The drubbing of the Michelle Yeoh-led streaming film now holds a dubious title—one that reflects something much more interesting than simple schadenfreude.

We are deeply past anyone currently in charge of the franchise understanding it and now they are just pushing all the generic buttons for scifi movies hoping to get a mass audience appeal blockbuster.
It's a travesty full of lens flairs and absolutely horrible anti-human dialogue. Not non-human as that would imply the filmmakers realized there are supposed to be interesting aliens in Star Trek, anti, cause it makes you less human if you try to think about it.
Fuxking gag me with an omega level super weapon bio agent apocalypse device.

Ok. Now I definitely decided that this is the first ST movie I won't waste time on.
Never thought I'd see the day.
- Honestly it's a movie about stuff and occasionally has some star trek sounds and maybe some music once in a while.
  It has very little that makes it star trek in any sense.
  The equivalent is Ford 150 branded deodorant stick. It's technically labeled as if it has something to do with Ford trucks, but it's deodorant for your arm pits.
  Add all the other issues with the movie on top of this starting point.
- It's bad and not in an enjoyable way,, maybe it would work better as a theme park ride.
- I mean, it's pretty fuckin' bad, but that being said it's basically a 2-part pilot for a show that will never be made, which helps sand down a few of the roughest edges in my estimation. It's not completely unwatchable and has a few mildly interesting ideas and designs.

Section 31 remains in the shadows

They left out Enterprise!

I was talking to a friend and recommended year one and they mentioned its low rotten tomatoes rating. I thought it was hilarious.
