As you guys know, I'm not a big Star Trek fan. I'm not a hater,
it's just that this franchise has never appealed to me for
whatever reason. With that said, the Reboot and the movies that
have followed have surprised me in a way I never thought. Star
Trek Beyond is a solid flick. I thought the pacing was great.
Fantastic set pieces and well-timed humor that actually had me
laughing. Props to Simon Pegg on co-writing the script. I had no
idea that he wrote this until the end credits rolled. Loved the
idea of using contemporary music (Public Enemy's Fight The Power
and Beastie Boys' Sabotage) to great effect in their respective
scenes. At first it was very jarring, especially Fight The
Power, because it came out of nowhere and was definitely out of
place. But once you accept this, it makes Sabotage really work
when it finally hits. Definitely worth a Rent. I'd definitely
watch this again if I came across it channel surfing.
