\"StarTrekIntoDarknessPoster\"<\/a> 1. Star Trek Into Darkness(Paramount, 3,868 Theaters, 132 Minutes, Rated PG-13):<\/strong> And along comes the summer’s second biggest film. Apologies for the late write up for this. Typically, I like these New Release posts to hit before a film opens, and, well, they went and changed the opening date on me. Phooey. So it’s a day late.<\/p>\n

I have to say that I was looking forward to this film a lot. I really like 2009’s Star Trek<\/strong>. I liked the way they set it so that the film was technically in the same continuity as every other Star Trek <\/strong>installment, yet in a separate, alternate universe. It was the filmmakers way of saying, we are going to change some major things here, but really we aren’t changing a thing. That old Star Trek world still exists for you and always will.<\/p>\n

Of course, after reading reviews like FBOL head honcho Rich Drees’s take on the film<\/a>, that enthusiasm has dampened a bit. The way Rich describes the film (and he goes into spoilerish detail, so you might want to see the film first before reading the review if you are put off by spoilers) kind of makes it seem like its going in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n

I will of course see the film…someday…to form my own decisions on it. But I am not in as big of a hurry to do it.<\/p>\n

Does the sequel boldly go where previous installments have gone before?<\/div>\n
