This film is, quite frankly, a giant mess. This isn't one whole story about a team of superpowered individuals like The Avengers was, but rather a collection of short stories about a mismatched group of criminals and society misfits.
Captain Kirk and his crew must battle merely to survive, let alone thwart an impending attack on the Federation, and doing so means facing up to their fears, their pasts, their legacies and the very ideals that have taken them to the final frontier.
Being the youngest captain in Federation history has not stopped James Kirk from taking risks, making mistakes and suffering the consequences. But soon a bigger problem rears its head in the form of John Harrison, a rogue agent who single-handedly cripples Starfleet and threatens the safety of the whole Federation.
