Witty adventure for crew of Star Trek's Enterprise
HOT on the heels of Iron Man 3 comes another superior summer blockbuster with a well-crafted story that never loses sight of the human interest amid the spectacle.
Star Trek Into Darkness is an exciting, witty adventure for the crew of the Enterprise with a strong cast including Benedict Cumberbatch as the ice-cool villain who is a lot more lethal than his fondness for moody posing suggests.
Cumberbatch effortlessly commands the screen in his big Hollywood debut, extremely well cast as the warped brainbox always one step ahead of his enemies.
Verdict: 4/5
