It may as well have been II. Paramount could have asked any random Star Trek fan to write a fanfic script based on Kahn in the new parallel universe. That's basically what happened in this movie. No new characters or villains. Lines upon lines of dialogue STRAIGHT UP lifted out of Wrath of Kahn. The same plot points. Not to mention the tendency for this team to make cute references to the old show, as if they think, "Just saying 'Gorn' or 'Tribble' will satisfy the hardcore nerds."
It wasn't as bad as Final Frontier or Insurrection, but it's by far the most uncreative pile of dogshit ever to be found in a Star Trek movie.
Will I watch the new series? I'll check it out. But honestly, I'm more excited for something like Star Trek: Axanar than I am this series.
