The reaction was positive from AICN, CHUD Dark Horizons, Film School Rejects, Twitchfilm, Cinema Blend and Empire.

Meanwhile the rest of the cast and crew - actor Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Karl Urban, John Cho Eric Bana producer Bryan Burk and director J.J. Abrams were in Sydney, Australia walking the red carpet for the gala premiere at Sydney's Opera House.
