I've been using this gdalwarp line, though for modis land spectral data 
and not temperature:

gdalwarp -s_srs '+proj=sinu +R=6371007.181 +nadgrids=@null +wktext' 
-t_srs EPSG:4326 -srcnodata 0 -dstnodata 0 -r cubic -co "TILED=YES" -co 
"TFW=YES"  ${INFILE} ${OUTFILE}

nb it's from a bash script so change the INFILE and OUTFILE stuff, and 
if you want to you can remove the -co tiled and tfw creation options.
ymmv.
