To elaborate, the past few weeks we've already seen Ironman 3, Oblivion, Olympus has Fallen, The Croods, and even...Saving General Yang. So the latest movie that we've just seen is Star Trek: Into Darkness. And we're already looking forward to catching Fast and Furious 6 this weekend!! Can someone please find us a cheaper date night activity??
At the mention of Ironman I have no choice but to gush about him. I really love Ironman he's like my favorite superhero EVER!! Idk if it's the fake technology of the suits or how badass he is, but mostly I think it's just because it's Robert Downey Jr hahahaha. I loved all the suits in this latest movie and I can't wait to see him in Avengers 2!! He's just so cool and I wish he was my brother or something. So he'd have no choice but to protect me and love me LOL.
Anyway, I remember when T sent me home after the show I was eagerly proclaiming "Ironman is my favoriteee" when he reminded me that my favorite was actually Wolverine :( oops. I'm sorry Wolverine :( actually I can't decide, I'll probably like Wolverine more after I watch the movie this summer because I love Hugh Jackman and Wolverine also seems less flamboyant and arrogant than Ironman.
Oh man! I apologize for the long digression about my favorite non-existent characters :'( and I thank you for reading it if you did!! Now on to the point of this post....
We loved Star Trek!! Honestly neither of us are avid followers of the Star Trek franchise but I remember T dragged me to watch the previous one just cos he thought it'd be cool, and I remember it was not bad. I also love Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine so there wasn't much resistance from me teehee.
Star Trek: Into Darkness was really good. In terms of plot I think it's better than Ironman 3, and coming from me the Ironman-lover, it's as unbiased an opinion as you'll get!
I generally don't like sci-fi and aliens because they always look very preposterous to me. But I didn't cringe much! The movie was really exciting and though on hindsight we found some loopholes, during the show we were riveted. Like when I watch movies, I think I'm usually so absorbed that I forget my own existence? Do you know what I mean? It's like if someone next to me coughs it'll almost be like I'm jolted out of a dream or something. Maybe that's why I love watching them cos it's like an escape!
T and I also loved the bad guy, played by Benedict Cumberbatch. I feel like he acted really well!!

So anyway, if you're deciding whether you want to watch it, it's really quite good :) it's entertaining and it doesn't matter if you don't know anything about Star Trek because it's quite easy to catch up! Initially when the show started T and I were extremely confused for a good 15-20 minutes, but after that we were totally sold. Star Trek's probably the best show we've seen recently!
