Not just bad Star Trek, but a bad movie as well

Rating: 2/10 (17 September 2013)

a new plot would have been nice. This movie was not very good. awash with plot holes and way too many lens flares ( I assume this was to distract from the bad movie). You spend the hour of the film with a rapid fire switching from one character to the next just so they can all say a couple lines. This gets exceptionally repetitive and boring as no one character really gets to be focused on. Simon Pegg is great as Scotty and Karl Urban stands out again as Bones.. The bad guy eventually shows up but his revenge scheme seems rather muddled and has little payback for him. Not quite sure what he will do after he blows everything up.
This is a very forgettable Star Trek movie, please don't let JJ Abrahms do another and get Joss Whedon to do Star Wars, at least he has original thoughts and a brain.
