He rules the movie with a single raised eyebrow..." The Guardian - Peter Bradshaw (07/15/2016) "The script injects a welcome strain of humor that's true to the original Gene Roddenberry creation, delivering nostalgia without stiff veneration." Hollywood Reporter - David Rooney (07/15/2016) "If you’re looking for a witty workplace sitcom set on a futuristic starship, the latest exploits featuring the crew of the Enterprise, STAR TREK BEYOND, won’t disappoint." Entertainment Weekly - Chris Nashawaty (07/15/2016) 3 stars out of 5 -- "Lin pulls out all the stops, from new ways to make Federation ships look cool in flight, to a ‘snow-globe’ space station that’s like Escher’s take on Elysium, and there’s a time-lapse shot to stir your soul." Total Film - Total Film Staff (07/15/2016) "There are suggestions of classic STAR TREK style action-plus-characterization-plus-cleverness, and pleasing performances by a cast that has settled into each others' rhythms, as a real-world naval crew would after years of sailing together." RogerEbert.com - Matt Zoller Seitz (07/22/2016) "Because Lin has apparently been a STAR TREK fan since his youth, he is in tune with the earnestness that is one of the TV series’ legacies. At its best, this results in a heartfelt tribute to the late Leonard Nimoy, the original Spock." Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (07/21/2016) 3 stars out 4 -- "Plenty fast and furious. But it also openly gives its heart to what came before; any Trekkie that doesn't choke up at this 50th-anniversary edition is no longer in the club." Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (07/21/2016) "One of the abiding pleasures of STAR TREK, in its old and newer iterations, lies in its balance of stubborn consistency and canny inventiveness. The characters never change, but the stakes can shift wildly from one adventure to the next." New York Times - A. O. Scott (07/20/2016) "STAR TREK BEYOND plays like an episode of the old STAR TREK TV series....It might even feel like you’re back in your rec room, circa 1967, drinking Tang and waiting for the Tribbles." Boston Globe - Ty Burr (07/21/2016) "The movie bounces along, hurtling its heroes over colliding wreckage and into currents of artificial gravity, pausing just long enough for a punchline or a knowing exchange of looks." -- Grade: B A.V. Club - Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (07/21/2016) "Humour, rather than the Enterprise’s warp thrust, is the driving force here. And with a screenplay that was co-scripted by Simon Pegg, the gags tend towards the engagingly nerdy, self-referential variety that will best connect with the fanbase..."
