Star Trek has certainly never shied away from “fun and silly” before. I think it’s good to have different flavours available.
As long as I enjoy this thing, it should be enough for me.

the person who saw the movie described it as “fun,” “silly,” and “Guardians of the Galaxy meets Fifth Element meets Mission: Impossible”.
I have a feeling I’m gonna be like “This was a good sci fi movie, but should it have been a Trek movie?”

Of the previous Trek movies, we have:
A deliberately ponderous sci-fi epic
A submarine story fueled by revenge
A crew who risks everything to save one friend
A reunion special with a “save the whales” message front and center
An ego project with ambition
A political/spy thriller
A crossover for the fans
A zombie movie
A long episode of TNG
The second movie again but worse
A reboot with plot holes
A misunderstood action flick
A Fast & Furious movie
So how is this “not Trek” while all of those are Trek?
