Following the success of *Lower Decks* and in anticipation of *Strange New Worlds* Season 3, Paramount+ has released a new Star Trek movie straight to streaming. Clocking in at approximately 100 minutes, this special focuses on Michelle Yeoh's character, Philippa Georgiou, from *Star Trek: Discovery*, and the clandestine Starfleet division, Section 31. Early reviews, however, suggest this may not be the most celebrated addition to the Star Trek universe. One critic gave it a scathing 2/10, citing potential frustration for longtime fans and a general lack of appeal for others, though praising Yeoh's action sequences as a highlight.
Despite mixed initial reactions, you might still be curious about *Star Trek: Section 31*. If you're considering watching, here's where to find it:
