In the world of Agatha Christie nobody is innocent, all have a dark secret they wish to keep hidden from view and it is in the capturing of the human capacity for deceit that makes Ms. Christie, almost 50 years after her death, one author from the 20th Century who makes the reader understand with absolute certainty that death is but a companion in the shadow of our hearts when it comes to the bitterness, jealousy and greed we allow to dwell in our souls.

There used to be a theory that every other Star Trek film was a little bit duff, that it just didn’t stand up to the one before it or that one that followed in its wake. For every excellent Wrath of Khan, Voyage Home and The Undiscovered Country, there is the slightly tired and sometimes reek of desperation The Search For Spock, The Final Frontier and Insurrection. Then came along J.J. Abrams, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman and their combined vision with what could be done with a much loved franchise, re-wrote history and then made two jaw dropping films on the trot. First with 2009’s reboot Star Trek and now with the daddy of them so far Star Trek Into Darkness.
