I'll admit, I might be a bit over critical with this post, but I really wasn't that impressed with Star Trek Beyond. Of the 3 latest films, I would put them in this order of preference...Star Trek 2, Star Trek 3, Star Trek 1.
Its the plot. Its boring. They blew up the Enterprise. YAWN! Another mystical gadget with powers. YAWN. Another disgruntled employee. YAWN. Nothing new here. In my opinion, its a step back from the previous film. It just falls short of being really good. There's just something missing I cant put my finger on. Its like the Fast & Furious series. Something's missing. But there are a lot of 'little' things...***Spoiler Alert***like the music chosen to disrupt the Bee Hive mentality and help blow them up is the same song they played when Kirk stole the Corvette as a kid in the 1st movie of this Star Trek Series.
If your only criteria for liking an action movie is things blowing up and mindless violence, then you'll be happily entertained. If you are expecting more...MEH.
Its still enjoyable and Trekkies will still like it as did I. Its face paced, but the action is designed to keep your mind off the fact the plot is boring. Predictable. Already the Blu-Ray/DVD Combo w/digital copy is priced at $12.99 at Best Buy. Last year's Deadpool DVD ''ONLY'' is still selling at $21.99...
Nuff Said.
