Really?

The general reception is 65% on Rotten Tomatoes and 55% on Metacritic from the audiences. I think it's rather the usual band of nerdculture hihi praising non-ST fans that give this movie a pass.

Do you honestly believe that the average movie goer goes on websites like Rotten Tomatoes, IMDB, or Metacritic to leave a user review? Of course they don't, much like with game user reviews, which are only left by hardcore gamers, movie user reviews are only left by hardcore movie fans or hardcore fans of a certain movie franchise. We won't know the general audience reaction until CinemaScore releases their rating, they poll actual movie-goers at a variety of locations as they exit the theater to get a general reaction for the average movie-goer. 

Edit: I see they have posted their score now. The audiences they polled gave it an average A rating, which is the 2nd highest rating after A+. 

How do you know? Lol.

Wtf is CinemaScore and why should I care about it. If they ask how the movie was right after the exiting (on location), then that is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. If someone had approached me right after I exited the theater, I would hesitate to give my honest opinion 100%. I would rather wait to get home and do what many YTers have done. Take a simple look on YT and see how many people have in depth reviews on why the movie is not good. They probably don't count do they?
