Has such a great idea that it totally throws away. There is an hour and twenty minutes of padding and lame comedy bits (Scotty doing slapstick? A 57 year old Uhura doing a naked dance? Spock singing “Row, row, row your boat”?) before they get to the meat, traveling across the universe to find God. Brilliant possibilities are quickly ignored to have stuff blow up. Should have been an ambitious disaster, instead of just boring.
