The sequel to the ambitious J.J. Abrams Star Trek is just as fun, if not, more so than it's 2008 predecessor. It is fast paced, action packed, funny, scary, dark, and chock full of great acting defining fantastic character moments. The only flaw is the film's lack to pause a moment once the action gets going, denying the characters a chance to grow, grieve, or even breathe. In the end, it's a joyous ride and the plot holes and minor nit picking are greatly overshadowed by on heck of a fun time at the movies.

Iron Man 3 (2013)

I enjoy Shane Black as a writer/director. Robert Downey was fantastic. But I have to say the handling of the character of "The Mandarin" was a huge let down. This was a comic book rivalry that was up there with Batman/Joker, Superman/Lex Luthor, Wolverine/Sabertooth, Magneto/Professor X. I don't want to ruin it for anyone who has not seen it. But know the Mandarin was not done well. At all. Still, Iron Man 3 is a decent popcorn film that was elevated by Downey's performance (and Black's witty writing), had elements of WOW laced throughout, but overall, just didin't finish with the punch I'd hope for. The scene at the end of the credits was fun, but now that we've had our Avengers film, it didn't have the excitement or buildup as the other hidden post credit clips had. Overall, meh. Good. But far from great.
