The thing I liked most about the first of the last Star Trek movie is that it hit the ground running and didn’t let up. It never slowed down enough to let the viewer get bored. I hope they keep it up with this one.
Which, of course, is directly opposite of the original series and the subsequent series. They were generally slow paced and had only a small amount of "action". The last movie was too much. There was very little story just a lot of somewhat connected "action".
