MD – Star Trek Into Darkness


Wham bam thank you Abrams. Faster than Alice Eve can get her uniform off, STID rattles through the nods and winks to the fanbase universe and the wider generic blockbuster traits to deliver a 23rd Century terrorist manhunt movie. Its a big bag of spacedust  - popping from place to place with aplomb but rarely drawing breath to let us work out where our heads are before another sugar high. Funny and chummy, with a Bond-worthy villain bent on world domination, ultimately it’s as flimsy as the 60’s TV scenery. 

It’s Star Trek Jim but not as we know it.

7/10
