Star Trek directed by someone who doesn't like Star Trek. There were a lot of people on those movies who really loved Star Trek and it showed through. They're not the best, that's for sure, but I still like them for what they are. However I will say that Beyond is definitely my favorite. Might have something to do with JJ not directing it at all and it feeling like an interesting mix of a TOS episode and Kelvin timeline action/adventure.
Also Idris Elba.
I think Beyond was my least favorite of the newer ones personally, but I'd still put it above the last time I watched Motion Picture so it seems silly to me to trash those while elevating all the old ones.
Star Trek is a universe of things between campy and serious. It's possible enjoy them all, or ignore the ones to don't.
