I admire the effort; I'm glad it's a success (especially with mainstream audiences), but I found the movie still too business as usual.

Spoiler:

-Lame villain (seriously, a pissed off labor foreman?)
-Big scary villain ship
-super weapon (WMD!)
-plot to destroying Earth and/or Federation
-time travel
-Overused Wrath of Khan plot structure remains (WOK is great, but like one person said in previous entries..."when did all Trek films become WOK?")
-Plot holes abound

One thing was missing was Data malfunctioning/going bad...which would be hard to work into the Kirk-era setting.

I did find the movie fairly entertaining and would go see a sequel.
