Mildly entertaining

Rating: 4/10 (20 May 2013)

My wife won free tickets to see this. We are both Star Trek fans. Perhaps me a little more. I would have to say I was a bit disappointed in this movie. It had good special effects albeit a lot of movies do now. I think that maybe the story line was a little weak. We all know the characters and I think they spend too much effort rehashing the past. How many times do we need to have Bones say "Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor! Not a ______".
Given the name of the movie, I was hoping that the movie would be a bit darker that it was. They really didn't go "into darkness". Most of the movie took place on an Enterprise that was floating in space. Movie just left me flat.
