Well, I'm a long time Metroid fan, played it since NES days and have had pretty much every metroid game, even Hunters Pinball.
I damn sure appreciate the current characterization of Samus, because now she's an actual character in which I see some similarities and can realistically comprehend some of the motives behind her actions.
To me, Other M is being a pure Metroid experience, overhauled with the deeper portrayal of Samus. And since Other M is supposed to be a bridge-story between the events of Super Metroid and Fusion, without Prime in between as well, there hasn't been a scene or character portrayal so far that feels out of line.
Probably the majority of long time fans don't like the current direction, but to me, it's been an amazing experience so far, even rivaling the experience that I had the first time I played Prime on the GC.

Pure Metriod experience? A warrior that saved the universe is moody emo cry baby.
No this is not metriod. And "spoilers below"
It's a military conspiracy wow how imaginative a plot thats never been used in hundreds of movies and stories

To me it's being a pure Metroid experience, I've been having the same feelings about the gameplay and exploration that I had with Super Metroid the first time that I played it on the SNES.
To you it may not be, but alas, you can't speak for me 
The story may be a bit cliché at this point, but it's well executed, and that's just an added bonus for an already good Metroid experience.
Once again, this is also from a long time Metroid fan. Unlike some of you, who have said that only newcomers to the series are the ones to only appreciate Other M and long time fans hate it, to me it's the contrary.
I won't still rate Other M, not until I finish it, but it's easily sitting in my Top 3 so far.

Sorry I didn't want to speak for you
I should add IMHO,
But if I had to have a game with bad acting and story, they should leave that stuff out addition by subtraction
