Don't watch it if you're not a real Star Trek fan, on second thought ?

Rating: 5/10 (13 May 2013)

Saw it in 3D with a real Star trek fan. I hated this movie, he loved it. I was surprise coming home and see so many trekkers disappointed too.
I was never in too Star Trek, Inm y opinion the whole universe is so stupid and so pointless, over the top and exhausting. So I was really surprised how Star Trek (2009) took me by storm. It really came with something different and new, as well as honoring the old stuff. I was happy to see such cool effects again on the big screen, with a great story and characters very believable.
Sadly, Star Trek: into darkness had none of that! It was the plain old bull from the old star trek with different faces. 10 minutes into the movie and I was getting bored and thought I was watching pirates of the Caribbean in space, regretting spending my money.
The plot is overdone, too complicated to follow. The shots gave me a headache, especially in 3D, and character development leading nowhere.
I cant say the acting was bad though, however the lines were poorly written. The cast did a really good job with the work given to them. Simon Pegg was great. His character got some great development, sadly we see too little of him. John Cho was also great, sadly he suffers the same faith as Simon Pegg.
But acting cant save an entire film. The cast are literally loyal to the sinking ship.
If you enjoyed the first movie, and otherwise don't care about Star Trek, Don't WATCH THIS!
