    The final Trek movie I hadn’t seen and seeing as this was a notorious one, I expected to be let down massively. Luckily, this was just merely okay!  Hardy, who was an unknown at the time, really acts his guts out (quite literally), and there are some wonderfully touching moments, especially surrounding Data. Sure, it was quite dour, more focussed on action and did not have any classic “trekking” in it, but as a tragedy about a conflicted man featuring beloved characters, I think it is decent.

    Touching from the get-go in a subtle manner, using a unique way of storytelling that almost never feels gimmicky and presenting a twist at the end with precisely enough foreshadowing, gracious filmmaking that should be applauded to be sure.

    This was in no way good, but it was also absolute perfection.
