Star Trek: Into Darkness
C
I’ve decided that I don’t quite hate this movie as much as I did yesterday. The performances are mostly very good and it feels like it tried to be a good political drama and tried to address the issue of whether Starfleet is a union of peaceful explorers or the Space-Navy (the line between the two is blurred sometimes in Trek). That said, it’s still a mess, and The Wrath of Khan retread-y bits (worst offender being the Kirk death scene, of course) still reek of a lack of confidence on the writer’s part.
Anyway, it’s definitely more enjoyable 3/4 TNG-era movies.
