If someone said I had to watch a Star Trek film right now I'd chose Wrath of khan, voyage home and first contact over Into darkness... That film gets worse every time you watch it or even think about it.

I've not seen Beyond yet (damn Irish weather stopped that last week)

But if you think of a few things about Into Darkness it just gets worse

The scene where McCoy bought the healing and revival abilitys of Khans Blood to the attention of the other members of the Crew.... why was he doing that? it was during a battle sequence they were just after getting ripped apart by Robocops giant secret ship (that he has a model of on his desk in star trek HQ), why was their chief medical officer doing blood tests on a tribble rather than the hundreds of dying crew? Sure JJ had to inject the reincarnation possibility into the movie somehow, but was then the best choice?

And why was the tribble on the table perfectly when kirk died for McCoy to see it come back to life.... every single thing on the ship was flipped over hundreds of times on it's fall to earth, the whole crew was bounced from wall to wall... but the dead tribble on the tray managed to remain still in the same place Bones injected Khan blood into it? Does Khans blood also have inertial dampening properties?

Also you have the fact of how they were able to use the Cryo pods to freeze/Defrost Kirk when he dies, even though earlier they were not able to do anything with the pods to get the crew out of them but with just 4 button presses she can calibrate the pod to freeze Kirk? No.

Also why send Spock after Khan to get his blood.... They literally remove an Augmented human from a pod to put kirk into it... use that augments blood... or ya know one of the other 70 of them you have on the Enterprise, why does it need to be Khans?

 

Peter Weller in this movie... he is just mirroring the role he played in Star Trek Enterprise... I know not a lot of people seen that series especially not the final season of it, but Weller is playing a different character in the universe but almost identical plot ideas to protect earth with a huge gun.

 

Edit - Dear lord have to mention, the security guard on Robocops ship, he is the worst guard ever, it's clear he can even hear Scottys communicator and what is being said on it, why doesn't he react and kill Scotty but instead just stands there pointing a gun at him for almost 10 mins asking him questions about what he is doing there and why the man on his radio is giving him commands to open the door.... even asks him why the radio is counting down, worst, security guard, ever.
