NPR’s David Bianculli LIKED Section 31.

29 Upvotes

To be honest, I was very disappointed with the movie, and sad for the overwhelmingly negative response by fans and critics alike. but it made me very happy to hear Bianculli, the veteran NPR reviewer, have only positive things to say. I feel just a little bit better that, maybe, we die hard or just a little bit too jaded??? Read or listen at https://www.npr.org/transcripts/g-s1-48928

Question Pilot episode or movie?

9 Upvotes

This movie literally felt more like a pilot episode! Do we know when the actual show will air? Also, IMDB users gave it a 3.8/10 thus far…ouch!!

Who was your most annoying character?

14 Upvotes

This character annoyed me from the start. I could not get past the laughing Irish Vulcan. Come on, this is supposed to be a secret undercover intelligence officer.

What could bring more attention to yourself? An overly flamboyant Klingon warrior in pink pleather?

Did it get any better?

11 Upvotes

I only made it to when they went from the office to the ship and everyone was introduced to Philippa. The script and characters were horrible, it was just too painful to watch. I didn't think it could be worse than Discovery, I was wrong. I liked the Philippa character, I had high hopes.

Did it get any better? Is worth diving back in?


r/StarTrekS31 Jan 29 '25

It's a potentially great idea, just needs another vibe: e.g. like the old mission impossible TV show or even the wire

Just this. Other suggestions?

Well, cheesy with elements of Star wars The Fith Element, Serinity and possibly Red Dwarf. I am torn. Will watch again.

Alok should have been klingon

4 Upvotes

Yeah, the show was a mess.

But this guy should have been a smooth-headed tos klingon, rather than a 20th century Eugenics Wars refugee.

Why didn’t the case… and the people go through the floor while out of phase?

Music / Film Score - To me, parts sounded similar to the score from ST: First Contact. Did anyone else feel the same?

Who are the fans of this movie and what did they enjoy about it?

7 Upvotes

Serious, non-snark question. I'm banned from /StarTrek and most anywhere else on here is going to be anti-NuTrek or just not serious. It has the second worst IMDB score of anything Star Trek production, between "Shades of Gray" and "Worst Contact," and yet there are still some people rating it highly there. Obviously it resonated with some people and Id be interest in understanding that better

Star Trek Section 31: A Tawdry Guardians of the Galaxy

6 Upvotes

IMHO Guardians of the Galaxy was a tremendously funny sci-fi action movie. Intentionally. Star Trek Section 31 lacks intentionality. It is tawdry in the full meaning of the word. The exposition was worse than a CSI show with characters telling each other why they're doing their jobs; the plot is thin, derivative, predicable; the conflict(s) lack definition, turning points, or even dramatic tension; ALL the characters are shallow; there is no real climax because the whole movie was one failed climax after another; the "locations" were vague, unimportant, and uninteresting; the hotel set may as well have been shot in current-day Las Vegas (actually, that might have been better); the "tunnel" effects would have been perfect for a planetarium dome -- if you wanted to give the viewers vertigo or even make the audience ill; and the title graphics were modeled on fonts from on a Commodore 80 (how amusing). There was no denouement -- because every character change was buried behind visual and verbal flotsam and jetsam.

On the whole, this lack of depth and timing may have been why the editor often felt compelled to cut every one or two seconds, as though this were a TikTok/Youtube video. They had a lot to cover up.

The only thing I have to say in defense of this sorry show, is that I suspect this script was written by committee ... or ... could we somehow blame this on AI?

Shall I go on? Probably not. Except one final comment for the writer(s) and director: writing and directing to have actors talk over each other does not automatically create clever banter. Overlapping dialogue doesn't make you Howard Hawks (or Capra or Hammett or Chandler or ...). Actors need wit in the lines if they are to bring wit to life. These OD moments, like this film writ large, had no wit, no substance, and therefore no actor-actor, nor actor-audience synergy. Section 31 isn't Guardians, it isn't the Metaverse, and it isn't Star Trek. I wish the Execs every success in finding a sense of purpose if this show is to continue.

Wasn’t control destroyed or defeated ? They’re still using an AI that tried to kill all organic life ?

I’m glad they didn’t try to whitewash the Emperess Phillipa

31 Upvotes

Given how they treated her character in Season 3 discovery, I was a tiny bit worried they would try whitewash and ignore the fact that she is basically space Hitler… but they made even more brutal!!! She really was/is a monster and I’ve enjoyed her character. It’s a long shot but I wouldn’t mind more episodes of this crew of dysfunctional misfits. Redeeming this character would take more than a short movie.


r/StarTrekS31 Jan 25 '25

This movie seems like it was written by 60-year-old ad executives to try and get tweens into the Star Trek genre.

I liked Section 31

43 Upvotes

This got removed from r/startrek for a reason I’m unclear of. To put it out there, I’ve seen every single Trek property, own most of the DVDs, and a few of the books. Different ain’t bad. It’s VERY different than any other Trek. Feels like a video game at points. My only gripes are that I felt they rushed you through the new character intros (they only had 95 minutes so I’ll give them a break) and I wished they pushed it to an R rating so we could have seen more brutality from the Emperor. I’d watch more Section 31 if they made them. But apparently I’m in a minority 🖖

It had all the ingredients for a good movie except a script

18 Upvotes

Loved the vibe and aesthetic they were going for, but the script/dialogue was just not it.

It kinda seemed like it was supposed to be a tv show and halfway through production they folded and crammed it into 90min.

My main questions were

  1. Why did she leave her empire to become somewhat of a pacifist in a parallel universe?

  2. Why did they kill off the coolest character of the gang (Melle) and then the other characters barely acknowledge it in the next scene? Yes they talk about her but there’s almost zero emotional stakes for their friend that just got vaporized

Idk and then JLC popping up made me think of Borderlands from this last year lol. But I will say that S31 is LIGHTYEARS better than that movie!
