I could go on. Not in the same league as the first part of the reboot. Hopefully Abrams will now be too busy to take a major part in the third entry. BUT still worth a watch. Cumberbatch is by far the strongest element in the film. |
Watched this is 3D at the IMAX yesterday and WOW! What an experience. The visuals are the best I've ever seen in a film and it was a fair bit like being on a rollercoaster ride on numerous occasions... The plot wasn't anything new and Pegg gets a bit irritating but I'll agree that Cumberbatch was excellent. Brilliant experience overall though (the cinema was a full house too), its a film that really makes use of the IMAX's amazing sound and vision capabilities so I would recommend watching it at one if you have one close by. Its visuals blew Oblivion away, even though I rated that pretty highly in that department.
