Boldly Going To Greatness!

Rating: 9/10 (31 January 2017)

SPOILER WARNING I'm probably going to say this a couple times, but here we go. This movie is great. The new take on Khan is amazing, as it really highlights the war criminal part of his character. Instead of being cheap and copying Wrath of Khan, it took one of the best sci-fi villains of all time and used him in a new and compelling story. The plot twists are a bit predictable, but that doesn't change the fact that they're great. The death of Pike gives Kirk a personal reason to hate Khan, although it doesn't really make the viewer emotional (they didn't develop the bond between Kirk and Pike properly). Overall, it is a great movie, and I urge you to ignore the critics and watch it!
