It's 12% on Rotten Tomatoes? Travesty! It's a fun and lighthearted movie that I have seen more than a couple times. There are much worse movies with higher scores on RT. And it's very close to reality 6.1 on IMDb. Bleeh, tells you all you need to know about RTDown Periscope
Seriously, screw RT:

I rarely agree with their scores.
It's a movie that gets a lot of the Navy stuff dead on and gets a lot of the Navy stuff terribly wrong. Just like Star Trek. It's a favorite among Navy submariners because it captures the irreverent attitude of theirs to a tee.

Rotten Tomatoes is the crookedest movie-related site out there; if they want to really push a certain movie with a certain agenda, they'll delete any negative review of it so it has a 100% positive rating, like they did with Black Panther; they already proved their reviews are completely based on race, not quality.
Worf The Ape Man: Worf's runabout crashes in the middle of a jungle. The runabout is swallowed by (nasty alien) quicksands and Worf barely escapes alive with nothing of his technology left, plus the shock made him an amnesiac. He now lives with the local apes. When Jadzia finally retrieve him, he's all but forgotten language. "Me Worf, you Jadzia." is the first thing he manages to say to her.
Turkish Star Trek (easy)
Sand Pebbles in a different setting would have been a Star Trek movie. (Robert Wise film, too)
The Black Hole had a very Roddenberrian obsession with gods and creators, etc. Make the Palomino crew a landing party from Enterprise and you've got a Star Trek movie.
Anything from Horatio Hornblower.
Master and Commander

The Exorcist: Worf is possessed by Fek'lhr The Guardian of Gre'thor. He speaks softly and politely. He can't stand live food and becomes a vegetarian! He never says a word about battles, honor, and dresses in three-piece-suits. Jadzia through her Klingon friends gets two monks from Boreth to show up...

Eh, I really didn’t like it either.
You're entitled to your wrong opinion
Opinions are neither right nor wrong.
This remind me of a political commentator whose motto in every article was "often wrong, never uncertain."
Was he talking about himself?
well I for one am writing a strongly worded letter to management about this !!!You're entitled to your wrong opinion
edit: Critics and general audiences having wildly different opinions about a film isn't really anything new. I quite enjoyed the new Independence Day movie, yeah it was dumb, yeah it was badly written, yeah there was an entire character whose whole purpose was to get audiences in China. The critics are right, it's an awful movie by any standard, yet I was somehow entertained by it.
“Trek-like films” aren’t Trek-like by definition.

Down Periscope was hilarious, and had a little heart to it as well.
