They are action movies. Star trek was never about action.

This has always been Star Trek's dichotomy. Many ships called Enterprise have been blown up (in a permanent, non-time travel magic way), and it happened in the movies.

The movies are action. The series are where the characters and universe are built.

Just messing up a ship doesn't make it action. For a canonical example, see the Titanic.

Star Trek movies are like if the Titanic had to fight off the combined fleets of all WW1 and WW2 powers.

There's a reason the ships get blown up.
