recommend seeing it in the IMAX format. The scenes in space   
   looked great, but it seems that the director is quite fond of extreme   
   close-ups. That may the OK for regular sized movie screens, and it may   
   play well on DVD. But on a big IMAX screen, those close-ups produced   
   Mount Rushmore sized heads with pores large enough to shoot basketballs   
   into. In this format, each actor's five o'clock shadow became quite   
   apparent. After seeing so many bad shaves up close, I dubbed the film   
   "Star Trek: the Wrath of Razor Burn".
