The characters are definitely improved here.
Uhura’s annoying tantrums are gone, Spock just has a cleaner arc and Kirk doesn’t jump between an adult and a child all the time. The heavily edited new scene for Scotty is impressive, the entire sequence just looks so professional and clean.
Even Carol is improved, regardless of the appalling acting skills Alice Eve has.

Kirk's death is better executed (pun!). The overall flow of the film is tighter and crispier, I can only imagine the number of hours the editor worked on this…

The video cuts are perfect as expected. The audio cuts are also great, there were just a few that were noticeable, but with all this audio mixing and splicing, what an incredible job to get to this final version!

This is exactly what I wanted from an edit of this film, There's certain plot elements that nothing can be done about, like the chase for Khan's magical blood when McCoy literally has one of Khan's ubermensch unfrozen right in front of him whose blood he could also use. I've seen cuts where that sequence is entirely cut out, but I think this one works best because TM2YC has managed to make Kirk's death actually land emotionally. As a result, that action sequence feels like it has stakes rather than something I felt disconnected to, which was the case during my previous viewing of this film because I was still rolling my eyes over the unearned rehash of Wrath of Khan.

All the cuts and additions TM2YC has made work to make the film far better. Uhura, in particular, benefits greatly from no longer acting like a spoiled child at Spock for being willing to sacrifice himself to save an entire planet. As does Kirk for no longer acting like a horny teenager.

Absolutely the best version of this film I've seen.

Belated review of this most excellent edit of Into Darkness!

I thoroughly enjoyed this edit, much more than the original movie! Perhaps CBS / Paramount etc could get some tips or offer TM2YC employment...? ;)

Others have noted the audio issue and that's the only issue I found while I was totally engrossed in the narrative.

This edit is great, simple as that. I very much enjoy the new Star Treks, Into Darkness the least of the 3, but I still enjoyed it. That being said, I do agree with the criticisms of it. This edit did a great job of getting rid of all the little things I didn't love about it.

TM2YC does the.. well the possible... what should have been done in the first place.

I wanted to enjoy this movie in theatres, I wanted to enjoy it when I bought the DVD to share with my dad (avid star trek fan) and I did, despite a lot of moments that make me raise my eyebrow. Why bother having Kirk demoted and repromoted? They sting you with it and immediately take it back. Spock yelling Khan in theatres got a chuckle out of me and I can't imagine that was the intended result.

That and a few other things, but this edit makes the movie what it should have been. Enjoyable from start to finish.

The edits are clean. Minor thing when a line of Spock's is changed at one point, his lips do not match up - so minor it doesn't lose points and I am sure I only noticed because I wrote the subtitles :).
