Freckles & Doubt

I enjoyed it because it hit all my big brash blow things up action button, and because I would listen to Benedict Cumberbatch read the phone book, so was able to ignore most of the actual words! I was very aware though that if I were to take my 3d glasses off and put my feminist lenses in, I would have had to have a very different reaction. Two female characters only, who don't actually ever speak to each other, let alone over anything other than a man...one of whom strips to knickers and PUSH-UP BRA on a spaceship??? Oh, and the Kirk/Spock goes beyond pandering, beyond subtext. Uhura complains Spock is emotionless, he explains he doesn't dare feel after the destruction of his planet... until Kirk is irradiated to death and Spock suddenly turns into raging weeping emo guy! Yes too to the tribble. It was remarkably untroublesome, sadly.
