1960s plot, 1970s special effects, 1980s acting.

Rating: 1/10 (19 May 2013)

This is my first review and the easiest one I'll ever write.
Three words . . .what a pile !! I had the good fortune to see Star Trek Into Darkness last week and, although there is no direct comparison, as an action movie this sits around 500 rungs below on the entertainment ladder.
I honestly thought I'd been transported back to the 1970s. The dialogue was absolutely abysmal, the so-called action poorly choreographed and the special effects were so cheesy that Stan Winston would be spinning in his grave.
I expected better (a LOT better) from a decent cast list and I could go on for hours about the shortcomings of this movie.
One upside . . .it only ran for an hour and a half - which was an hour too long for me. No, actually it was an hour and a half too long.
Utter tripe. And the only reason I added a spoiler warning was because I'd hate to rob the film industry of a few bob from anyone who actually wants to see this drivel.
