I know it's an AU but I kept expecting them to go into the future and fix the Romulan thing. I suppose it's possible Spock will do so eventually since Ambassador Spock did the mind-meld, which would close this whole universe off. Time travel and loops make my head hurt. So, we pretty much have no Vulcans now which is a huge change.
I did sort of notice the lack of female characters when I saw Winona Rider was in it and I had to think of a female character she might have been. Uhura was the only real one; Spock's mother only got a few scenes. Feh.
a scene of the Enterprise rising up out of the atmosphere of Titan with Saturn framed in the back of it that was cool
Oh yeah, I loved that scene!
I thought it was unbelievable coincidence that Kirk came across older Spock and near a base too, but then all the Star Trek AUs were full of things like younger characters (here Uhura and Chekhov) getting born anyway and all ending up together) so my personal handwave if the viscosity of time.
Also, wouldn't a planet-eating black hole suck the moon in too?
I didn't like the dog joke either. I'd have exiled Scotty for that too. I loved him apart from that though.
I posted my own review, but I'm happy to discuss the film here.
