Review: So it seems JJ Abrams has traded in too many lens flares for too many closeups. The working title of Star Trek Into Darkness could probably have been Chris Pines Facial Pores. Seriously JJ - there is such a thing as long and middle shots too you know, and whats more - if you use them - when you *do* use a closeup, it has more dramatic effect, just sayin...Anyway, directorial style flaws aside, my big gripe with STID is that its just another sci-fi movie. What always set Trek apart was that Roddenberry created an enlightened future, a refreshing change of pace to most sci-fi, and the conflict therefore had to come from cleverer places. But with this reboot every character is constantly bickering, I frankly left the theater with a headache as if Id just been to a teenage kids birthday party. I can get bickering, and grit, and violence from *any* sci-fi feature, and sadly now it seems like Trek has followed suit and lost its original edge. Its not until the very final minute where a little bit of the original Trek feel is re-established, but for me that was far too little, far too late.Theres some giant plot holes too, if youre actually thinking about whats going on. It seems like Abrams hoped that if he put enough glitz and dazzle on the screen, most people would entirely miss the fact that they are there. I guess his gamble was correct, since the film is currently standing at an 8.4 IMDb score.Its not all bad. Benedict Cumberbatch is an incredible, intense villain and the film is worth seeing for his performance alone. And as with the first, the rest of the cast is exceptional. Theres nothing wrong with the acting, music, or look of this film... just a lot wrong with the script and the tone of the whole thing. If youre not a Star Trek fan, youll likely enjoy it... its big, frenetic, popcorn munching silliness. But if you are a Trek fan, particularly of the quieter explorations of the human condition that TNG did so well, then you might be pretty disappointed.
