Maybe I liked it cuz I had nothing to compare it too?
I liked it; just felt like it was missing something. I dunno. Hard to explain. and if you watch any previous Star Trek movie, make sure it's the Wrath of Khan. although it's 30 years old, it's regarded as the best Star Trek movie and Ricardo Montalban is ing awesome. and if you really wanna get nuts, you can watch the old ass episode that introduced Khan.
As the last person in the universe to see this I will agree with the others who said there just seemed to be something missing this time around ... and I can't figure out if taking the death scene from ST2 and reversing basically everything was brilliant or smacked of desperation. There was never any doubt that you-know-who's blood was going to save the day.
It was pretty damned amazing that an Enterprise with so many freaking holes in it was able to do anything other than break into itty bitty pieces once it found itself in the atmosphere.
And the Carol Marcus "don't look at me in my undies" scene was a pretty blatant appeal to the pubescent male audience.
I liked it, but in the original, which i haven't seen in years, wasn't Khan mad at Kirk for stranding him on some planet?
Yeah. honestly they should never have killed Kirk..they should have probably almost killed Scotty...but he lives of course...beamed out by Chekov at the last second...classic Star TrekST2 and reversing basically everything was brilliant or smacked of desperation.
From what I recall, he was put on a planet with the rest of his crew that was pretty nice. But then another planet in that solar system exploded and ed up the planet Khan was on, turning it into one big desert. I haven't seen the original tv episode in years but I think Kirk said he'd check up on him but of course, Kirk never did lol
