The drubbing of the Michelle Yeoh-led streaming film now holds a dubious title—one that reflects something much more interesting than simple schadenfreude.

    I wouldn’t put it below Nemesis. It wasn’t great but it also wasn’t bad. It felt rushed and more like a heist movie than a star trek movie.

      I have a theory that this movie was cobbled together out of what they could before covid stopped production and before Michelle Yeoh won the Oscar. when it was still a series that’s why it’s effect and adr riddled. They had to build their story out of what they had. I bet they couldn’t afford for her to come back. I could be wrong did she do any marketing for the movie. I only saw kurtzman and the director. When he made that statement that basically undermined the whole premise of star trek.

      I got the impression that it was more meant to be a backdoor pilot for a potential series, which they knew probably wouldn’t fly.
