Just saw it yesterday and it was maybe not quite the ride I wanted, more of a tries to hook you in and does but still struggles to keep you. Really neat elements like Kahn and Peter Wellers character both enhanced the intrigue. I think it still rates as better then many Star Trek films, was hoping it had the same feel as part 6 the undiscovered country, almost got there but not quite. If anything the visuals, everything from alien races to weapons to ships reminded me more of star wars, perhaps even more than the actual Star Wars prequels so bodes well for J.J.'s next project.
