Can't help but agree with most of gornyhuy's points, especially numbers 1, 2 and 5.
That said, I enjoyed the movie -- largely because of some key performances: Veteran character actor Bruce Greenwood (as Capt. Pike) and Zachary Quinto (young Spock) were excellent, while Zoe Saldana (Uhura) looked good enough to eat.
Didn't care for Chris Pine as Capt. Kirk, though. Dude was like a college frat boy; got on my nerves.
