A surprise attack in outer space forces the Enterprise to crash-land on a mysterious world. The assault came from Krall (Idris Elba), a lizard-like dictator who derives his energy by sucking the life out of his victims. Krall needs an ancient and valuable artifact that's aboard the badly damaged starship. Left stranded in a rugged wilderness, Kirk (Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto) and the rest of the crew must now battle a deadly alien race while trying to find a way off their hostile planet.

Critics Consensus

Star Trek Beyond continues the franchise's post-reboot hot streak with an epic sci-fi adventure that honors the series' sci-fi roots without skimping on the blockbuster action.

A fun popcorn movie that highlights the value of teamwork and a good playlist (priceless core values in life).

National Newspaper Publishers Association

The result is a taut piece of filmmaking, with perfectly choreographed action scenes and a rapid-fire pace that only leaves time to gasp for air

The best thing about Beyond is that it remembers that the core strength of Star Trek is the camaraderie and friendship of the Enterprise's leadership unit.

Rated: 3.5/4

Star Trek Beyond isn’t a bad film by any means, but its contrivances and off-focused writing stifles the film’s momentum and kills all continuity from the previous two films.

Rated: C+

Beyond rounds out the current Star Trek trilogy with an entertaining adventure bolstered by strong performances and fun action. The central space station is beautifully realistic, as is the planet that takes up the second act. The villain is sympathetic to a fault since he and his crew were abandoned in the far reaches of space. This element makes Idris Elba's character not just a one-dimensional antagonist.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Not groundbreaking, but a breezy and enjoyable sci-fi romp that understands the ensemble dynamic at the heart of Star Trek.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom
