The Guardian’s Jordan Hoffman similarly took to Twitter to voice his excitement and liken Star Trek Beyond to a faithful, self-contained episode of Gene Roddenberry’s original series.
Although Eric’s tweet makes it abundantly clear that Star Trek Beyond doesn’t reinvent the wheel with its narrative, it’s just as clear that there’s a ton of fun to be found within the third installment of the rebooted series.
This shouldn’t come as a huge shock when we consider that he basically did the exact same thing when he revitalized the Fast & Furious franchise with its fifth and sixth installments.
Eric’s not even remotely alone in his assessment of the film.
