Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan

What would you do if you accidentally defeated a race of genetically advanced humans who are bent upon subjugating mankind to their whims and fancies? Logically one should obliterate them. But James T. Kirk (William Shatner) nobly leaves them stranded in a deserted planet. Now their leader Khan is back seeking vengeance with disastrous consequences for the Starship Enterprise. And to think this was one of the better Star Trek films...

Star Trek

James Kirk (Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto) and company are young green horns setting foot for the first time on an Enterprise Starship. Faced with the threat of Captain Nero (Eric Bana) and his futuristic ship, the crew have to dig deep into their future to pull themselves out of this one.

Expectation did not come into the picture for someone who does not bear the weighty past of the Star Trek. Yet the film felt more Star Wars than Star Trek.
