Wrath of Khan bumped down to no 2 best Star Trek films
What movie were the other reviewers watching? I'm a 47 year old super Trek fan and I was honestly worried about the franchise after Into Darkness. Pegg, Jung, Lin and the rest of the team knocked it out of the park. This was a fantastic, original, story. Idris Elba was phenomenal and the writers gave Karl Urban's Bones a solid role rather than only the platitudes that were a fraction of what made up Deforest Kelly's Bones. Roddenberry's vision of humanity and coexisting with those different than us was completely restored, and then some. In addition the special effects were not only awesome but original, particularly the Yorktown space station. This movie was well over 2 hrs but felt like 5 minutes. I hope these writers and director come back for another one.
