'Star Trek: More Beautiful Than Death' Review

The second, and possibly last ever, Star Trek Kelvin Timeline novel has  arrived with Star Trek: More Beautiful Than Death by David Mack. Yet,  did this novel capture the spirit of the more bombastic versions of the  Star Trek universe and the voices of Chris Pine's Kirk, Zachary Quinto's  Spock and Zoe Saldana's Uhura, or is just a forgettable tale in the  Star Trek universe? Find out in my review of Star Trek: More Beautiful  Than Death.

Is 'Star Trek (2009)' Really Trek? | RETROSPECTIVE (2 of 2)

So last video, I discussed everything that I think makes Star Trek 2009 a good movie, even a great movie. But there was still one question that I had to answer… Is Star Trek 2009 a good Star Trek movie? And that's an answer that everyone seems to have a different answer to depending on who you ask. For some this is to reliant on canon or not reliant enough on canon. Or it just doesn’t feel like old Trek, feeling too fast or too slow.
