Release Date: May 16, 2013

Based on the 60s television show "Star Trek" created by Gene Roddenberry

While I'm not as well versed with the Star Trek universe as any full-fledge Trekkie, I would think my knowledge would be enough to get me by. I've seen a good amount of episodes from the original series, and I've seen just about all the films. When J.J. Abrams' 2009 reboot/sequel released, I was pleasantly surprised to how non-Trek it was, which wasn't necessarily a bad thing. It was polished, action-heavy and surprisingly funny, and I loved it. All my Trekkie friends seemed to have liked it, and those I knew who weren't fans, became fans. Enter Star Trek Into Darkness, the follow-up to one of the most successful and highest rated movies of 2009. So how was it? For the most part, it was a lot of the same.
