Star Trek Beyond (July 22)
Star Trek was good. Star Trek Into Darkness was not. Thathnkfully, J.J. Abrams moved to greener, more War-like pastures (and knew better than to continue there on into The Empire Strikes Back-Wrath of Khan parody he attempted last sequel). Now, we are graced with Fast & Furious director Justin Lin’s take on a Simon Pegg and Doug Jung script, set during the Enterprise’s five-year mission, that finds our crew stranded on an alien world and antagonized by Kraal, a prosthetic-heavy Idris Elba. This franchise is looking for a little bit of redemption after the four-years of Is-Khan-In-It? for the last sequel backfired spectacularly. Can it grow its box office or is it set on a course of diminishing returns?
