Not Great, But Not Bad

Rating: 6/10 (5 May 2013)

After having seen IM3 last weekend I thought it was at least as good as the first, but better than the second one. It was about the same as The Avengers. What some of the reviewers fail to remember is that the studios make movies to make money. Explosions, special effects and (or) stars sell tickets, therefore making money. Star Trek The Motion Picture is a perfect example. The trekkers, myself included, wanted the reunion of Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the rest. The special effects and sets pushed Star Trek beyond the boundaries of TV. It wasn't a very good movie but people went to see it for the stars and special effects and it made MONEY!
