Star Trek: Into Darkness
The second Star Trek Opus staring Chris Pine serves to expand on James Tiberius Kirk’s rep as a rule breaking cowboy who makes it up as he goes along and his alter ego Spock a logical by-the-book straight arrow. The recycled character Khan bares no resemblance to the Wrath of Khan villain though it broadens the field for the player of Sherlock Homes. The final scenes somehow seem truncated as if the producers decided they’d run out of time and leave the viewer wandering, “just how did we get here?” I don’t like the new Warp take-off streamers. Otherwise the movie blows up real good.
