A little sunset send-off isn't enough. :p
There weren't many scenes that gave the impression of a final farewell for the crew, which is what it badly needed.
And ASM, Generations did a terrible job of "passing on the torch" from old crew to new. The only character from the original crew that in the movie for more than a few seconds was Kirk, and he wasn't even in most of the picture! Spock wasn't there, and Bones, Chekov, and Scotty were shown for just a few short minutes after they showed Kirk "die", and that was it! It was a complete failure for what it was supposed to do.
