I didn’t even know there was a premiere in London on Wednesday, but there we have it.
Highlights: the person who saw the movie described it as “fun,” “silly,” and “Guardians of the Galaxy meets Fifth Element meets Mission: Impossible”.
There’s also a full, recorded-from-the-audience Q&A with Michelle Yeoh and Robert Kazinsky.
My main worry is the glorification of illegal intelligence activities, contradicting the message of Deep Space Nine. If the movie can handle that barrier, fun and silly sounds great.
Yeah…I think a lot of that will depend on what the actual plot of the thing is, and they’ve been keeping a surprisingly tight lid on that.
The covert mission to destroy Cardassian weapons that Starfleet Intelligence sent Picard, Crusher, and Worf on in “Chain of Command” was probably illegal, but I never hear people complaining about it.

I have a feeling I’m gonna be like “This was a good sci fi movie, but should it have been a Trek movie?”
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.
