Review of Star Trek Beyond (2016) by Mattbrady99 — 23 Jul 2016
Star Trek Beyond may not be the best space voyage for many, but it's a great summer film if you're only looking for a fun silly time at the movies.
The energy, the character's and the bold scope are the things that makes Beyond watchable. Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and the rest of the cast are all fantastic in the roles. And this actually feels like an actual Star Trek movie and not a full on remake like "Into Darkness" was. All thanks to Justin Lin.
If only the editing and the villain was improved then this would have gotten a stronger rating. I didn't think the villain was terrible or anything like that, but it was a waste of Idris Elba. I mean, yeah his motivations are relieved at the climax of what he's trying to do and it kinda makes sense. The villain himself wasn't that interesting to me.
Overall rating: Star Trek Beyond is right up there with "X-Men: Apocalypse" as the most fun I had at the cinema. While I liked the first movie a lot more, I still think this a solid third entry to this new franchise.
Rest in piece Leonard Nimoy and Anton Yelchin. Live long and prosper.
