The New York magazine states that the movie is a combination “reboot” and religious revival, the Grail and Da Bomb. “It symbolically resurrects the dead and sets a course for the stars — a five-year mission that will introduce fantastical alien races and generate fantastical amounts of money. With a Star Wars picture looming, Abrams is ready for his own Vatican-like country — with a cathedral for Comic-Con conventions,” the magazine expressed about the movie in its review.
