Star Trek: Section 31’s review embargo has ended, and critics are setting their phasers to ‘kill.’ The first-ever streaming-original Star Trek movie is taking heavy damage, with a Rotten score of 31% on Rotten Tomatoes. Only one other Star Trek project has ever received such a low score.

    Its 31% Rotten Tomatoes score puts it behind misfires like Star Trek: Insurrection (55%), Star Trek: Enterprise (56%), and even the much-maligned Star Trek: Nemesis (38%).

      Oh, so I can even more safely ignore this than usual.

      Insurrection was banger.

      Enterprise wasn’t nearly as bad as everyone made it out to be and I’m sorry I took so long to watch it. Just don’t ask me to listen to the opening.

      And honestly I only dislike nemesis because… Well, you know…

        Enterprise certainly had its moments, but the whole Xindi arc was bad. It finally found itself in Season 4 once it shed those shackles.

          For me, it was Archer using any, and every, excuse to talk down to T’Pol. I’m not sure who was writing his character, but I would’ve preferred if they’d gone more towards Picard (TNG) or Pike (SNW), and less Kirk/Sisko. As the first human explorers in that part of space, I would preferred more reverence for what they were accomplishing, and less whining about Vulcans. The other characters were were way more enjoyable to watch

          TNG and SNW captains brought/bring a sense of awe with their exploration of the unknown, Archer just seemed like a kid who’s parents told him he couldn’t have ice cream for dinner

            And they were all too stupid to not see through the Suliban plot

      What ‘Star Trek’ Project Had Worse Reviews Than ‘Section 31’? Longtime Star Trek fans won’t be surprised by this one: it’s 1989’s Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. […] The result: a 23% Rotten score and the rest of the franchise avoiding any reference to it for decades.
