Summary It's been eight years since Star Trek Beyond, the best of J.J. Abrams' three Star Trek movies, was released. When the movie was released in 2016, I wasn't particularly excited, given the disaster that was Star Trek Into Darkness. Still, I trooped along to my local multiplex on opening night, hoping that, finally, this would be the Chris Pine Star Trek movie that managed to capture the spirit of Gene Roddenberry while also being an accessible summer blockbuster.
Related Star Trek Beyond Ending & Why No Sequel 7 Years Later Explained Star Trek Beyond set up a sequel for Chris Pine's Captain Kirk and the Kelvin Timeline crew, but it's 7 years later and we're yet to see Star Trek 4. Star Trek Beyond was dedicated to the memory of Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home director and Spock actor, Leonard Nimoy.
I Wish We’d Got More Star Trek Movies Like Beyond It finally allowed Chris Pine to step out of William Shatner's shadow. Star Trek Beyond was the movie I wanted when J.J. Abrams rebooted the timeline back in 2009. It told a fresh story, with familiar characters, retooling Star Trek for the cinematic landscape of the mid-to-late 2010s. That's what these movies should have been doing from the beginning, rather than getting hung up on existing Star Trek lore.
