Reviews have started piling in for the upcoming "Star Trek Into Darkness" and the inevitable spoilers have followed. One review by Furious Fan Boys alleges to spoiling the entire film and its characters' identities. There is no confirmation on whether their information is true, but the spoilers seem to answer a number of questions that have been bothering the fan base for months.
MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD.
Read at your own discretion.
The big question that gets answered in the review regards the identity of John Harrison (played by Benedict Cumberbatch). Many have consistently questioned whether he might be the iconic villain Khan, but the cast repeatedly rejected that claim. However, the review asserts that Harrison is actually a cover for the iconic villain Khan. "Benedict Cumberbatch is playing Khan in Star Trek Into Darkness. All that [expletive] of him not being Khan and really 'John Harrison' was just a cover to hide the truth from moviegoers. Oh, he does go by 'John Harrison' in the movie...but that's not his real name. He reveals his name to Kirk later in the movie," writes critic Jeremy Conrad.
Aside from the identity of the villain the review also unveils a number of major spoilers. Christopher Pike (Bruce Greenwood) dies, Spock Prime makes an appearance, and Admiral Marcus is one of Khan's allies.
The publication also unveils the ending of the film, which it regards as an alternate version of the finale from the film "Wrath of Khan." "Kirk goes down into the radiation in the Budweiser plant and the hands on the glass scene is there, only it's Kirk dying." The publication notes that Kirk dies but "it's established early in the movie that Khan's blood has magical healing properties. He's the Holy Grail in a bottle, basically." How is this established? Early in the film, McCoy injects a dead Tribble with Khan's blood. Once Kirk dies, McCoy sees this Tribble come back to life and realizes that he can in fact save the Captain. Spock and Uhura capture Khan and utilize his blood to save Kirk.
"Star Trek Into Darkness" releases on May 17, 2013.
