I saw it today. I enjoyed it, though flawed. I agree with the opinions of the last 6 pages that I skimmed over. I think the script was a lazy, hack version of a pretty good story. I think the directing was ok but the guy need to pull back so we can see something. The bad guy and his motivation was lame. Didn't like Uhura and Chekov shouldn't have been there. BUT, since everything was based on time changing once Kirk's dad died, everything we know is out the window.
I agree with MP on the comic reboot idea. It doesn't really work in comics but I enjoy it working with this and OO7. It's a clean slate without saying everything else is void because older Spock being around shows that all that we know still "exists."
