Star Trek already has established multiple ways of travelling back in time. Why not reuse one rather than inventing more. Wormholes I believe are the most scientifically feasible; time-space can be different at each end. This would happen for example, if one end of the wormhole aged faster than another, say it had travelled at close to the speed of light for a while. Blackholes generally depending on the size either spaghettifies or traps you in time before the event horizon. Also as far as I know the idea that things that go in to a blackhole come out a whitehole is outdated. Hawking radiation allows some "information" to slowly escape but not a ship the size of Nero's. IANAP (not a physicist).

I loved this movie. Very fun and pretty true to Star Trek. The aliens actually looked less human-like which made parts feel Star Wars-ish.

Spoiler warning!

Some parts were stupid:
Travelling through time via a black hole?
When being pulled so fast that the ship is held stationary at warp speed, dumping the warp core would mean the ship would be snapped back into the pulling force, it isnt.
Old Spock's reason for not going with Kirk is silly given what was at stake.
Diving from space onto a platform within the atmosphere: why didn't they burn up?

Anyway, I still loved the movie and will watch it again some day. I look forward to a sequel.
