I don't think William Shatner did that bad of a job directing the actors.

This is true, however Shatner should never be allowed to direct himself in anything ever again. I can't remember which part it was precisely, but there was one moment during the film that made me laugh out loud because Shatner just overdid it so much. I know he's never been known for being a great actor by any means, but most of the other directors throughout Trek's history have done a good job of keeping his overacting in check ... but that doesn't exactly work when he himself is the director.
