A very satisfying summer blockbuster

Rating: 7/10 (17 May 2013)

The movie is everything you could expect from a sequel, popcorn, sci-fi film. I will say that this one of those rare gems of a sequel that is just as good as the first. The lens flare is still there but still... Even for the non-Trekkie this movie is very enjoyable. Fantastic performances all around. Great direction from JJ Abrams. And Great cinematography, the beginning scene is one of the most beautifully shot scenes I've seen all year.
I was a fan of the film but it is not necessarily a film I will be left thinking about much after I have left the theater or a film that I will highly recommend. I will however recommend it for a hot summer night when you have ten dollars and nothing to do.
Star Trek Into Darkness is the definition of a summer blockbuster.
