Just saw the film! I enjoyed it quite a lot. On the topic of Kirk's death, I thought it was an impressive example of how the film used homage to take what would normally be cheesy scenes and make them powerful and effective. Spock shouting "Khaaaaan!", Kirk sacrificing himself in the core and then being revived later, these are obvious echos of the original films in all their cheesy glory, yet invoking the older film made them work. The film being about Kirk and Spock coming to understand each other with the whole passion/logic thing made their reversal of roles from the classic film more powerful, and I found it quite compelling. Good film! Edit: I'm sure these are all points that everyone's said and showed up in the Current Releases review, but I just wanted to say that where others might have felt the film leaned too heavily on its relation to Wrath of Khan, I thought it was a great way to let the film do scenes that otherwise wouldn't have worked in this day and age.
