2 hour move that is 1:20 too long

And that is because there was only enough script and plot for a 40 minute TV episode.
The rest of this thing is just lots of special effects and absolutely pointless running around.
Too be fair, the original series had a number of episodes that were below par. But at least they tended to be presented in a disciplined and thoughtful way.
In this pile of dung we get lots of sound, lots of flash, and lots of energy -but it is like firework that falls over and fizzes instead of shooting spectacularly in to the air.
Kirk is a shadow of the man from the 2009 movie. Bones is portrayed well but has no meaningful dialogue; just a series of clichéd outbursts.
The last third of the movie is a pointless waste of time. despite having Kirk, Spock, McCoy and Bones this is not Star Trek. It is more of a muddle of X-men and Star Wars for children with A.D.D.
Time to go and watch Wrath of Khan.
