I was able to catch an early screening of Star Trek Into Darkness last night. I really enjoyed J.J. Abrams Star Trek reboot from 2009, so I was looking forward to the follow up.
I purposefully ignored reading rumours and watching trailers so that I would be surprised. About the only thing I knew ahead of time was that Benedict Cumberbatch played the villain.
Well, all I can say is that the Star Trek Movie Curse seems to be back on track. In that although 2009’s Star Trek reboot was excellent, Star Trek Into Darkness was not.
I don’t want to give anything away, but I can say that before the villain had revealed his name, I had already figured out who he was and I was so disappointed.
I’m going to leave it at that. Fans of the original Star Trek movies will probably also be disappointed. Those who have not seen any of the original movies will probably like it a lot more than I did.
