Probability of Success:0

Rating: 4/10 (9 January 2016)

Drama is about beating the odds, but lately movies have taken it too far...the last ditch saving of hope becomes compounded to where it isn't dramatic anymore. Of course you get Spock out of the Volcano just in time...3 of the 4 major characters survive the attack on Starfleet (which is ridiculous because as we see with the Klignons, Khan can take out stuff with ease)...disarming the torpedo, more deux ex machina!...flying through space to hit a tiny porthole isn't enough, lets throw in debris! no! lets also throw in Kirk losing his HUD!!...gravity is going wonkers on the ship, lets throw in a last ditch saving by Chekov (dude must be working out to be able to hang on to those two)...the skyfight, you know, just a fraggin bird in the wrong place would have spelled disaster, but you had to throw in both of them jumping from one place to the other! I know about suspension of disbelief, but have maybe 2 or 3 of these, having so many is stupid. That all being said, I think they have done a great job with casting...most of the characters are much more like the original ones than I could have thought. Now on to the next ST movie: Fast and Furious 76 In SPACE!!! ;/
