Story: In Summer 2013, pioneering director J.J. Abrams will deliver an explosive action thriller that takes 'Star Trek Into Darkness.' When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis. With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction. As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.

Likes : Ive got a say J.J Abhams know how to bring a space opera to light with some fantastic cinema visaul special effect's on the big screen.There is a slight twist in the storyline from the original second film as with the character of khan played brilliantly by Benedict Cumberbatch,Khan Noonien Singh is a villain in the fictional Star Trek universe. The character first appeared in the original Star Trek series episode "Space Seed", and then in the film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. In both cases he was played by Ricardo Montalbán, aged 46 in the original series and 61 in the film. He is generally referred to simply as Khan.In "Space Seed", Khan was one of a group of genetically engineered "supermen", a tyrant who was defeated in the Eugenics Wars of the 1990s. These supermen had been bred to be free of either mental or physical defects. Khan had been both the most successful and the most benign of the group, ruling western Asia until he was deposed.Benedict Cumberbatch brought a very cold heart & ruthless evil concept to this role it really showed conviction with he's quote's & threats he made,special the scene with the Klingon's now klingon are surpose to be warriors train in fighting but khan just riped throw them like a knife though butter with a scratch which show how superior khan character is in every way which brough this film its edge.Simon Pegg is just brillant as scotty he got the funny scarcastic humour that real brings out the character more in this version of star trex,Alot of the original actor returned as well,Chris Pine as James T. Kirk, Zoe Saldana as Nyota Uhura, Zachary Quinto as Spock, Karl Urban as Bones, Anton Yelchin as Pavel Chekov,John Cho as Hikaru Sulu,Leonard Nimoy (cameo) Spock Prime, Bruce Greenwood as Christopher Pike, Alice Eve (new actress to the film)Dr. Carol Marcus & Peter Weller as Admiral Marcus bring a well made storyline to a some what intense film.This film will take you on an adventure of a rollercaoster of emotion as this storyline is more personal for kirks character,along with some funny scarcastic humour & wit,aong with some intense nai biting moments this film delivers a well rounded entertaining film.

Dislikes : I was expecting a bit more of a fight with khan's character,specially with the new ship they added with advance weapons & speed i would of expected a good climatic battle ending with the enterprise & the new ship with a head to head battle scene with kirk vs khan but it was a bit of a dispointing ending to be honest but still an entertaining film.

Overall :Good storyline,Great battle scene,Fantastic visual & special effect,a well rounded film.

Rating: 4.7 out of 5 for entertainment / 7.8 out of 10 for visual & special effect/concept
