It's a good popcorn flick of summer basically, like what most movies are during this time of year. Lots of fighting and explosions. To me, it was an interesting interpretation of how these people got together as a crew.
I definitely would say though this movie is a mix of a reboot and an alternate reality. Perhaps even Old Spock hails from an alternate reality future after the events of Nemesis (and yes, I did read the Countdown comic that shows the events before this new movie)
I say this because of the a number of things having been one whom watched the Original Series as well as TNG, DS9, and a bit of Voyager (not a fan of the last one there) A lot of things were altered. The Enterprise for sure being a prime example. Other things would be how the crew got their ranks and stuff...
One of the big events in the movie alone though alters a number of things that occured in the previous TOS movies as well as stuff in all the other Trek shows as it has played a part somehow in all of them.
And as we know with the rabid fans (Are there still those out kind of people out there?), it won't be looked at as canon to the whole Trek-verse.
So, that's why I say, call it an alternate reality of how the OS crew of the Enterprise got together since otherwise, when Kirk and Spock were working together in the old show, they were wearing the turtleneck uniforms both pilot episodes had them wearing and stuff. LOL
The real nitpick to me... Not enough of Bones. XD Karl Urban is DeForest Kelley reincarnated. They just didn't give him enough screen time. Especially bouncing him off Kirk and Spock.
Otherwise, again a solid actiony summer movie.
