Star Trek Into Darkness [2013]
J.J. Abrams makes well-executed but benign PG-13 pop culture, and he has done it again with his second “Star Trek” movie, which seems like just the second part of a reboot. Kirk cries in the first act, then Spock shows he has feelings in the third.

Super 8 (2011)
Steven Spielberg presents and J.J. Abrams directs a crappy mash-up of Spielberg’s early work — the kids (including a fat one) on an adventure in “Goonies,” the lens glare in “Close Encounters” and an alien who wants to go home. Naturally, it’s set in 1979.

Star Trek (2009)
The 11th movie based on the cult television series re-starts the franchise — a perfunctory but well-executed exercise complete with childhood backstories. But illogically, this Spock is an unlikable, vengeful Vulcan, and Leonard Nimoy’s appearance feels forced.
