My only real criticism is one that a lot of people have brought up - way too much "shaky cam". It was completely irreverent to previous movies, series, and cannon - but it worked. They even state in the movie that they are essentially in an alternate reality due to the actions of Nero. If one goes into it expecting it to be closely related to the movies and series that came before - you'll probably be disapointed. If you view it as a stand alone or an alternate reality retelling, then one will probably quite enjoy it. Will it go down in history as a classic like "The Wrath of Khan"? Personally, I doubt it. At least it won't be for me. But, it was a very fun, action packed romp through a familiar and well known, yet changed, world. Definitely worth seeing.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
