Critics Consensus

Visually spectacular and suitably action packed, Star Trek Into Darkness is a rock-solid installment in the venerable sci-fi franchise, even if it's not as fresh as its predecessor.

4/5
Pulling off the trick of being both irreverent and Trekkie-pleasing, JJ Abrams effortlessly orchestrates massive action set pieces, a galaxy of 'cor look at that' CGI effects and well-modulated character scenes. Go to Full Review
Jason Bailey Flavorwire 06/21/2016
The socio-political commentary of 'Star Trek Into Darkness' is about as sophisticated as you'd expect from scribes Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtman, who also wrote the first two 'Transformers' movies. Go to Full Review

J.J. Abrams once again successfully creates a fast-paced summer adventure that audiences should love. Go to Full Review

Even if all of those ridiculous lens flares annoy the film snob deep down inside, you have to agree that J.J. Abrams has a nose for action and eye for spectacle. Go to Full Review

4/5
It might not hold a candle to the best the franchise has to offer, though it serves as a worthy follow-up to the universe introduced in 2009, thanks to an entirely charming cast and ambitious visual effects. Go to Full Review

Not the best JJ Abrams film, but one that shows him a lot less stiff and delivers interesting ideas. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Laura C 12/05/2022 Love,love this movie!! I love this star trek movie,Chris pine is the hottest capt as James t Kirk! I love Bennedict cumberbatch as khan,he was the best evil villan!! love all the action scenes,best plot ,love this movie! go see this movie! See more Mike D 4d Much better than the first one. See more Mitchell S Nov 13 It's well written, fast paced, with great action sequences and great dialogue!! I'd actually say it exceeds the first movie!! See more Reagan R @ReddRover Nov 8 This movie is melodramatic, peppered with cheap nostalgic grabs, a bombardment of action and the two named women characters speak less than 2% of the movie. But don’t worry one woman randomly strips down to yer underwear. This just isn’t what Star Trek is about. Miss you Picard See more Michelle M Oct 11 This is a must watch! A great Saturday night film which grips you all the way through. Benedict Cumberbatch is stunning he is completely mesmerising in this role and steals the screen with this performance. In addition, Chris Pine and Simon Pegg were made for these roles, I can’t imagine other actors in these roles brilliant performances. Leaves you wishing another film was on the way with this entire cast. Not cheesy and cheaply made like previous attempts this has got meat and bones. 5 ⭐️ See more I Am F Sep 10 I am not a trekkie, but I have never liked this kind of movie. The Story is a mess, the characters are unlikable and the overall experience feels lacking. See more Read all reviews
