What a snore!

Rating: 3/10 (9 January 2016)

I expected an update since this film is set in the future, and not a prequel. Everything about this movie seemed dated. From the costumes to the music to the spacecraft to the plot points. What a waste 57 bucks to take my family of four to a 3D movie.
It seemed like the old time after school space serials I used to watch when I was in elementary school. Where did that giant budget go? The dialog was stilted. The cinematography was unimaginative. The attempts at humor were weak. I expected more from JJ Abrams!
It seems he was restrained from doing anything different with the original material.
I won't bother seeing the next one.
