Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine in Star Trek Into Darkness movie

Hey folks.  This movie review of Star Trek into Darkness starts here on Brusimm, but the bulk of the review is posted over on science fiction author Peter Cawdron’s website, Thinking Sci-Fi.

This is a non-spoiler movie review of Star Trek Into Darkness.

Into Darkness is the 2nd movie in the J.J. Abrams reboot realm of the Gene Roddenberry sci-fi franchise.  Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin and John Cho reprise their roles while Benedict Cumberbatch (who has a very cool voice), Peter Weller and Alice Eve add their names to the franchise in one fashion or another.

J.J. Abrams directed and produced the movie off a story written by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman & Damon Lindelof.

But to be honest, the question isn’t if the actors brought their characters to life in an entertaining fashion, (they did). The big question in my mind was if this sequel will fall into the typical sequel realm of so-so, or does it hold up on its own or stand out above the first one?
