Star Trek: Section 31

I thought only Star Wars was captured by Disney, but now it seems they also made a Star Trek movie.

The movie would be a single episode long if they wouldn't explain every obvious thing in detail all the time.

The characters are awful crafted. Just like in these "parodies" (whrere they all love each others very much *winkwink).

Never expected that section 31 would be a clown show instead of a special Starfleet unit.

The longer you watch it, the more brain cells you lose. Don't worry if you watched several cat videos on Tiktok during the movie, they'll explain what you missed every 15 minutes with nice flashbacks. So you can follow the "story" even when you're brain dead.

The visuals are nice but cheap. Reminds me of some low budged independent creations 10 years ago.

It's okay maybe, if you don't expect Star Trek.

I've just wasted 1:35:12 of my time watching something that should not be graced with the Star Trek name. The Section 31 of DS9 and Discovery has been camped up and made into a laughing stock. The plot was at best, paper thin and predictable. The characters were woefully shallow. The whole thing has sullied the Star Trek franchise and cast a dark shadow over the excellent series like Discovery, DS9, OST, and TNG. Who's ever idea this was needs to publish an apology to those of us who grew up with James T Kirk and watched every series through to Michael Burnham.

What makes matters worse is I sat through this train wreck until the end. The only thing I can hop that there are no plans for a sequel.

The only reason to call this a Star Trek movie is because they mention Starfleet several times. The cartoonish characters actually belong on Lower Decks, not in this mess. The story is rushed, the peril ridiculous and you get no time to process anything. Every alien species is brand new, with no chance for character development, other than their simplistic special abilities.

Michelle Yeoh is always good as Philippe Georgiou, but not as the lead character. She needs a moral foil to her narcissistic anrrogance and that's completely missing without someone like Michael Burnham.

This is obviously a pilot for a series that never happened... and that's a good thing. They need to stick with Starfleet stories.

What did I just watch, took me 3 attempts to force myself to watch this tat!

I'm sure Michelle was paid well and good for her, but this was quite a weak showing for her, really phoning it in.

Rest of the "gang" all trying to have banter like like Guardians. But none of the "humour" lands, if it is humour. All quite generic, with little to no character or any development or growth.

Story was written by a child that's had little experience of life and has only heard 3rd hand about Star Trek, as even for nuTrek has little to no feeling of proper Star Trek. Story is shallow, weak and paint by numbers. Guessed most story line within 1st 20 mins. Then had to slog through it.

Such a huge waste of money and resources, from those who pretend to care about the environment.

Kurztman whoes me an hour n half of my life back. The untalented hack.

I can see this movie being passable if it'd just been a standalone movie not attached to the Star Trek brand. It still wouldn't have been good, but a lot of the problems with it wouldn't have stood out as much. It would have just been another generic straight-to-streaming slop movie.

As it is, this sucked. It didn't do anything interesting with the setting, it didn't have a story that could only be told in a Star Trek setting, and it didn't even do all that much with Section 31 as an idea. I'm glad this was never a full season of TV, as was originally planned, because eight hours of this would have been a nightmare.

The nicest thing I can say about this is that at least it's short. 95 minutes is a good length for what this was. At least nobody felt the need to drag it out to two hours, which happens too often with movies nowadays.
