The Abrams-era Kirk and Spock, Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto, do show up to deliver solid voiceover performances, though they're not given much to work with. Kirk's chatter is a tiresome combination of bluster and sexual innuendo, while Spock gets to constantly explain whatever the player has to do next, but their camaraderie somehow comes through. That's as close as "Star Trek" gets to capturing the old magic. At one point, you do get to take the helm of the Enterprise, but that thrill quickly dissipates when the scenario turns into a stationary shooting gallery. It's an all-too-characteristic moment of this dismal adventure. Instead of exploring strange new worlds, "Star Trek" settles for rehashing the most exhausted cliches of sci-fi video games. One-half star out of four. ___ Online:
