Star Trek movies are, for the most part, action focused instead of story or plot focused. But there have still been some movies that exemplified Star Trek fairly well. The Motion Picture, though much maligned, is a good example, as is Star Trek IV, though it's a bit campy. In Star Trek VI the values of Star Trek come through pretty well.
The movies were different than the TV show but there was still a shadow of the values and intellectualism from the show in the movies. For the modern remakes that's simply completely absent. And imagining that a show made by people who don't understand Star Trek will somehow begin to embody its values and qualities is, frankly, magical thinking.
It'll be fast-paced, it'll be gritty, it'll be dark, it'll be chock full of action and "intrigue" but it'll be brain-dead.
