Paramount+ unleashes a new Star Trek movie, Section 31, directly to streaming, hot on the heels of Lower Decks and in anticipation of Strange New Worlds Season 3. This roughly 100-minute film centers on Michelle Yeoh's Star Trek: Discovery character, Philippa Georgiou, and her involvement with Starfleet's clandestine Section 31.
Critical reception, however, has been less than stellar. IGN's Jordan Hoffman gave it a dismal 2/10, criticizing its potential to alienate longtime fans while failing to engage others. He highlighted Yeoh's fight scenes as the only redeeming quality.
Despite the negative reviews, you might still be intrigued. If you're considering watching Star Trek: Section 31 online, here's where to find it:
