Review.

Not a huge Star Trek person, that would be my mother but then again even she didn't see all the Easter eggs except for maybe one. But I heard that after the last two entries in this series of films they tried to make something that would please both trekkies and the moving going public.

The USS Enterprise crew explores the furthest reaches of uncharted space, where they encounter a mysterious new enemy who puts them and everything the Federation stands for to the test.

When the crew members abandon ship they land on a planet where they become a pair of odd partners. Spock and Bones, Kirk and Chekov, Mr. Sulu and Ahura, and Scotty and Jahala. Jakhala is not a member of the enterprise but is found on this mysterious planet and wants to escape with another ship.

Anton Yelchin was more frequently in the film and is sorely missed after his passing earlier this year. Everyone in this series of Star Trek films has done a pretty great job at making these characters there own in this series. But it is in this film were Chris Pine finally earns the role of Captain Kirk.

Stark Trek Beyond has been named one of the top 5 Star Trek movies and while I haven't seen many of the others I have no doubt that this version of Star Trek is going where no Star Trek series has gone before. I'm giving Star Trek Beyond a five out of five.
