I saw the film last night. All in all not bad, but at the same time there were a few things that got to me. The biggest problem I had was with the whole death scene being a complete rip off from TWOK. That one sequence pulled me completely out of the film. The line between homage and blatant rip off/ fanservice was crossed and cheapened the film. It felt forced and completely out of place as well. The plot was terribly predictable in many aspects and despite the claim that JJ rebooted to tell new stories doesn't wash as there were many times during the show that I thought, "I've seen this film before".
That being said the dialogue was snappy, I am liking the actors more and more, Scotty and McCoy are fantastic. The action was good and fun and I liked BC as the villan. Although I think the Gary Mitchell story would have made a more interesting feature instead of rushing to Khan right away. You know, the whole "Where no one has gone before" instead of "I've seen all this before".
I still think the writers are a bit lazy and that JJ has terrible taste in Starship aesthetics (the Klingon ships are just fugly). But over all I give the film 3.5 stars out of 5.
But more so than the film the thing that bugs me the most is how discussion becomes so polarized lately. The personal attacks for having a different opinion over a film sucks the enjoyment out of talking about them. People who like the film ( and it's not just Trek but most movies these days) just seem to take it way too personally and think that anyone who didn't like it, or parts of it, are somehow out of their minds and are open to being insulted and treated poorly. Yeah, people have different opinions, but liking or not liking something does not give one licence to treat others like crap. It's a movie, that's all. People have different tastes. Lets discuss these things without the personal attacks. Think about it, would you launch into a bunch of personal attacks and insult someones character, ancestry and intelligence because you like tomatoes and they don't? Probably not, at least not in public, you'd look like an ass, right? The same thing applies to personally attacking someone for their taste in pictures. It's just stupid and unnecessary. And it's also pretty Un-Trek, who's core message is unity.
