[ATTENTION: This review reveals content of the movie.]
This is a very good movie, but it is an error to refer to it as a prequel. The universe within which the original Star Trek occurs does not figure in this story -- indeed, it as a result of final events in Shatner's Universe that Spcok, long after his attempt to reunite Romulus with Vulcan society. In this film actions after that stardate create a time vortex into which characters travel and thereby change history even before James Kirk is born. Consequently, Kirk's personality is different, his relationship to Spock is different and a number of other vortex effects are noticeable, including the love connection between Uhuru and Spock. In this alternate universe, Vulcan will not exist. Thus, the story does not lay the background for the Star Trek I series or the franchise. Its temporal position actually occurs AFTER all the other series, including Voyager and Generations. This is a story that takes place AFTER all the other Star Treks, beginning in an alternative universe at a temporal point before any of them. This explains how Spock can be there. It also means that it is a new stage in the franchise, that entirely new plots can be written because the story continues to be the future in the form of an alternative past.
