Star Trek: Beyond's user reviews
There?s a brisk sense of invention to the film, and it feels like it is breathlessly told, something that is due in large part to Justin Lin, who has been developing a very particular approach to blockbuster filmmaking. Yes, he?s fine with the big action mayhem that is par for the course with these films, but he understands that the thing that makes any of it interesting is making sure the audience really enjoys spending time with these characters.
Read review Drew McWeenyFun but in a careful way, the film lasts just two hours, but it can seem much longer than that.
Read review Kenneth TuranLin keeps this tense adventure (co-written by Doug Jung and Simon Pegg, who also reprises his role as chief engineer Scotty) from stumbling over its own excess: he knows that any good Star Trek needs wit as well as spectacle.
Read review Stephanie ZacharekThis is all fun all the time, a dizzying carnival of wisecracks, fisticuffs, explosions, chases and truly eye-popping effects.
Read review Tom HuddlestonIt?s better to have a well-made, unapologetic action-adventure like this one than a creepy stab at replication.
