In the latest instalment of the ‘Star Trek’ franchise, ‘Into Darkness’, Jim Kirk (Chris Pine) and his crew are sent to observe a planet but not interfere. There’s a volcano, Spock (Zachary Quinto) has a plan. It works, but Kirk loses his ship and Spock is reassigned.
A terrorist attack changes everything; reunited, the crew of the Enterprise are sent to catch the terrorist, Khan (Benedict Cumberbatch). It’s not going to be as easy as they think and the weapons they have been given to do the job hold a terrible secret; there are much deeper game in play. However it turns out none of the characters nor the Federation will be the same again.
The film explores what it means to be human, the moralities of war and peace.
It is a great film, the acting is superb and the story entertaining. I saw it in 2D and it was an incredible experience. Go see it!
