Plenty of verve, so what about the plot

The movie was great fun, it kept me on the edge of my seat, and if you think this is the sort of thing you *might* like, then rest assured that you *will.*
Now for the quibbles:
1. The plot was tortuous, in part because it used time-travel paradoxes to free the Trek franchise of accumulated baggage--a good thing, but still.
2. At stake was the survival of the Earth, but these seafaring yarns do best when the lone captain must confront a challenge that's big compared to him but rather small compared to his country and its navy.
3. The Vulcans seemed too human--a shame, because their alien nature is their chief attraction.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
