I think I've seen all her films...
Star Trek was pretty good. In a "new action flick" kinda way. It is *not* a traditional Trek film though. I'm not sure I was thrilled with the visuals, but then I've never been one for the current technique of putting blur and absurd action movement combined with camera motions (even when CGI!) in order to make things look "fast". You end up not being able to see anything. Unfortunately, that's the trend, so I guess I'll deal with it (harumph!).
The plot was "OK". As a couple people mentioned, this is essentially an alternate timeline, so while the broad events and people are the same, the events surrounding them are different. That way they could write stuff and not worry about the fanbase pulling out obscure references and quibbling about continuity. Of course, that also means that nothing is "real" in the sense of the history of Trek, so if you were looking for a story detailing the early events of the original crew, you're not getting it in this film.
Dunno. It was worth the price of admission, especially since I went with a group of friends. But I wouldn't qualify it as the "best" Trek film, or even in the top 4 or 5.
