Star Trek into Darkness



Star Trek into Darkness, 2013. A terrorist attacks Starfleet.

Directed by J.J. Abrams. Written by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman & Damon Lindelof, based on a TV show by Gene Roddenberry. Starring Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto & Benedict Cumberbatch.

Concept: 0/4 (Terrible). Ask just about any Trek fan what's wrong with most of the post-Wrath of Khan movies, and there's a very good chance you'll get a synopsis of Star Trek into Darkness.
Story: 1/4 (Bad)
Characters: 1/4 (Bad)
Dialog: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Pacing: 3/4 (Good)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: 3/4 (Good)
Acting: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Music: 4/4 (Great)
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). It's reasonably entertaining, especially if your expectations are low. It's not exactly a movie, though - more a giant homage to other movies. There isn't a single thing anywhere in it that even pretends to be original.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.0/4 (Indifferent)
