Star Trek: Into Darkness:
Story:
The crew of the Enterprise faces a new threat when the Federation is targeted by Khan, a dangerous individual hellbent on destroying the Federation.
Review:
Several years ago J.J. Abrams introduced us to his version of Star Trek, a faster paced adrenaline rush that introduced a new generation to a series that the older generation loved and respected. Now, the sequel is here, showing us a darker, more thrilling side to Star Trek, while keeping everything that made the first film amazing intact.
I loved Star Trek: Into Darkness. As the title suggests, it truly brings us to the dark side of the franchise with the terrifyingly malevolent Benedict Cumberbatch as Khan. His intensity is horrifyingly real and he is pure evil with his role. Chris Pine is more serious as Kirk, and Zachary Quinto is both very human and robotic as Spock when the time calls for it. Not to mention the countless other amazing performances by the other cast. The effects are surreal, the story is brilliant, and the action is intensely amplified by the equally great soundtrack. This is a film made with effort and intelligence and it shows.
Overall Star Trek: Into Darkness is an amazing film and I now have high hopes for J.J. Abrams foray into the Star Wars universe.
