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?
