Truth. I can not wait for Sherlock 3. If you haven’t seen Parade’s End, it is worth the time.

Thanks for stopping by! Later.

Hi Nedi! Glad you enjoyed this as much as I did. This is one of those rare sequels that is as good as the first movie! I agree that “Chris Pine seems to be born to play James T. Kirk…” though for me, the star here is really Benedict by a long shot! He’s so bad ass but like u said, he’s still got that elegant swagger.

I am with you–it is NOT perfect–but the pacing makes you forget and eventually not care…cleverly done, Mr. Abrams…cleverly done.

And I know I am bringing lots of pre-existing love to the Cumberbatch factor So, unless he was flat out horrible, I was gonna love him. Its amazing how much that plays a part!

Later!

High praise! I will definitely agree it is one of the most fun of the year so far–I will reserve judgement for Best. I think its just as good as the first–and cooler villain always raises the notch…

In the same genre, I am really looking forward to Elysium and Pacific Rim–those look crazy good!

Thanks for stopping by!

Best movie of the year so far for me, but I know some will be disappointed by how it’s just about the same movie as the first, with a cooler villain. Good review Nedi.

Glad to see you really enjoyed it Nedi. I had nitpicks along the way, but it was a rollicking summer blockbuster without a doubt.

I’m not as high on Cumberbatch as the villain (all he did was scowl, and he was “handed” a bunch of pre-existing audeince feelings, emotions. recollections etc when he was given the role ) but he was fine for the film. I think they did a good job interjecting some thinking this time around, and there’s the obvious 9/11 allegory as well. A better film than the first one, no doubt!!

Later!

Very true! They are both master storytellers, for sure. Just sometimes they take short cuts or I should say side tracks?

Always a pleasure–thanks!

Mighty good review!

I like your points about Abrams. I think he wants to be Spielberg Jr. He has a lot of those same nagging annoyances for me (things such as his weird affection for have children curse in his films. Spielberg always had that). But he could always make quality cinematic entertainment and so far Abrams has done that too.
