Another great Star Trek

Rating: 9/10 (17 July 2013)

Bring a long time Star Trek fan, I'm very pleased to see this kind of reboot for the franchise. This movie, Star Trek into Darkness, ranks as one of the best. The main thing I love about this movie is the story. The story line about Star Fleet and their need for Khan display a dichotomy of Star Fleet that parallels the early movies in the franchise that links it back to the Undiscovered Country and the original movie with Khan. It also explores what hatred does to a man showing that Marcus has ill regard for his daughter and is only concerned for is own personal goals.
Watching Kirk and Spock's characters to continue to develop is also another great part of this movie. Assuming their roles and putting slight twist that still resonate the earlier movies.
With a story like this, it makes a movie easy to watch over and over so you can always find things that helps relate other parts of the movies together.
The one thing I didn't like was USS Vengeance was a bit over the top, little bit too big and powerful. I get the point, but a bit over board.
Over all, I could go on forever here, but great movie. Can't wait for the next one. Someone please slap some since in JJ and get him back over here to complete this series!
